Microbial Pathogenesis • Deep Learning • LLMs • Drug Discovery

I am a PhD Candidate at Tripura University, India, where I try to bridge microbial pathogenesis with AI. My research focuses on creating workflows and datasets, identifying novel antimicrobial agents with LLMs for Drug Discovery to combat multidrug-resistant WHO priority pathogens, and building data-driven workflows to repurpose existing drugs into faster, more efficient therapeutic pipelines.

Currently working as Project Technical Support - III at an ICMR-funded project and selected as an ASM Future Leaders Mentorship Fellow (2026-28). I also serve as an NEP Saarthi Ambassador appointed by UGC, conducting workshops and promoting key policies of the University Grants Commission and Ministry of Education (Govt. of India).
