Your profile ??the WHO, the WHAT and the WHY

I

"I am a Post-doctoral fellow working for Dr.Thundat. I have an expertise in advanced microscopy tools like Atomic Force Microscope (AFM), Electric (EFM), Magnetic (MFM), Kelvin probe (KPFM) and other specialized modes for material characterization. My primary research is in Biophysics and Material Science targeted towards Cancer research. My goal is to study the mechanisms involved with cancer progression through force microscopy coupled with specialized spectroscopy tools through creative ideas and innovation. In my opinion, Physical sciences have a great potential to unravel the mysteries involved in complex biological systems."
