Trying to understand the molecular mechanism of Notch and other signaling pathways involved in neural stem cell fate specification.

Involved in identifying the role of Notch and other bHLH transcription factors in the formation of new glutamatergic circuits during temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE)

I am involved in transdifferentiation of Umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cells into neural lineage, specifically into ocular fate specified cells.

I am involved with identification of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) specific markers and characterization of their role in RGC differentiation.

Involved in identification and characterization of various signaling cross talk with Notch signaling and other regulatory mechanisms involved in the proliferation and fate specific differentiation of neural progenitors

I am involved in development of a biodegradable scaffold for transplantation of ocular fate specified cells.
