Dr. Caramel
Chief Paw-sitivity Officer & Lead Lab Retriever

 

Dr. Caramel  or "Caramel" as he’s waggingly known, is the top dog when it comes to keeping spirits high at the Chaturvedi Lab. As a pup of great paws-pertise, he’s dedicated to ensuring the team stays paws-itively motivated, reducing stress with his fur-tunate presence and tail-wagging enthusiasm. 

Caramel earned his BS (Barking Science) at Fetchington University, where he excelled in courses like Advanced Tail Wagging and Canine Communication. He then pursued his MS (Master of Snuggles) at Pawsford Institute, focusing on stress reduction and team morale through strategic napping and cuddles. Finally, Dr. Caramel achieved his prestigious PhD (Doctorate in Pure Happiness Delivery) from the University of Woofbridge, where his groundbreaking thesis, "The Role of Play in Human Emotional Support," earned top honors. His academic background, combined with real-world experience in the lab, makes him the top dog in fostering a paws-itive work environment.

With a nose for good vibes and a talent for fur-st rate cuddles, Dr. Caramel has mastered the science of napping, playtime, and paw-sitive reinforcement. Whether he's barking up a storm of encouragement or offering a much-needed belly rub break, he has a paw-some ability to fetch smiles during even the ruffest research days.

When he’s not busy paw-trolling the lab, Caramel enjoys long walks (on the bark side), chasing tennis balls, and conducting extensive belly rub research. His contributions may not be data-driven, but his impact on the team’s well-being is paws-itively immeasurable.
