BIOGRAPHY
After obtaining her PhD in the Department of Plant Sciences in 1998, Prof. Padmasree undertook the position of CSIR-RA with Prof. A.S Raghavendra. She was then appointed as Assistant Professor at University of Hyderabad in 2001 following which she established her laboratory studying the role of Alternative Oxidase in optimising photosynthesis during stress conditions. Her group also has exemplary evidences demonstrating the role of Protease Inhibitors with potential insecticidal and therapeutic properties. She has been bestowed with several memberships and also received the prestigious Alexander von Humbolt Fellowship, Germany for the years 2005 & 2007. In 2018, she became the Head of the Department of Biotechnology & Bioinformatics and in 2019 she was elected as the fellow of Telangana Academy of Sciences.
