About Chirag


Bio

Academically, I trained as a physician in India, pursued advanced research training at UC San Diego (including postdoctoral work), and completed the Diploma in Pharmaceutical Medicine (DPM) through the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Medicine in the UK. Professionally, I work in clinical development, where accuracy and communication are non-negotiable. Real decisions depend on your ability to understand complex information and explain it cleanly.

Academically, I trained as a physician in India, pursued advanced research training at UC San Diego (including postdoctoral work), and completed the Diploma in Pharmaceutical Medicine (DPM) through the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Medicine in the UK. Professionally, I work in clinical development, where accuracy and communication are non-negotiable. Real decisions depend on your ability to understand complex information and explain it cleanly. If you work with me, you’ll get someone who’s calm, structured, and genuinely invested in your growth—someone who will push you in the right ways, support you in the hard parts, and help you build confidence that sticks.

I’ve taught across a wide range of ages and settings: I was a piano tutor for children as young as 5, which built my foundation in patience, structure, and skill-building through small, consistent steps. Later, I trained experienced physicians in practical RT-PCR laboratory workflows, and served as a teaching assistant in medical school pathology, helping students understand and apply complex concepts clearly and accurately. While I believe there is a place for didactic learning, my personal preference as a learner is in Socratic methods.

Approved Subjects

Epidemiology

Epidemiology

I’ve been formally trained in epidemiology both during medical school and through my Master’s in Clinical Research. I’m comfortable with study design, bias/confounding, and interpreting clinical evidence with a practical, real-world lens. I use epidemiologic thinking to turn data into clear conclusions that actually hold up under scrutiny.
Pharmacology

Pharmacology

I’ve had substantial pharmacology training through medical school and formal coursework in pharmaceutical medicine, and I translate that into clear, teachable explanations. I help students connect mechanisms to real clinical decisions—why drugs work, what drives side effects, and how dosing actually makes sense. My teaching is structured and practical, so learners can apply the concepts confidently in exams and in practice.
Piano

Piano

I hold a Grade 7 Piano certification from Trinity College London and have over 10 years of experience teaching piano. I’ve worked with students across a wide range of ages and skill levels, from young beginners to more advanced learners preparing for exams and performances. My lessons focus on strong fundamentals—technique, rhythm, sight-reading, and musicality—while keeping practice realistic and motivating. I aim to build confidence and consistency, so students make steady progress and actually enjoy playing.
