My Research Interests

My Research Interests
----------------------------------
1) Analysis of the Human Body at the Cell / Molecular Level
The human body is a wonderful system and the way it functions is simply amazing.
Links-. Prof. Todors Lab ( MIT)
2) Drug Delivery and Medicine
I am a BIG FAN of Prof. Robert Langer(MIT/Harvard). I love working on impossible things and he is the Professor of The Impossible, just the way I like it.
3) Bioengineering & Biomedical Systems
Biology and Medicine is filled with complex problems and that needs the support of technology and mathematics to find answers to them. I just love it. Cool!
5) Disease Pathology ( special focus on cancer and AIDS )
I love working on impossible things, and those that are yet unsolved. Cancer and AIDS are of high interests to me as they are the problems that need to solved at the earliest.
Links-> just google people! Still if you want Journals at Nature / Cell /Science should help.
----------------------------------------------
Books/Journals I Read
1) Disease Pathology - Robbins
2) Gray's Anatomy
3) TbioMed ( http://www.tbiomed.com/ )
4) Bioinformation Journal
5) Use google scholar a lot .
6) Journals on Nature, BMC and Science, Oxford Journals
-----------------------------------------------
MY FAVORITE QUOTES(For All Those researchers like me)
1) Never Stop Dreaming, Never Stop trying
2) No Idea is Stupid, Either it is to good to be true or it is way ahead of its future
3) Hard work conquers all ( But you need to be smart too! )
4) IMPOSSIBLE -> I + M + POSSIBLE (NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE)

"STAY HUNGRY, STAY FOOLISH"

Hi All,

I am preparing for my Admissions now( GRE ), and you know that cracking it is not a cakewalk.
Well, I have started doing what I have always wanted to do in my life.
I see myself as a researcher and someday a scientist.
I have started contributing to the open project, again something I enjoy so much.

I have shifted to Mumbai( Thane District in Maharashtra) , about 200 kms away from old home in Vapi.

I have dreams of getting into the best doctoral program in the world and I know it needs a lot of hard-work, patience and confidence.
I left my last job as a software engineer in Pune to persue a research career, and I am very happy I did that. It was getting very stressful and affecting my health, not to forget my loss of interest in the job.
I am looking for interesting and complex scientifc work, cutting-edge research work with the chance to think new and try out new things. Thus, I had to look elsewhere.
I am working on the following projects too. Please go through them and see if it interests you too.
1) The BEOWULF Project -> www.beowulf.org
2) The EMBOSS Project at OPen Bio Foundation.

I am trying to publish my second paper which is still under progress.
Finally for all you dreamers and believers like me, who wish to be larger than life, keep saying:-
SOMEDAY I WILL FULFILL MY DREAM! I BELIEVE IN IT.

And for you people out there, I repeat the words of Steve Jobs in his speech at Stanford that is inspiring many like me,
"STAY HUNGRY, STAY FOOLISH"
Thank you Mr Jobs ( we have learnt a lot from you)

Regards,
Jitesh Dundas
