About Anamika Avni
I am a PhD student (a chemist turned biophysicist) working with Samrat Mukhopadhyay at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) Mohali. My research interest encompasses various intriguing aspects of intrinsically disordered proteins that undergo amyloid aggregation and liquid-liquid phase separation. I utilize a wide range of tools, including vibrational Raman spectroscopy, to study protein aggregation and phase separation.

We introduce a highly sensitive methodology that captures key vibrational signatures using surface-engineered, plasmonic, metal nanoparticles spontaneously encapsulated into protein liquid droplets allowing us to unveil the inner workings of biomolecular condensates in a droplet-by-droplet manner.
