What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can apply my skills in machine learning and bioinformatics to drive impactful research and contribute to advancements in healthcare.

I am a results-driven Data Scientist and Bioinformatician with a strong passion for applying machine learning and deep learning techniques to biological data. My journey in this field has equipped me with the ability to extract meaningful insights from complex datasets, driving innovation in genomics and healthcare. I have a proven track record of contributing to impactful research outcomes, which I believe is crucial in advancing our understanding of biological systems.

Currently, I serve as an Assistant Professor at Parul University, where I teach undergraduate and postgraduate students in Bioinformatics and Deep Learning. My role involves developing course content on topics such as genomics and AI applications in life sciences, as well as supervising student research projects. Previously, I interned at Sabudh Foundation, where I developed a road scene analysis project that significantly enhanced image segmentation accuracy. My internships have provided me with hands-on experience in bioinformatics, biotechnology lab techniques, and machine learning, allowing me to refine my skills and contribute effectively to various projects.
