Research Interest:

My area of research lies in the domain of medicinal chemistry, computational studies (Density functional theory, molecular docking, Homology modeling, MD-simualtion) and Optoelelctronics. I develop novel heterocyclic compounds and evaluate their biological activities (anti-cancer and anti-protozoal activity). I also exploit Opioid molecules as anti- depression agent and their application in transdermal drug delivery.
