After completing of master's degree in MFSc from ICAR – CIFE 2010, I joined ICAR – CIBA as a Scientist in 2014. Currently, I work in Aquatic Animal Health & Environment division. My current research area is focused on Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP), the emerging microsporidian epidemiology, therapeutics, and diagnostics. Also, I am working on the investigation of uncertain mortalities in shrimp hatcheries Penaeus vannamei due to zoea-2 syndrome and in shrimp grow-out system due to White feces syndrome (WFS). My research interest is on shrimp larval pathology, disease epidemiology, and disease diagnostics.
