Characterisation of neuromodulator mechanisms for analgesic effects of transcutaneous spinal stimulation; spinal cord electrophysiology in rats to identify the effects of transcutaneous spinal direct current stimulation (tsDCS) on spinal cord nociceptive neurons, supraspinal modulatory regions, and their descending fibres. Research aims involve identifying the mechanisms underlying the lasting effects of tsDCS on spinal network dynamics in acute and chronic pain models. Chemogenetic manipulations will also be utilised to assess secondary hyperalgesia in an inflammatory arthritis model.

I am a Researcher. I have excellent skills in computer science, biomedical engineering, neuroscience, data science, cancer cell biology, and bioinformatics. Currently, I am working on the CASP15 project, In this project I am working on protein structure prediction with the help of a machine-learning algorithm and also I am working on a neuroscience project at FENS. Previously I have done many thesis and project work in terms of neuroscience with the help of natural language processing, and deep learning. I am also doing my research in cancer biology in an open lab at Cancer Research UK.
My Area of Interest:- Clinical Research in Medicine, Neuroscience, Cell Biology, Cancer Biology, Computer Science and related fields, etc.

I am currently a senior postdoctoral researcher at the University of Glasgow. My research involves designing, simulating, fabricating, and testing neuromodulation devices with a diverse range of modalities, including optogenetic, magnetic, and thermal. I go from using state-of-the-art software to simulate device performance in full human body models, to cleanroom nanofabrication, and in-vivo testing of device prototypes with a broad range of talented collaborators in engineering, neuroscience, and computing science. My latest research proposal involves designing the first optogenetic brain implant for chronic pain treatment.
