Current work
Research Experience
I am currently working as a Clinical Research Fellow in the Department of Interventional Radiology at Brigham and Women's Hospital / Harvard Medical School, where I am actively involved in clinical trials and translational research focused on embolization therapies.
My work includes serving as a co-investigator and research coordinator for ongoing trials. I am involved in patient screening, eligibility assessment, procedural planning, and angiographic interpretation, with a focus on evaluating embolization endpoints and treatment response.
I also perform quantitative imaging analysis using digital subtraction angiography, angiographic blush assessment, and time-density curve analysis. I use ImageJ/FIJI and 3D Slicer for image processing, segmentation, and perfusion analysis to better understand treatment efficacy and optimize patient selection.
My prior research experience includes work as a research assistant at LUMS, where I investigated immune dysfunction in type 2 diabetes and its role in increased susceptibility to infectious diseases. I also have laboratory experience in histopathology, tissue engineering, genetics, and molecular biology techniques including PCR, ELISA, and flow cytometry.
