Monmita B.

I am a Senior Research Fellow currently pursuing my PhD in Neuroscience from the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore. I have completed my Bachelors in Science from St. Xavier's College in Microbiology Hons. from 2014-2017. I joined IISc as an Integrated PhD student in 2017 and finished my Masters in the Department of Biochemistry.

Along with my passion for science, I am a humble learner of Hindustani Classical music, trained by the late Vidushi Girija Devi. I have also learnt Bharatnatyam from a young age along with other contemporary dance forms. Multitasking has taught me time management and the fact that it is possible to pursue multiple dreams.

I have studied in the ICSE board in Class X and CBSE for Class XI and XII. All my experience in school, college and pursuing a PhD in such an eminent institute has contributed to my love for science and learning.
