Research Interests center on recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), reproductive immunology, and assisted reproductive technology (ART). Her work investigates maternal immune system interactions with fetal antigens, HLA polymorphisms, and plasma protein levels like mannose-binding lectin (MBL). She has studied the impact of H-Y restricting HLA alleles and autoantibody formation in RPL patients.

Publications (2023–2024) reveal a focus on clinical trials for immunomodulatory treatments (IVIG/prednisolone) and genetic/immunological markers affecting pregnancy outcomes. Key subfields include autoimmune disorders, maternal-fetal immunology, and clinical trials in reproductive health.

Recent Activities include presenting at the 2020 conference on MBL as a risk factor for RPL and media coverage (2024) discussing IVIG/prednisolone treatment efficacy in pregnancy loss prevention.
