About me
What are my accomplishments? (proven merit) My education includes graduate level degrees in chemistry, biochemistry and computation (health informatics). My research publications as first and/or corresponding author (2013-present) are in domains of neuroscience, neurological diseases, cancers, stem cells, neurotoxicity and heavy metal toxicity. These publications utilised techniques of molecular biology, biochemistry, bioinformatics, genomic/omics, statistics, machine learning, AI, natural language processing and network analysis. I have published papers (2013-present) in and reviewed papers (2020-present) for, @Nature https://www.nature.com/siteindex, @FrontiersIn https://www.frontiersin.org/journals and @ElsevierConnect https://www.elsevier.com/products/journals (Cell Press) tier 1 highly cited high impact family of journals in addition to others.
What are my soft skills? (work ethics) To put it simply, my soft skills are rooted in my passion for knowledge work. 'Give me problems, give me work, give me the most abstruse cryptogram or the most intricate analysis, and I am in my own proper atmosphere' quote from Sherlock Holmes, The Sign of Four by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. My research experience has potentiated my ability to plan, problem-solve and perform intricate scientific experiments to unravel novel discoveries. My experience in scientific communication through presentations and publications, has honed my ability to convey complex ideas and technical information in a concise and accessible manner. Taken together, I am confident my proven merit and work ethics, make me an ideal candidate to contribute to your organization's success and create tangible value.
What is my profession? (who am I professionally?) At the microscopic level, 'I am an atom in the universe and an universe of atoms' to quote from Richard Feynman's poem. At the macroscopic level, I am a knowledge worker, that is a scientist and educator. The fair (giving credit where its due, not engage in plagiarism) and FAIR (findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reusability https://www.nature.com/articles/sdata201618 and https://www.ebi.ac.uk/about/news/perspectives/fairification-framework-making-your-data-findable-accessible-interoperable-and-reusable/) science I practice, can be described by the line "whose armour is his honest thought, and simple truth his utmost skill" from poem 'The Character of a Happy Life' by Sir Henry Wotton. Its another way of saying, that in Science data driven truths have to be stated honestly, and cannot be diluted for sake of consensus, empathy or humility, science is not a majority vote. Sherlock Holmes sums this up nicely, in The Adventure of the Greek Interpreter by Arthur Conan Doyle "I cannot agree with those who rank modesty among the virtues. To the logician all things should be seen exactly as they are, and to underestimate one's self is as much a departure from truth as to exaggerate one's own powers." Example(s): When Wright brothers flew the plane, and Galileo showed sun was center of the solar system, they defied majority consensus. Sure the majority can decide to stay ignorant, its their choice, but science cannot be changed for majority. Indeed, as history has shown Truth is more sustainable, so the Wright brothers' plane and Galilio's solar system model outlived their contemporary ignorant majority, and are accepted now by majority. Presently, majority of DEI quota advocates promote the notion that 'race is a social contruct', while science clearly shows that genetic variation among races like whites are very distant genetically from blacks, is a scientific fact https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-06957-x/figures/2 and majority of DEI quota advocates promote human male and human female sexes are interchangeable, while science clearly shows that evey cell of human body is human male XY or human female XX as determined by sex chromosomes X and Y, when there is sex chromosomal defecit or excess you have disorders like Turner syndromes which can be detected by genetic screening, however science with even its cutting edge gene-editing cannot correct every chromosome every cell every gene in the body --- this difference of races and sexes at cause or genotype level leads to effects phenotype physiology, so needs to be taken into account for healthcare in charting treatment pathway for patients, clinicl trials at population level and personalized level like in precision medicine, and it will be futile to change this science for some DEI agenda. So any human, male or female, of any race, that ignores this science, does so at their own peril, especially when honest truthful scientists have clearly presented the data/science without distortion.
What is my philosophy? (who am I personally?) I am a minimalist, that is my philosophy is 'simple living high thinking' as described in poem 'The Character of a Happy Life' by Sir Henry Wotton and famous quote by Lao Tzu 'who knows that enough is enough, will always have enough'. For me enough is to get to my preferred location and lead a preferred life and have a preferred death, as described under 'Where do I want the position?'. I should clarify though, that what I prefer for getting to my preferred location preferred life and preferred death, is just simply merit category visa or like term-limited permanent residency. I think all other visa or non-term-limited permanent residency are just DEI or non merit based quota based or just too much, so should be annulled as these don't add to the host country but deduct resources that could otherwise be used by the locals. Ergo,even if offered I will not take up citizenship because I don't think its fair to the people of those countries, for someone like me though in merit category and though I love their culture, but am not raised in their culture not assimilated in their culture, to be citizen --- infact, this is true not just for 1st generation but also for 2nd generation, then maybe after 3rd generation if they interact with the host population enough there is assimilation into the host country's culture. If we reason this further we see that indeed the underdeveloped countries do this same thing to developed counties i.e. when its the other way round like say some developed country person wants citizenship in underdeveloped country its not allowed. This shows that the uncivilized people of underdeveloped countries are just ripping off the civilized people of developed countries, abusing latter's empathy, or rather 'suicidal empathy' (https://www.harpercollins.com/products/the-war-on-the-west-douglas-murray?variant=39664581705762 and https://rumble.com/v6s2hp5-the-gloves-come-off-a-new-strategy-for-fighting-death-cults-douglas-murray.html).Only China has prevented itself from being thus ripped off by using term-limited merit based visas and term-limited permanent residency without any pathway to citizenship, while also ensuring they have no other non-merit quotas like DEI, refugee, dual hire, barbarian natives etc, thus maintaining their culture and security, even gene pool so host population does not get infected by immigrant population gene pool disease propensities or infections they bring example HIV/AIDS was brought to the developed world from underdeveloped world. Another, biological phenomenon parasite-host interaction is seen here basically, whereby non-merit quotas like DEI, illegals, refugee, dual hire, barbarian natives and their anti-civilization brainwashed progeny etc (predator parasites) use all the civilized world knowledge and gifts, yet attack and abuse the civilized world (empathic host, rather 'suicidal empath' hosts). In summary, merit based visa and/or term-limited permanent residency like China's 10 year highly skilled (merit) residency, is all that is fair for any immigrant including merit category immigrant like myself for protecting host gene pool from diseases disease propensities, for protecting culture and for sustainable use of resources. Indeed, when seen through prism of philosophy of logic reason and science, no matter how big a problem be it immigration or climate change, its solvable Example: Just like how in Isaac Asimov's 'The Last Question' Multivac solves how to reverse entropy but only after humans destroyed planet with overpopulation and unsustainable use of resources (https://archive.org/details/isaac-asimov-the-last-question).
What position and salary do I want? (job, consultancy, onsite, remote, temporary, full-time) I am eager to pursue either Traditional Work and Stationary Work or working as Digital Nomad and Working Traveler. I am unemployed and seeking consultancy or regular employment, either onsite or remote. I am interested in and a good fit for biology, chemistry and computational research or in other words research spanning multiple scientific disciplines. I am eager to pursue either conventional scientific research or AI/computation driven scientific research (https://news.cgtn.com/news/2025-03-10/Expert-China-s-AI-initiative-to-revolutionize-scientific-research-1BDn9n5xVSw/p.html), scientific writing assignments or teaching assignments. For payment, I only request financial coverage for food (to cover self-cooked food cost, not for restaurant food coverage) and lodging (to covert rent of apartment or cover rent of camper vans and designated camping site rent). My preferred currency is GBP as a small token of thanks to their mercy that made my life and work possible. Its becuase of UK that I had access to education and independent life in India and US, due to their grace thanks to the civilized culture and knowledge British Raj/British Empire spread across the world in the Golden Age, and having worked in the Great Britain I also understand and prefer GBP. This is not to minimize the rest of the civilized world, its just giving credit where its due, so I should mention, that I am grateful to Germany that funded summer school scholarship resulting in my first corresponding author paper in Frontiers 2019, I am grateful to France that funded pre-print publication of my most recent work in HAL and UK's academia.edu for the same, not to mention I am grateful for the daily knowledge adn technology from the civilized world that together have made and continue to make all my work possible. Nevertheless, the British hold a special place for me as explained above, indeed as we say in UK and as I believe to be true for me to the letter, "I have the honor [King Queen of UK and Commonwealth, Prince and Princess of Wales, currently serving UK Royals, real UK people (not the UK haters) and UK at large] to be your most(?) humble and most(?) obedient servant of her generation", it will be a dream come true if I have the honor to have that stated on my epitaph. One that serves is a servant so I am a servant of UK, I never understand why some people find that demeanining, its just the truth, maybe its their ego or something; I put (?) after 'most' because its not quantifiable and a matter of opinion of those I serve [King Queen of UK and Commonwealth, Prince and Princess of Wales, currently serving UK Royals, real UK people (not the UK haters) and UK at large], and only at end of my life can those I serve decide if among my contemporaries i.e. my generation I was the most humble and most obedient servant of [King Queen of UK and Commonwealth, Prince and Princess of Wales, currently serving UK Royals, real UK people (not the UK haters) and UK at large].Ofcourse I don't just have curiosity, I also have ambition, so indeed I would love to be regarded as the 'most humble and most obedient servant of [King Queen of UK and Commonwealth, Prince and Princess of Wales, currently serving UK Royals, real UK people (not the UK haters) and UK at large]', but its not for me to decide as I cannot scientifically quantiy my service, ergo it will be the opinion of those I serve. Personally to me Great Britain is the greatest country in the world and the universe, so I regularly enter my British 'mind palace' (like BBC TV series Sherlock series, Sherlock Holmes | Mind Palace Scence, in Hound of Baskervilles https://youtu.be/OWbSvmIKsSA) by watching UK live webcam and travel videos, set all my clocks to UK, set my AC temperature to UK, drink British tea/coffee, eat their favorite fish and chips, listen to their radio and watch their TV especially classic British TV, read their works in science, literature and philosophy, and more.
Where do I want the position? (preferred locations) Anyplace where assisted suicide or atleast assisted dying is legal country wide at government and court level i.e. there is no confusion or conflict about allowing it. So not US, because in US some states allow it and some don't. On the other hand, Switzerland, some EU countries, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada are some countries where there is assisted suicide or assisted dying country wide, court-wide and government wide consensus. Though, UK and most of EU does not allow assisted suicide or assisted dying, they are stone’s throw away from Switzerland and some EU countries that allow it. Ergo, UK and EU is also a preferred location for me. These places (UK, EU, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada), also meet my preference for places that sincerely attempt to control climate change and its root cause (human overpopulation), ergo allowing for more harmony with nature and miminizing discomfort from human overcrowding and extreme climate events. Having said that, as I distinctly prefer cool climate over warm climate, I especially would prefer Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Germanic Europe i.e. Northern Europe and UK -- also excluding seasides as they are hot and humid most of the time. I also prefer a place where if not marriage or civil unions, atleast practicing homosexuality privately even if not in public places, has legal consensus countrywide, at court and government level. Sure, Japan, China, Singapore and South Korea are taking measures to manage overpopulation and climate change, but like US they don't meet one or more of my other criteria. In summary, I need a place where I can exercise my free will to take up assisted dying or assisted sucide and die in peace, and while alive I can live in harmony with nature without facing climate extremes and shoving and pushing that results from overcrowding --- these consitions are satisfied by UK, EU, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada.(ref1 to ref16)
