WORK EXPERIENCE:

I have worked as an assistant professor in the Dept. of Neurology at Ramaiah Medical

College and hospitals, Bangalore, India after completing DM in Neurology from September

2012 till June 2016 and as an Associate Professor in Neurology at the same Institute from

July 2016 to December 2018. Ramaiah Medical College was started in the year 1979 and has

since grown into an institute of recognition and repute in India and abroad.

BASIC NEUROLOGICAL TRAINING:

I have secured DM in neurology in July 2012 from NIMHANS. The National Institute of

Mental Health and Neuro Sciences (NIMHANS) is a multidisciplinary institute for patient

care and academic pursuit in the field of mental health and neurosciences. In 2012,

NIMHANS was conferred the status of an „Institute of National Importance‟. The institute is

a tertiary referral centre from all over India for all types of neurological disorders that include

stroke, epilepsy, movement disorders, demyelinating diseases, neuromuscular diseases and

pediatric neurology. I have been trained in the evaluation of Parkinson's disease, Essential

tremor, Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, Corticobasal Degeneration, Multiple System

Atrophy, Parkinson plus syndromes, Diffuse Lewy body disorders, Spinocerebellar Ataxias,

Friedreich's Ataxia, Huntington's disease, NBIA, tremor, dystonia (including torticollis,

Writer's Cramp, Blepharospasm, focal and generalized dystonias), Hemifacial spasm, tics,

chorea, athetosis, ballism, myoclonus, or a combination of these problems under the guidance

of Dr Uday Muthane, Dr Pramod kumar Pal and Dr Ravi Yadav. I have assisted in

administration of Botulinum Toxin injections for a variety of dystonias - toticollis,

blepharospams, hemifacial spasm, Writer‟s cramp and focal dystonias, evaluation of patient

with PD for Deep Brain Stimulation. I have completed a project titled “Prevalence of REM

sleep behaviour disorder in patients with Parkinson‟s disease- A questionnaire based study”

under the guidance of Dr Pramod kumar Pal and Dr Ravi Yadav during my training period in

NIMHANS.

SKILLS:

I have teaching experience of 2 years as a Senior Resident and 5 years as an

Assistant/Associate Professor in Neurology.

As an Assistant/Associate Professor at Ramaiah Medical College and hospitals, Bangalore,

India, I attend to out-patient department patients five times a week; attend to emergency

patients thrice a week over 24 hours. I take care of in-patients with timely rounds twice a day

and do daily counselling to patients and their care-givers about the illness, management and

importance of family support. I carry out and supervise electrophysiological procedures

including transcranial magnetic stimulation and tremor recording in our electrophysiological

laboratory. I am actively involved in clinical research. I teach and guide the postgraduate

students in Neurology (Doctor of medicine in neurology- 3 years training) in clinical skills,

history-taking, diagnosis and management of neurological disorders. I supervise their thesis

and guide appropriately. I do run movement disorders clinic at the hospitals once a week and

actively involved in Botox administration.
