I am currently focusing on the production of biogenic nanoparticles from Steno. M and exploiting their applications based on photocatylitic properties of metal nanoparticles.

• In this study, I focoused on identification of Cranberry derived phytochemicals as inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro protease.
• Several ligant molecules were analysed in Autodock 4.2.6 were docked against 6lu7 structure the best 10 with the lowest RMSD values were selected to be analyzed
  further and out of those the best 3 were visualized using discovery studios.

• Worked under Dr Henda Mahamoudi on Experiment which focused on understanding the Biological implications of Salicornia Plants grown in hydroponics with increased salinities.
• Focused on Quantifying the chlorophyll content as well as cell sap analysis, thus gaining hands on experience with hydroponic systems and instruments like UV visible Spec and Flame Photometer.

• To study different annotations of traits inherited by maternal inheritance and categorize them based on phenotypic characteristics.

• Using standardized protocols to manufacture leather like material from fungal mycelium of aspergillus niger and Pleurotus ostreatus.

• Research on recent biotech advancements used in insurance; Dubai market research and contrast with western countries, in aspects of Bio-Reinsurance 2008 and Pet Insurance.
