Swati studied law in India and practiced as an advocate in Indian courts. Her interest in the workings of International Trade Law brought her to England where she pursued her second Masters degree at the Brunel University in London.

In 2016, Swati was awarded a PhD from the University of Manchester on her research entitled The Impact of International Trade in Healthcare Services under GATS on the Right to Health: A Study of Medical Tourism in India.<\/em><\/p>\n Swati is interested in areas and issues related to social justice, sustainable development and human rights, including the right to health and education as well as societal impact of international trade and economic globalisation. Swati is especially interested in examining the normative interplay and assessing the impact of trade liberalisation on human rights. More specifically, Swati focuses on the socio-legal implications of trade laws in the area of international trade in healthcare services (such as medical tourism, reproductive and wellness tourism) and the right to health. She has written papers on intellectual property rights in India, the socio-legal implications of reproductive tourism in India, as well as medical tourism and health equity.<\/p>\n S.
