Research Interests

Microbial communities play a pivotal role in human and animal productivity as well as overall wellbeing. Understanding and modelling the naturally occurring complex microbial communities of gut and indigenously fermented foods and might have a potential to enhance the productivity and prevent various diseases. I'm interested in the development of food and feed based bio-therapeutics with wide array of applications for human and animals. More precisely, the areas of interests are:
Understanding the Microbial Diversity of Indigenous Fermented Foods and Human Gut.
Development of Biotherapeutics for humans and animals.
Formulation of microbial starters for antagonism and detoxification in food ecosystem.

Teaching interests

I teach subjects related to microbiology, especially Food and Nutrition and industrial microbiology at Graduate and undergraduate level.
