Biography
Her Educational Qualification: Ph.D. (Marine Science) CSIR- National Institute of Oceanography (affiliation Goa University), Masters of Science (Marine Biology) Cochin University of Science and Technology and Bachelor of Science (Environmental Sciences) Mount Carmel College, Bangalore University. The prime area of her interest is deep-sea sediment geomicrobiology. She focus on carbon-fixation processes of microbes, their rates, distribution and diversity in oligotrophic and extreme environments. She take immense interest in data generation and analysis for mapping of geomicrobial details of environments on global scale. The microbial connection for major interactions among Geosphere-Biosphere-Exosphere would be the driving motivation for all her attempted work. At present she have started her practice on the field of anaerobic geomicrobiology and bioenergetics implications in continuum to her earlier studies on predominantly oxic systems, with the aid of DST Fast Track Fellowship at the Bioenergy Group of MACS-ARI.
