IMROZE (Principle Investigator)

Hi! I am Imroze, an evolutionary biologist, DBT/Wellcome Trust Intermediate Fellow and Assistant Professor of Biology at Ashoka University. My major academic interests reside in understanding how organisms adaptively evolve against/with infection and disease, using experimental evolution, genetics and genomics as primary tools. I am also interested in studying the parallelism between evolutionary concepts and the cultural history of the world and integrating the two within the framework of liberal education.

I did my doctoral studies in Evolutionary Biology at IISER Kolkata. Before joining Ashoka, I was a postdoctoral fellow at the National Centre for Biological Sciences (NCBS), Bengaluru and a visiting researcher at the Free University of Berlin.
