Biography

I am a highly skilled researcher with expertise in optical engineering and photothermal therapeutics. I hold a Ph.D. from the Academy of Scientific & Innovative Research, Central Scientific Instruments Organisation, and have conducted extensive research on the optical properties of plasmonic photothermal therapeutics. In addition to academic achievements such as being a Gold Medallist in Optical Engineering, I have made significant contributions to the field.

In my current role as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the University of Glasgow, I am working with a project funded by the US National Institutes of Health-National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering. My project focuses on optimizing singlet oxygen dosimetry for photodynamic therapy and developing innovative Time-Resolved Singlet Oxygen Luminescence Detection systems.

My research has been recognized through awards, publications in prestigious journals, and presentations at national and international conferences. I am proficient in programming languages such as C, Matlab, COMSOL, Zemax, and LabVIEW. Additionally, I have hands-on experience with various experimental equipment.

I am passionate about biophotonics and nanophotonics and always eager to explore new opportunities to advance optical engineering and biophotonics. If you are interested in potential collaborations, let's connect and work together to drive impactful advancements.

Research interests

Currently, I am working on the application of single photon detector in biomedical field such as qunatification of dose of photosensiztozers during photodynamic and nanoparticles during photothermal therapy for enhnace the efficiacy of cancer treatment. I am planning to develop a system for qunatification of optical properties of tumor region in presence of nanoparticles and dyes that can help into the multimodal cancer treatment.
