I am a physician-scientist at New York Institute of Technology (NYIT). I am board certified in family medicine and osteopathic manual therapy as well as integrative medicine. My clinical practice is subspecialized in neuromusculoskeletal and osteopathic manipulative medicine. I use the combination of my medical training and basic neuroscience knowledge to do translational clinical research. My research investigates the effects of osteopathic manual medicine on motor & non-motor signs & symptoms of movement disorders. I also serve on the NYIT IRB.

I am interested in studies of diabetes mellitus (DM) on based on endocrinogy and pathophysiology of hyponatremia. My hypothesis is that vascular disturbance in patients with DM may be due to morning hypertension and that patients with type 2 DM may be due a deficeny of secretion or function in incretin-related hormones. Another hypothesis is that true hyponatremia underling many pathophysiologhys before treating with drugs may be clear using caridiac echogram.

Sandeep received competitive junior research fellowship and the senior research fellowship from the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research for his doctoral research work. His doctoral thesis was based on the understanding of protein folding and unfolding mechanisms and its implications in disease conditions. He carried out postdoctoral research at the National Institutes of Health, Maryland and Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique, France before moving to MD Anderson Cancer Center, Texas. Currently, he is working on the projects related to the determination of the binding site of broadly neutralizing antibody and gp120 and its implication in gp120 vaccine development. He has authored numerous publications, two book chapters and reviewed a number of manuscripts for at least three different journals.
