  •  Neurophysiology of Language
  • Motor Imagery
  • Observation & Execution, Neurodegenerative Diseases
  • Synaptic Plasticity
  • Research Areas: Besides neurophysiology of language
  •  I am also interested in exploring the role mirror neurons in motor imagery
  • observation and execution using EEG and ERPs in humans. Further
  • , I would like to focus on integrating learning and memory along with specific motor (both perceptual and executive) functions of the brain in normal and disease models such as neurodegenerative diseases using stereotaxy
  • optogenetics
  • and synaptic plasticity (LTP & LTD). Using zebrafish as a model organism
  • , we would also like to understand the neurophysiology of   LRRK2 gene mutated Parkinson’s disease and other motoneuron diseases and also for learning and memory using universal maze with video tracking system

  • Life Member of Association of Physiologists & Pharmacologists of India (APPI)-2696
