His research is related to the feature extraction and network analysis to identify the nature and root cause of cancer (e.g. breast, prostate) using the micro-array data sets. Apart from studying, his research work is also focused on writing the code for various scenario related to life threatening diseases.

The research projects at the master level were aimed at determining the PPI based on benchmark data sets of five micro - organism and he written the code using Matlab programming to identify the pair of interacting and non-interacting protein using artificial neural network in background.

He is also serving as a technical editor and associate editor in the imminent journal - South Asian Journal of Experimental Biology and Journal of Experimental Biology and Agricultural Sciences respectively.
