Cell Biology of Cornea
We are trying to look at cellular factors that enhance transparency in the cornea. If we can identify novel factors that help in maintaining transparency in cornea, they can be targeted for therapeutic use to treat corneal diseases.

Translation Readthrough
We are working on novel genes which undergo programmed translation readthrough in mammals and trying to understand their biological significance of the readthrough protein using cell culture and mouse models
​
Translation Readthrough as A Therapeutic
We are developing methodologies to induce translation readthrough across disease-causing premature stop codons in a number of diseases in-vivo.
