Dr. Hemlata Srivastava has completed Ph.D. in 2013 from the ICMR- National Institute of Malaria Research, New Delhi entitled “The effect of natural selection of immune genes of An. minimus species A” and degree is awarded from Jiwaji University, Gwalior. During the period of research Dr. Srivastava was first researcher who has reported novel genome sequences of Indian malaria vector An. minimus. She has developed biomarkers for analyzing the genetic diversity and studied effect of natural selection based on immune and insecticide resistant genes using the population genomics approach. Dr. Srivastava has also developed the phylogenetic relationship based on functionally important genes among Indian malaria vectors which is one of the pioneer studies in the field of vector biology. During the period of research, Dr. Srivastava was availed various fellowships and research grant that were funded by various national and international bodies such as INSA, ICMR, DBT, and US-AID. These projects were closely related to vector and parasite interaction and coevolution of gene families in disease vectors in the field of malaria. This insightful information could be applied also in any area of research for infectious diseases. She has around 10 research papers that were published in reputed national and international peer reviewed journal. Apart from research, Dr, Srivastava has 4.8 years teaching experience.
