After receiving her Ph.D. from the University of Delhi, Dr. Jasra was highly involved in research with the Department of Zoology as Assistant Professor. She has done her postdoctoral research in the Department of Biological Sciences, University of Windsor. Dr. Jasra has received awards for the highest SET scores and the highest score for sessional instructors. She is actively involved in many Forensic Sciences research projects including the biomarkers for early myocardial infarction.
Research Projects:
- Recognition of Myocardial Infarction by Immunostaining
- Post-Mortem Alterations in the Muscle: Time and Temperature Dependence of Selective Bio Markers
