I am a PhD student in Biomedical Engineering and will be working on dynamic and adaptive breast cancer models. My research will focus on developing 3D in vitro models that replicate the complexity of the breast cancer tumor microenvironment, enabling a deeper understanding of tumor progression and responses to treatment.
I completed my Master’s in Biomedical Engineering at IIT Hyderabad, I bring hands-on experience with hydrogels, material characterisation, rheology, 3D printing, and stem cell culture, previously applied to bone and cartilage tissue engineering. This background will guide my approach to designing functional models and integrating TME cells to study cell-matrix interactions
Outside the lab, I enjoy reading fiction, cooking, strength training, and spending time walking, talking, and being in nature.
In tissue engineering, extrusion-based 3D printing (EBP) offers precise material deposition at a cost-effective price. However, current EBP methods often rely on homogeneous inks, limiting their application in fields that require controlled inhomogeneities, like biomedical engineering. The challenge lies in achieving precise control over material structure and composition during printing. In this context, the ERC-funded […]
