Professor (Scientist G) 
Here is the SAO/NASA ADS link to my publications.  The details of MALS and ARTIP are available here.
I was born in Delhi. I did B.Sc.(H) from Hindu College, Delhi University in 1999, and M.Sc. from the Department of Physics & Astrophysics, Delhi University in 2001. After this I joined the National Centre for Radio Astrophysics and obtained Ph.D. from the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research in 2007. Before joining IUCAA in 2013, I worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the Australia Telescope National Facility in Sydney, Australia (2007-2010) and the Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy in Dwingeloo, the Netherlands (2010-2013).  At ATNF, I designed the antenna configuration for the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP).
Welcome. I work at the Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA). My research focuses on interstellar medium of galaxies. I am involved in various observational projects with current and upcoming radio telescopes to trace the evolution of cold atomic and molecular gas content of galaxies using absorption lines. I am Principal Investigator of the MeerKAT Absorption Line Survey (MALS), a large survey of HI 21-cm and OH 18-cm lines at the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) precursor MeerKAT radio telescope in South Africa.  I am interested in observational techniques relevant to large blind searches of absorption lines at radio wavelengths.  I lead the design and development of the Automated Radio Telescope Imaging Pipeline (ARTIP) responsible for processing vast amounts of MALS data (~1.7 PB raw) at IUCAA.
