👨‍🔬 About Me

I’m a Bioinformatics postgraduate from Alagappa University, deeply passionate about the computational exploration of life sciences. My academic and research journey has led me to work on a wide array of projects, including:

  • 🧬 Reverse Vaccinology against Hepatitis B Virus
  • 🦠 Bacterial Gene Prediction & Functional Annotation
  • 🧪 Proteomic Analysis & Immunoinformatics Pipeline Building
  • 💻 Molecular Modelling, Docking, and Immune Simulation
  • 🧠 Interested in AI/ML applications in Structural Bioinformatics

My ultimate goal is to bridge the gap between data and discovery, especially in the context of infectious diseases and host-pathogen interactions.
