I have an academic and professional background in urban planning and design in India and Italy. My research interests centre around cities with a focus on sustainable mobility, land use planning and neighbourhood liveability. At present, my goal is to study the intersection between urban and public health with the help of geospatial analysis and remote sensing.

The research aims to study the correlation between air pollution and respiratory and cardiovascular health in the region of Lombardia, Italy. This study will be conducted in collaboration with and using database from Agenzia Regionale Emergenza Urgenza Lombardia. I plan to assess this question through the lens of urban form and morphology and propose a decision support system to mitigate risk through short and long-term strategies.
