Research Experiences

1. Hypoxia as a regulator for tissue metabolism and disease progression. - MRes Cancer Biology thesis submitted to Nottingham Trent University, 2022.

 I analysed histological changes of myofiber, blood vessels, and cells in Type 2 diabetic rodent tibial muscles by immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, and cell culture. Images has been analysed and processed by confocal microscopy and software Image J Fiji and Leica Application Suite X (LAS X) respectively.  

2. Comparison of the quality of the microwave cell-block method with the conventional cell-block method in processing body fluid samples. - MSc Medical Laboratory Technology(Pathology) thesis submitted to JIPMER, India, 2018.

I compared the quality of morphological changes of malignant and benign samples by normal tissue process and a rapid microwave tissue processing, immunocytochemistry, and other special stains. I practiced to standardise the antibodies and antigen retrieval method according to cell type. 

3. Importance of conventional PAP smear for the diagnosis of premalignant and malignant lesions in cervical cancer. - BSc Medical Laboratory Technology thesis submitted to Mahatma Gandhi University, Kerala, India, 2015. 

I analysed the cervical lesions by papanicolaou stain to diagnose premalignancy in women.
