Welcome to our research group at IIT Indore! We use computational and theoretical tools to uncover the role of phase separation of proteins/RNA/DNA on biochemical reactions. We use computer simulations to uncover rich polymer physics associated with biomolecular condensates, under both equilibrium and non-equilibrium conditions. We also engineer better enzymes for efficient biofuel production using computational tools.

Research directions pursued in our group.

JRF position: We are actively recruiting for a JRF to work on ANRF funded research project to study how phase separation can be used to engineer functional synthetic pyrenoids capable of carbon fixation. Please apply formally via IIT Indore’s website. The google form for application is: google form

For PhD and project positions, send an email to gaurav@iiti.ac.in expressing your interest. Some of the projects would include studying the role of phase separation of proteins on reaction kinetics in biological systems, and understanding how non-equilibrium activity could affect the phase diagram.
