My research lies at the interface of chemistry and biology, driven by the premise that fundamental chemical events underpin most biological processes. I am particularly interested in harnessing the power of small molecules as chemical probes to interrogate and manipulate complex biological systems, with strong translational relevance to biomedical research and drug discovery. As part of ongoing DBT/Wellcome Trust India Alliance Intermediate Fellowship, our aim is to develop bespoke RNA-binding small molecules as chemical probing tools to interrogate RPIs and unravel their role in toxic aggregate formation in neurological disorders.
