My primary research interest is in exploring the influence of prolonged stress in early life on developing chronic pain conditions later in life. I'm particularly interested in utilising ML algorithms to process complex behavioural data with respect to animal pose estimation and bioacoustics. In addition to my research pursuits, I was previously a teaching fellow for an introductory neuroscience course in the Department of Psychology, Ashoka University. My long-term goals lie in making STEM-related fields more academically accessible and foster a love for scientific inquiry among anyone who is curious enough to want to learn.
