Hi, I'm Aeshna.
A Pharma Engineer.
I'm passionate about pharmaceutical engineering, computational drug discovery, and research-driven healthcare innovation.
Introduction
Overview.
๐งช I'm a B.Tech Pharmaceutical Engineering student at IIT (BHU) Varanasi with a strong interest in drug discovery and formulation science.
๐ My current CGPA is 8.44/10, with coursework spanning organic chemistry, biochemistry, pharmaceutical analysis, pharmacology, heat and mass transfer, statistics, and medicinal chemistry.
๐ฌ I have worked on AI-assisted computational drug discovery targeting tau protein using REINVENT4, DockStream, QSAR modeling, and ADMET evaluation.
๐ค I have contributed to SPIRIT, E-Cell, and Techfest at IIT BHU through outreach, marketing, sponsorship, guest relations, and event operations.
๐ก I'm especially curious about drug delivery systems, pharmaceutical technology, computational drug discovery, pharmacology, and toxicology.
