About Dr. Divya Singh
I completed my undergraduate (BS) and post-graduate (MS) degrees in First Class from Banaras Hindu University (BHU), Varanasi, India. I joined PhD program at BHU after competing in a university held graduate admission examination in India. My research specialization is primarily in genetics, proteomics, metabolomics and toxicological evaluation. I investigate the extent of damage in cell membrane, level of osmolytes and antioxidant, variation in protein expression, antioxidant enzyme activities and extent of DNA damage with prolonging duration of malathion and salt application in roots of Allium cepa plant. I have 8-peer reviewed publications, 4 book chapters, 1 edited book and several meeting presentations at local and international scientific meetings.
