Overview
I am a postdoctoral Scholar working with Dr.Rajalingam Raja, who is the director of Immunogenetics and Transplantation Laboratory (ITL) at UCSF. My contributions have been recognized with the ASHI (The American Society for Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics) scholar award for the year 2022.
Additionally, I have taken on the role of guest editor for the journal "Cells" Special Issue titled "The Molecular Mechanism of Vascular Remodeling." During my PhD, my research focused on studying the diversity of NK cell receptors within the Southern Indian population. My findings highlighted the protective role of the NK cell receptor KIR in HIV disease progression.
Currently, my work at UCSF delves into unraveling the functions of NK cell receptors KIR and FcR in kidney transplantation and their implications in SARS-CoV-2. Our research initiatives involve NK cell-based immune assays, aimed at identifying potential biomarkers for kidney transplant rejection. Moreover, I am actively involved in a desensitization study targeting plasma cells to decrease HLA antibodies, facilitating kidney transplantation for highly sensitized waitlist candidates. Within this clinical trial, I utilize multicolor flow cytometry to analyze B cell subpopulations, seeking to comprehend the therapeutic impact of plasma cell depletion.
Main theme of my research is to study the influence of host immunogenetic factors against infectious diseases and transplanted organs through molecular and cellular biological approaches.
