Research

Area of research interest:

Cardio-pulmonary and cardio-metabolic research, Human genetics research.

Obesity-driven metabolic diseases are the major drivers of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in the modern era. My research interest is to study on CVD and to discover novel markers, effectors, and predictors of cardio metabolic disease, which refers to the nexus of cardiovascular disease and obesity-driven diseases like type 2diabetes.

Worked as research fellow in various research project:

  1. Title of the Project (2012-2015):  Nutritional and cardio respiratory status of tribal children of Tripura: Development of reference standard for spirometry. (ICMR Funding).

  2. Title of the Project (2017-2018):  Assessment of iodine status in pregnant women of some selected district of India. (ICMR Funding).

  3. Title of the project (2018-2019): Consumption pattern of food and food products / items high in fat salt and sugar among selected cities /towns and rural population of India. (ICMR Funding)
