Rama Krishnan

Rama Krishnan currently serves as a Doctoral Academy Student Trainer at Cardiff University, training postgraduate research students in bioinformatics, biological modeling, and programming languages such as R and Python. As a PhD researcher, Rama's project, funded by BBSRC Unilever, focuses on leveraging comparative genomics to develop digital twins for SMART ecotoxicological predictions, aiming to enhance the understanding of chemical effects on ecosystems. Previous experience includes a position as a parcel sorter at Evri and a postgraduate trainee at the University of Plymouth, where Rama completed a Master's in Applied Marine Science with a dissertation on in silico models for predicting chemical toxicity. Notably, a project at Amity University involved isolating the complete mitogenome of a freshwater turtle species, contributing significantly to the field of molecular ecology. Rama's educational background includes a Bachelor of Science in Marine Sciences from Amity University and ongoing PhD studies in Biomathematics, Bioinformatics, and Computational Biology at Cardiff University.
