Dr. Joshi’s research focuses on the interdisciplinary field, integrating principles from the physical, chemical, and biological sciences to address fundamental questions in protein science. Her doctoral work was centered on single-molecule biophysics and mechanobiology, with a particular focus on elucidating the role of interdomain linkers in multidomain proteins. She has extensive expertise in single-molecule manipulation techniques, including atomic force microscopy (AFM) and magnetic tweezers (MT), complemented by a strong foundation in biochemical and biophysical methods such as recombinant protein expression, purification, and characterization. As a teaching assistant at IISER Mohali, she supported undergraduate laboratory courses focused on spectroscopy techniques. Her work has been published in peer-reviewed journals and presented at national and international conferences.
