About me

I am a Senior Scientist at Schrodinger, working on internal drug discovery programs. Our team specializes in fragment-based drug discovery (FBDD) using Schrodinger's platform, combining the robustness of physics-based methods with the scalability of machine learning (ML).

Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Center for Applied Structural Discovery (CASD) of the Biodesign Institute at Arizona State University. In this role, I performed large-scale atomistic simulation of respiratory complexes to understand the chemo-mechanical coupling underlying the conversion of chemical energy into mechanical energy.

During my PhD in the Mertz group at West Virginia University, I have studied a pH-sensitive cell-penetrating peptide, pHLIP, for developing a novel cancer-targeting agent. For details on my past research, click here

Apart from my research, I have volunteered to teach workshops aimed at teaching scientific computing to students, researchers and faculties. Click here for more details.

I have been a guest blogger for Biophysical Society during annual meetings in 2015, 2016 and 2017. You can see my posts here.
