About me
My research interests are in the areas of Computational Biology and Chemistry, Bioinformatics, Computer Aided Drug Design, Computational Biophysics, Quantum Chemical Calculations, Crystallography etc. I wish to collaborate with different research areas expert; such as, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Microbiology and Botany. The research area includes HIV, Hepatitis, Parkinson, Alzheimer, Cancer, Epilepsy, Human Papilloma virus (HPV) and recent pandemic disease SARS Covid-19. I am interested in protein-ligand interactions, chemical reactions of enzyme (QM/MM), DNA-Ligand interactions, Protein conformational dynamics and Quantum Pharmacology.
