B.E (Honors) in Electronics and Tele-Communication Engineering from Jawaharlal Darda Institute of Engineering and Technology, India 2010.
RESEARCH EXPERIENCE:
Graduate Research Assistant [ Jan 2012- current ]
Working of Micro-particle enhanced Mixing in microfluidic channels using Insulator based Dielectrophoresis.
Worked on generation of micro-droplets with encapsulated bubbles by drop-splitting in microfluidic channel. Aimed to design splitting channels, which includes research on splitting of droplets encapsulated gas bubbles, studying the effect of micelles on stabilities of bubbles during splitting process and polymerizing the droplet to obtain polymer covered micro bubbles.
Academic research Projects [Aug 2010 Current]
Designed and fabricated the Micro Viscosity Sensor based on natural frequency analysis of a micro-cantilever beam.
Prototyping an algorithm using MATLAB for Heart Defect Detection using Phonocardiogram.
Cultured Farming under controlled environment . Aimed to implement farming in absence of soil. It includes research on phosphorous and boron ionophores, designing and fabricating ion sensing FET s, building an AI based system.
