  (Privately Held; 501-1000 employees; Pharmaceuticals industry)

  July 2006 — May 2007 (11 months)

  Research and development related to drug discovery informatics. I was actively involved in development of different in house software tools. During this period, I developed strong expertise in Workflow technology and Visual Analytics .

• Intern

  University of Hyderabad

  (Research industry)

  May 2005 — July 2005 (3 months)

  Developed Software HBAT (Hydrogen Bond Analysis Tool) under guidance of Prof. Gautam R. Desiraju (School of Chemistry). HBAT supports post docking interaction analysis between PDB files for any target/receptor (in PDB files) and docked ligands/poses (in SDF). This tool can be implemented in active site interaction analysis, structure based drug design and molecular dynamics simulations.
