​Subhash Rajpurohit, PI
​

I am a broadly trained ecological and evolutionary physiologist who studies spatiotemporal variations, metabolic ecology, and rapid adaptation.  My approach is 'macrophysiology to molecules' level. I also use experimental evolution to study how physiological systems function and evolve under defined conditions. I have been involved in using Indian drosophilids as a natural laboratory of evolutionary biology. At the moment EEE Lab is focusing on 'Organismal responses to climate change' by integrating our understandings in spatiotemporal variations, metabolic rates, and rapid adaptations.

I believe in big picture and engage myself in various collaborations.

Prospective undergraduate students, graduate students, and postdocs interested in working with me please visit my lab 'Research' page and 'Opportunities' section.​

Divita Garg
PhD Candidate
​Start Date: Jul 2020

​M.Sc. in Life Sciences from Mount Carmel College, Bengaluru, India

Divita is interested in evolution of thermal preference in natural populations of Drosophila species. Ecology could drive organism's physiology and thereby fitness. One of her approach is to study this using populations made of different genetic backgrounds. To understand the underlying molecular wiring she uses metabolomics, transcriptomics and whole genome sequencing platforms.

Harshita Bhati
PhD Candidate
​Start Date: Jul 2019
​M.Sc. in Life Sciences from Ahmedabad University-Ahmedabad, India

Harshita is broadly interested in evolution of pigmentation variations in natural populations of Drosophila species. With the use of integrative approaches she is trying to make connections across morphology, physiology and underlying molecular wirings. To address the questions of interests she uses artificial selection, candidate gene approach, and whole genome sequencing platforms.
