He was earlier researcher in European Collection of Cell Culture at the Centre for Applied Microbiology and Research (CAMR). His main research interest is to investigate the underlying concept of molecular events that are associated with trophoblast invasion (and its control) as a model of tumour invasiveness. His laboratory focuses on the role of invasion specific novel factors such as cancer-testis antigens (CT antigens) and onco-foetal proteins during placental invasion. Dr Sivasubramaniam is investigating the molecular events / factors that are involved during placentation in normal and pre-eclamptic pregnancies.
