   About

An ardent and dedicated teacher, I possess a vast teaching experience. I have trained and guided several undergraduate and post graduate students. A disciplined and humble person, I like to work in a team. I have devoted almost 25 years of my carrier and service for patient care in diagnostic services. My areas of interest are Cytopathology, Oncopathology, Neuropathology and Hemoglobinopathy. A vigilant and punctual administrator, I always try to perform the task allotted to me with outmost care and dedication. My passion is teaching post graduate students, and I enjoy it the most. I recently been awarded a best researcher for systematic review in a Research Showcase event at AIIMS Bhopal in the year 23. This really has motivated me to do better and I recently been granted a ICMR Task Force project for establishment of Reference Interval for Indian Population. My nonacademic area of interest is Counselling Psychology in which I did MA from IGNOU. Photography is my leisure time activity and is a stress buster for me. I love to work and explore new things.
