Achievement- Dissertation Report - "Phytochemical Analysis and Enzymatic Potential of Wheat (Triticum aestivum) and Rice (Oryza sativa)" I successfully conducted an extensive research project titled "Phytochemical Analysis and Enzymatic Potential of Wheat (Triticum aestivum) and Rice (Oryza sativa)" during my tenure at MITCON Biotechnology and Pharmaceutical Centre in Pune. This research delved into the intricate world of plant phytochemistry and enzymatic capabilities, contributing valuable insights to the field of agricultural science. 2. Short Term Training Program on Basic Bioinformatics: Tools and Databases I participated in a comprehensive short-term training program focused on "Basic Bioinformatics: Tools and Databases." This experience expanded my skills and knowledge in the realm of bioinformatics, equipping me with the necessary tools to analyze and interpret biological data effectively. 3. International Webinar on Sustainable Agriculture and Health in Challenging Environments I had the privilege of attending an international webinar titled "Sustainable Agriculture and Health in Challenging Environments." This insightful event provided a global perspective on addressing the complex issues surrounding agriculture and health in today's world, broadening my horizons and fostering a deeper understanding of these critical subjects. 4. Authorship of the Book "Virus: The Invisible Enemy" I proudly authored the book "Virus: The Invisible Enemy," which serves as an educational and informative resource shedding light on the intricacies of viruses. This publication aims to enhance public awareness and understanding of viruses, their impact on health, and the measures taken to combat them.

A dedicated scientist with a passion for exploring the mysteries of our universe. Currently serving as the Chief Scientist at ESRO Magica, I hold the esteemed position of heading the Biology Department within the organization. In addition to this role, I proudly serve as the Lead Space Tutor at ESRO Magica, where I impart invaluable knowledge and insights in the field of astrobiology to students ranging from the 5th grade to 12th grade, as well as BSc students. My journey into the realms of science and space education has been marked by several significant achievements. I have had the privilege of conducting groundbreaking research and offering hands-on guidance to aspiring young scientists in laboratory settings. One of my most exciting endeavors involves spearheading research at ESRO Magica focused on the "Planet Venus Farming Project." This pioneering project seeks to explore the possibilities of sustainable farming on the challenging terrain of Venus, pushing the boundaries of agricultural science and space exploration. My passion for science and education drives me to continue making valuable contributions to the fields of biology, astrobiology, and space exploration, as I strive to inspire and nurture the next generation of scientists and explorers.
