Saswat Kumar Mohanty

Ph.D. student

Interests

  • Primate genomics and bioinformatics

Education

  • M.S. in Biological Sciences,

    IISER Kolkata, India

Biography

Saswat is interested in understanding the evolution of non-B-DNA structures in primates. Currently, he is working mainly on a specific type of non-B-DNA structure called the G-quadruplex or G4, for example, developing bioinformatic tools to analyze genome-wide distribution of these structures.
