I graduated from the Institute of Chemical Technology (Mumbai, India) and then received my PhD in Pharmacology from Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA where I studied sex-specific effects of chaperone and microglial defenses in Lewy body disorders. In my spare time I enjoy cooking, reading, writing, and traveling to new places.

Research: I am using region-specific human brain organoids to determine vulnerabilities to glioblastomas across space and time.
