Since May 2024, I am an assistant professor at the University of Twente in the Department of Applied Mathematics. 

Previously, I was a postdoc at TU Darmstadt in the group of Pascal Schweitzer and a DFG Eigene Stelle researcher at RWTH Aachen in the group of Martin Grohe. Earlier, I did my PhD at IMSc Chennai and my B. Tech. at IIT Bombay

My current research is centered on the mathematical foundations of machine learning on graphs and discrete structures, with the goal of facilitating a theory-driven approach to the design of graph learning systems. Please check out my Google Scholar profile for more. 

My primary research is centered on graphs and networks, in particular, the study of classic computational problems on graphs using mathematical techniques such as logic and algebra.  Please check out my DBLP profile for more.

Along the way, I also explore the practical applications of graph learning tools such as graph neural networks (GNNs) to real-world applications such as optimization, bioinformatics and databases.
