We work in the areas of string theory, D-branes and various string inflationary models. In the past few years our research focus has been on AdS/CFT duality especially on the study of semiclassical strings in Anti-de Sitter space and its integrable deformations. We are further interested in the study of D-branes in various time dependent exact string backgrounds by using the methods of effective field theory and conformal field theory. We also work in the areas of higher spn gauge theories.
