Brief Description of Research Interest :

Rajesh obtained his PhD from University of Lausanne, Switzerland in Molecular Biology and Immunology. His thesis project was to understand the mechanism of pathogenesis in endometriosis, a benign gynecological disorder which primarily causing infertility in women and to find a novel therapy for Endometriosis. Rajesh is also a recipient of Swiss National Science Foundation(SNSF) fellowship, a highly competitive fellowship awarded to the most promising candidate from Switzerland to go abroad. His postdoctoral research includes understanding the mechanisms involved in chemoresistance in ovarian cancer and exploring the possibility to overcome the resistance.
