Brief profile:
After taking both Masters (2001) and PhD (2007) in Veterinary Bacteriology, I am working at CIBA since November, 2013 on disease surveillance at brackishwater aquaculture systems and molecular detection and characterization of pathogens. I currently work in the division of Aquatic Animal Health and Environment. I conducted disease surveillance study in three districts of West Bengal and one district of Odisha. My study reiterated the fact that Early Mortality Syndrome (EMS) is not present in West Bengal and Odisha. Before joining CIBA, I worked on Seafood Microbiology in CIFT with special reference toListeria monocytogenes and Bacillus cereus. I have interests in Bioinformatics study fish and shrimp pathogens.
Research areas:
- Surveillance of diseases in brackishwater aquaculture systems of West Bengal and Odisha
- Molecular characterization and detection of brackishwater finfish and shrimp pathogens
- Study of shrimp culture in biofloc based system with special reference to disease resistance
Current Research Projects:
| NO | Title | Funded By |
| 1 | National surveillance programme for aquatic animal diseases | NFDB |
| 2 | Aquatic animal diseases and intervention tools for their management | Institute |
| 3 | Sustainable brackishwater aquaculture production of shrimp and fishes through an innovative and integrated approach | Institute |
