Aradhana Priyadarsini — Product Engineer
I have joined the Deep Ocean Mission marine project at ILS Bhubaneswar, assigned to Dr. Sunil Raghav. Currently, I am learning techniques involved in next generation sequencing for the project, in addition to immunology techniques and computational biology as part of lab work. Being in the lab, brainstorming new ideas and understanding the nuances of the experiments have always encouraged me. So, I am extremely excited about it and I hope to contribute significantly to the project and marine research. 2017-2024: As a PhD Scholar at IIT Guwahati (under the supervision of Prof. V. S. Moholkar), I am passionate and intrigued about bacterial fermentations and the molecular techniques associated with them. I am an aspiring COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGIST. My doctoral research revolves around gas fermentation-based biological gas to liquid (BioGTL) techniques for the enhancement of methane (C1) capture and waste-to-energy conversion that encompasses the UN's sustainable development goals: SDG 7 (Affordable and clean energy) and SDG 13 (climate action). In a nutshell, I used PCR techniques for gene detection, statistically optimized the methanol production process, intensified methane bioconversion through sonication techniques and studied the structure and ligand interaction of methane monooxygenase enzyme catalyst using computational biology techniques (sequence alignment, homology modelling, molecular docking and molecular dynamic simulations). Summarily, my extensive research background encompasses key research skills in bacterial fermentation, bioprocess engineering, molecular biology techniques, analytical skills, programming languages and computational biology, which enable me to apply innovative and interdisciplinary approaches to my research work. My ultimate goal is to contribute SUSTAINABLY to the advancement of science by leveraging the principles and applications of biotechnology.
