Experience
Doctoral Researcher
Jan 2020 — Present · Mumbai, IN
Quantified the time-dependent release of nanoplastics from disposable plastic cups and assessed human exposure risks using computational simulations- Investigated accelerated weathering effects on commercial HDPE and PBAT plastic bags, identifying significant changes in surface properties, including increased roughness and hydrophobicity, leading to accelerated weathering mechanisms- Examined initial bacterial colonization of Marinobacter adhaerens on weathered plastic films, assessing adhesion and gene expression related to microbial degradation- Analyzed the carbon catabolic potential of Marinobacter adhaerens on HDPE and PBAT films, evaluating microbial growth and plastic degradation pathways.
