General Information

Dr. Trivima Sharma is an Assistant Professor at Ganpat University with a Ph.D. in Molecular Biology from Ehime University, Japan. Her research during doctorate focused on understanding the role of an enzyme in embryo and apical hook development in pea (Pisum sativum). She has held various research and teaching positions, including roles at Purdue University, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, and the University of Calgary. At Purdue, she worked on wheat transformation for a USDA-funded project and improved regeneration protocols from wheat callus. At Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, she contributed to duckweed transformation research for biofuel production and helped generate RNA libraries for next-generation sequencing. At the University of Calgary, she worked on improving Brassica napus transformation and screened mutant wheat seeds for drought tolerance. She has taught Plant Tissue Culture and has published two first-author research papers in international plant journals. She has also presented her research at conferences in Japan and the USA. With her strong academic background and research experience in top laboratories, she brings valuable expertise to KKIASR at Ganpat University.
