I am a multidisciplinary researcher with an extensive background in the biophysical and biochemical characterization of membrane proteins and lipid membranes. I want to apply the knowledge gained through my work to develop life-saving medicine.
My work combines and intersects physics, chemistry, biochemistry, computer science, medicine, engineering, mathematics, and structural biology.
I use GitHub to collaborate on various projects related to my research work.
My work has a main emphasis on G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), which make the largest family of membrane proteins in the human genome and are involved in almost all physiological and pathophysiological processes of the body. Through my work, I have been trying to understand how various factors in the cellular environment modulate the activation of GPCRs and develop ways to extract this information.
