Sonkar  has been Founder and Co- Director at NUS Life-sciences Pvt Ltd  New Delhi India and heading position as scientific Advisory NUS Services and solution Pvt Ltd.   He have deep research experience in the field of assays and vaccine developments for sexually transmitted diseases during PhD.  He received his Ph.D in Biomedical Science (Clinical Microbiology of Infectious Diseases from Dr. B. R. Ambedkar Center for Biomedical Research, University of Delhi, Delhi, India.

He did his master’s in applied microbiology from Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi Uttar Pradesh India, and completed my master research work from Department of Microbiology, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India. My Master thesis was focused on to Quantification and characterization of Broncho-Alveolar Lavage (BAL) for the diagnosis of Lower Respiratory Tract. During My Master, I studied antibiotic overuses in diseases managements.

Eventual progress to public health gave me a scope to understand real world issues and find solutions to complex projects through systematic evaluation, field study, knowledge management, market and stakeholder assessment, robustly supported by National Institute of Health as GHES awards (2018-2019) affiliated with Florida International University, Miami USA and conducted research at Public Health Research Institute of India at Mysore Karnataka India

He worked with different three research project sponsor from NIH USA, Department of sciences technology Government of India and BIRAC-Department of Biotechnology, Government of India. During my Postdoctoral, I learned basic transnational research with more than 04 years of post-PhD & 12 year of post MSc experience in medical biotechnology, assay developments, public health and technology assessment.
