She holds a B. Tech in Genetic Engineering from SRM University in India and moved to Germany to pursue a master’s degree in Regenerative Biology and Medicine at the Center for Regenerative Therapies, Technische Universität Dresden. She subsequently did her doctoral training in Translational Cardiology and Functional Genomics at the Max Delbrück Center in the Helmholtz Association and Charité Universitätsmedizin Berlin.

During her doctoral training, she worked at the intersection of stem cell biology and cardiovascular research, focusing on the differentiation and maturation of iPSCs into functional cardiomyocytes. Using Engineered Heart Tissue (EHT) models, she studied sarcomere biology and cardiac splicing and applied mechanical and pharmacological interventions to assess tissue responses. She also used multi-omics approaches for molecular characterization and comparison of invitro cardiac models.

She joined MERLN in April 2026 as a postdoctoral researcher on an Advanced ERC grant with Lorenzo Moroni. Her research focuses on guiding pluripotent stem cell fate using complex 3D scaffold architecture. She studies the mechanobiology of cell fate by integrating biological and biophysical cues to direct differentiation and ultimately bioengineer mature, functional cardiac tissue, with the goal of advancing regenerative medicine and cardiac tissue engineering.
