Bachelor of Technology - Biomedical Engineering May 2013

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:

INTERNSHIP:

The University of Texas at Arlington research institute: Research assistant Start month: September 2015

●Designed plastic molds using solidworks for improving fabrication process of silicon structures. These structures were used for different applications on a prosthetic leg device.

●Verified functionality of the prosthetic leg apparatus by comparative analysis of the previous results and constructing suitable product testing protocols.

●Designed plastic molds for injection molding process using solidworks for a smart seat cushion.

●Detailed documentation of research progress.

ACADEMIC PROJECTS:

The University of Texas at Arlington:

Biosensors study:

Pregnancy test device: Studied the lateral flow immunoassay principle in a pregnancy device and designed an apparatus to control the lateral flow rate of sample for a pregnancy test device by changing the dimension and type of materials in absorbent pad, sample pad, conjugate pad.

Glucose test device: Calibration of an in-home glucose testing device for its accuracy, sensitivity and its range.

Image segmentation in MATLAB:

●Collaborated with a team in developing a MATLAB application for displaying montage view of the brain images.

●Implemented Image Segmentation techniques to enhance cancer affected region in a brain scan.

2D back projection image reconstruction algorithm:

●Coordinated a team for developing 2D back projection image reconstruction algorithm in MATLAB.

●The algorithm is used after an initial CT/PET scan, where reconstruction techniques are applied to get the final images.

Tissue attenuation coefficient:

●Collaborated with a team in designing a circuit which is used to calculate tissue attenuation coefficients'.

●Optical fibers were used to transmit the light source from LED to the tissue substitute and from tissue substitute to photo detectors.

Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University:

Blood infusion warmer:

●Designed a PIC16F73 microcontroller based circuit that increases the temperature of the blood to match the subject’s body temperature before performing blood transfusion.

●Used keil MDK for microcontroller code and NI Multisim for designing the circuit.

ECG abnormality identifier:

●Developed a MATLAB application consisting of GUI to identify ECG waveform and its abnormalities.

●ECG are converted into wavelets and these wavelets are stored as databases. Input ECG waves are compared to the existing data bases to check abnormalities.

Signal processing of EEG & ECG:

●Collaborated with a team in developing MATLAB applications to perform noise cancellations and amplifications of EEG and ECG raw data.

●Butterworth filter was used implemented for Noise cancellations.

Academic activities:

●Paper presentation on "Brain Morphometry Analysis using functional MRI".

●Attended the national conference for biomedical signal processing and image processing.
