I come from the vibrant and culturally rich country of Nepal, celebrated as the land of Mount Everest, the birthplace of Buddha, and a place adorned with countless temples.
From a young age, I have been captivated by the wonders of chemistry, particularly the intricacies of chemical transformations, reaction mechanisms, and the study of complex reactions. This passion has driven me to pursue a long-term goal of becoming a drug designer, where I can contribute to the development of life-saving medicines. In pursuit of this dream, I joined Dr. Sharma’s Lab Group in 2023 as a Ph.D. student, where I am currently engaged in cutting-edge research in carbohydrate chemistry. This experience is honing my skills and deepening my understanding of the field, bringing me closer to achieving my aspirations.
