Hi, I’m Abhisek — a Senior Research Fellow from Bhubaneswar, India, with a background in biotechnology, bioinformatics, and microscopy. I am currently working at BRIC-ILS where I investigate host-virus interactions, focusing on arboviruses and their mechanisms of replication and spread. I am interested in viral evolution, pathogenesis, and the development of antiviral strategies. Outside the lab, I enjoy reading, photography, hiking, and who doesn't love video games?
