Hi! I’m a Research Scientist-I at PGIMER Chandigarh, working at the intersection of intestinal organoid development, host-pathogen interaction, and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) research. My work involves modeling human gut diseases using organoids to better understand host-microbiome dynamics and explore microbiome-based therapeutic strategies — especially probiotics. With hands-on experience in translational research and complex in vitro models, I help students, researchers, and young professionals with: • Designing organoid-based experiments • Investigating gut microbiota & host response in IBD • Building impactful research projects & publications • Career transitions from academia to biotech • Exploring international research opportunities
