Brief Background :

I completed my BSc and MSc in Biotechnology from Rajarshi Shahu Mahavidyalaya (Autonomous), Latur affiliated to Swami Ramanand Teerth Marathwada University, Nanded. During my MSc, I worked at Agharkar Research Institute, Pune, where my dissertation focused on the diatom diversity of alkaline lakes. Currently, as a Research Fellow, I am part of a project sponsored by the Department of Archaeology, Tamil Nadu, under the guidance of Dr. Karthick Balasubramaniam. Currently, my work involves studying diatoms and their palaeoenvironmental significance in an archaeological context, which contributes to our understanding of past ecosystems and their role in human history.

My research focuses on examining diatom diversity and their paleoenvironmental significance within archaeological contexts. I aim to analyze diatom assemblages from selected sites across Tamil Nadu to reconstruct past environmental conditions and understand the interplay between ancient human activities and their natural surroundings.
