Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
I hold a PhD in Biochemistry from the University of Mysore, India, focusing on cardiovascular diseases. My thesis examined the effects of environmental pollutants (such as pesticides and exhaust particles) and physiological toxins (AGE and MPO-mediated oxidized products) on High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL). I completed postdoctoral research in cell biology, investigating signalling pathways in microglia activation and chemotaxis. I led two government-funded research projects, focusing on the antic
