Undergraduate Researcher

I am Arumugam, a final-year undergraduate in Biotechnology with a strong foundation in molecular biology and hands-on research experience across diverse fields of immunology, virology, oncology, and ecology. My academic and research interest has consistently centered on immunobiology, with a particular focus on T cell biology and the molecular mechanisms that regulate immune responses.
 

I have gained exposure to both basic and advanced laboratory techniques, enabling me to approach research questions with clarity. My recent work involves studying immune regulation in metabolic disease models, and exploring strategies to enhance T cell function in immunotherapy space.
 

Looking ahead, I aim to pursue doctoral research in the domain of immunobiology, where I can contribute to advancing our understanding of immune cell dynamics and their translational potential in human health and disease.
