His research group is now increasingly focusing on infectious diseases, human pathogens and vectors of human diseases. He is using genomic and proteomic strategies to investigate biomarkers for infectious diseases including tuberculosis and malaria; and to identify molecules associated with host responses to infections in different chronic meningitis cases. Using proteogenomic principles, he is carrying out genome annotation of vector mosquitoes such as Anopheles stephensi and Aedes aegypti. He is an editorial board member for the Journal of Proteomics and Bioinformatics and also for the Journal of Proteins and Proteomics and a reviewer for the journals Molecular and Cellular Proteomics, PLOS One, Journal of Proteomics, Proteomics , Trends in Molecular Medicine, Genomics, BMC Bioinformatics, Bioinformatics, BBA - Proteins and Proteomics, Database (Oxford Journal), DNA Research, Bioinformatics and Biology Insights, Indian Journal of Medical Research , Journal of Ethnopharmacology, Journal of Neurosciences in Rural Practice, International Journal of Rheumatic Diseases and International Journal of Molecular Sciences.
