I am an enthusiastic graduate student in agriculture with avidity for not only crop improvement (genomics, plant-microbe interactions, quantitative genetics, applied aspects of plant breeding, modern plant breeding tools, product design and development), but also computational genetics programming and Biopython [including deep learning as well as machine learning]. Through field- and lab-based studies and computational tools, I have meticulously honed my skills through rigorous academic and informal coursework and immersive hands-on internships. My ardent ambition is to bridge the gap between farmers' fields and research stations through innovation exchange and capacity building. As a guiding principle, I am deeply committed to addressing the pressing food and nutrition insecurity issue in developing countries. Moreover, I am eager to collaborate on impactful projects that make a positive difference by bridging the gap between research stations and farmers' fields through capacity building as well as innovation exchange.
