I am a doctoral student in Bioengineering at University of Utah. I obtained B. E. degree from Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda, India and M.S. in Biomedical Engineering from Louisiana Tech University, Ruston. Currently, I am working on development of miniature instrumentation systems for biochemical analysis in Microsystems for Biomedical Actuation, Sensing, and Separations (m-BASS) lab at University of Utah. Focus of my research effort is to develop a stand alone, continuous and portable 'signature identifying'  microsystem for medical diagnostic and biological defense purposes.
