What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment that fosters innovation and growth in data science.

I am a dedicated PhD candidate at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, where I am developing an innovative alignment framework for ORFan protein sequences. My research focuses on leveraging data parallelism for high-performance computing systems, addressing significant gaps in existing alignment tools. This work not only contributes to the field of bioinformatics but also enhances the understanding of protein families through advanced clustering techniques.

With a strong background in computer technology and engineering, I have accumulated diverse experience in both academic and practical settings. My roles have included project associate and assistant, where I contributed to significant research projects involving big data processing and bio-application design. As a freelancer and data science trainer, I have honed my skills in coding and teaching, focusing on machine learning, artificial intelligence, and deep learning concepts.
