Psychiatry Post Doctoral Fellowship-
Psychosexual Medicine
PROFILE :
I am currently working as Consultant Neuropsychiatrist at RXMEN Solutions, Delhi and Dr. B. R. Ambedkar University of Delhi (AUD). I have pursued Post-Doctoral Fellowship at JSS Academy of Higher Education and Research, Mysuru, India, under the guidance of current IPS President, Dr. TS. Sathyanarayana Rao. I have served as a Senior Resident in Psychiatry at the Institute of Human Behaviour and Allied Sciences (IHBAS), New Delhi, India, for the past three years till August 2025, demonstrating a strong commitment to clinical excellence, academic growth, and research. Over this period, I have developed focused interests in gender- based differences in mental health, caregiver burden, and the ethical implications of emerging technologies in psychiatry.
My academic contributions include the development of study material for postgraduate psychiatry training, active involvement in research protocol design, and participation in institutional ethics committee processes. I have also delivered presentations at national-level academic forums, particularly on contemporary themes such as AI-driven mental health care. With an expanding portfolio of publications, research presentations, and interdisciplinary collaborations, I bring a balanced engagement with clinical practice, teaching, and research. I aspire to contribute meaningfully to academic psychiatry through evidence-based education, ethical clinical leadership, and advocacy for underrepresented issues in mental health.
