Research Experience
In pulsed dipolar spectroscopy (PDS), a pair of spin probes are attached to the selected positions of a protein and the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) signal is recorded. The distance between the probes is measured by statistical analysis of the PDS signal. The measured distances are used in resolving protein structures, and protein-protein interactions.
At ACERT (national lab), Cornell University, I have developed an analytic platform using Python for PDS signal analysis in a fully automated fashion. I have derived the functional forms of various PDS signals and utilized those in fast simulations of 1D and 2D spectra.
More About My Research Activities
Proteins & Electron Spin Resonance
Magnetic resonance spectroscopy plays a key role in protein structure determination. I work on developing signal processing tools & novel spectroscopic techniques.
PDSsimu
Certain PDS spectral simulations require serious computation power. PDSsimu utilizes analytic signal expressions and run the simulations on personal computers with comparable accuracy.
ExPDS
Extracting protein structural data from PDS signal is a challenging problem. I have developed ExPDS, which analyses the PDS signal with high accuracy in a fully automated method.
I was the co-founder and CEO at TheTimesBlog.com, a digital media platform aimed towards publishing visually rich business stories and distributing the content to a targeted audience. In 2 years, we have worked with 40+ start-ups, brands, and entrepreneurs in India, including Lenskart, Macmillan Education, Foyr, and many more.
