Postgraduate in Pharmaceutical Research (KU Leuven)

PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences (KUL, Belgium)

Development of HPLC and capillary electrophoresis (CE) based economic analytical method for the assay of small drugs is the core interest of my group.


Application of chemometrics in Pharmaceutical and Phytochemical profiling is my active research interest currently. Besides, Chemometric-based enzyme kinetic studies is also a new research wing in my group. 


Metabolic profiling of phytochemical as a means of biomarker discovery by using analytical tools like IR, HPLC and NMR is under consideration in an upcoming project.


Application of Omics techniques (genomic, transcriptomics and proteomics) in context of Phytochemistry and Agriculture (Arabidopsis thaliana) will also be pursued in near future as well.
