Reactive species

RESEARCH

Our group designs, synthesizes and evaluates organic compounds that can produce reactive species in a spatiotemporally controlled manner as tools for biochemical and cell biological studies. Biological reactive species are produced during normal metabolism but elevated levels can cause irreparable damage to cells.

We are looking for highly motivated students to join our group as doctoral students. Please apply formally through the IISER Pune portal (Link). We do not have openings for internships.
