About this title

About the Authors

Dr. Sai Sathish Ramamurthy’s research is focuses on the development of indigenously designed low-cost medical diagnostic technologies that have a translational and convergent approach for the benefit of society. Recently, his research work on the development of COVID-19 diagnostic technology resulted in low-cost high-sensitive SARS-CoV-19 antigen and antibodies detection kits. His collaboration with research groups at various universities in the USA, Australia, Japan and India have resulted in several publications in reputed journals, conferences, patents, books and book chapters. He was a Ramalingaswami Fellow, Department of Biotechnology, Government of India, and received research funding from Govt agencies such as DST, DBT, DRDO, ICMR and also from Non-Govt agencies such as Tata Education and Development Trust. He created the Surface Plasmon based Translational and Advanced Research (STAR) laboratory that has developed multiple biomedical technologies targeting the whitespaces in the medical diagnostics capable for usage in resource-limited settings, especially for the bottom of the pyramid

Dr. Seemesh Bhaskar is a Carl R. Woese Institute for Genomic Biology (IGB) fellow at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), USA. He completed his Ph.D. from STAR Lab, Central Research Instruments Facility (CRIF), SSSIHL, and postdoctoral studies from NanoStructured Materials (NSM) group, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Bombay. He has pursued research internships at SASTRA University and the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, as part of the DST-Inspire program. He is the recipient of the prestigious DST-Inspire scholarship & fellowship, AWSAR, K. V. Rao Scientific Society (KVRSS), Young Achiever, M.Sc. Chemistry Gold medal and All-rounder Gold medal awards. His research work focuses on building effective nano-engineering protocols for photo-plasmonic biosensing at advanced interfaces comprising sustainable bioinspired polymeric hybrids.

Narendra Reddy is a prominent researcher in the field of biopolymeric materials. He currently holds the position of Professor and Ramalingaswami fellow at the Center for Incubation Innovation Research and Consultancy. He obtained his doctoral degree from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in USA in the year 2006. He has published about 175 research papers in high impact journals, five books and 12 book chapters. He also holds an US patent. His work has been reported by CNN, Discovery, Nature, American Chemical Society and other major news agencies. He was a recipient of the prestigious Ramalingaswami Fellowship from the Department of Biotechnology, Government of India. He has received funding for his research from DST, DBT and CEFIPRA (India-France joint funding). He is also the founder of a start-up “Agringenium Innovations Private Limited” which has been selected by Niti Aayog for funding through the Atal New India Challenge (ANIC).
