Research Interests:
My interest is in understanding how brain gets affected on different perturbations such as chronic stress, depression etc., and possible restoration/prevention using different interventions.
Currently I am working on how amygdala modulates the hippocampal and frontal cortical functions in chronic immobilisation stress using electrophysiological, morphological and behavioural evaluation.
Thesis Title:
Modulatory role of amygdala on hippocampal and frontal cortical functions in stress
Guide: Dr. B.S. Shankaranarayana Rao
Co-Guide: Dr. T.R. Raju
Education:
2008-2013: PhD (Neurophysiology) - NIMHANS, Bengaluru
2004-2007: MSc (Medical Physiology) - Kasturba Medical College, Manipal
