Obesity, Type 2 Diabetes and metabolic disorders have reached epidemic proportions. The molecular mechanisms underlying the pathology of obesity and insulin resistance leading to atherosclerosis and heart failure are still not well understood. My research revolves around understanding the complex signals in the cells that lead to progress of obesity and atherosclerosis. I am thankful to Gates Cambridge Trust for providing me with an opportunity to work towards this goal.
