RESEARCH INTERESTS
My research interests are in the field of materials chemistry, nanomaterials, supramolecular chemistry, 2D nanomaterials and enzyme based biodegradable nanomotors for both biomedical and agricultural applications.
Current Projects (Looking for research candidates):
1) Enzyme powered nanomotors for biomedical applications.
2) Developing biodegradable nanomotors for lab-on-a-chip approach.
3) Nanobots for targetting sub-cellualr organelles in plants.
4) Green Chemistry approach towards fabricating biodegradable nanomotors.
5) Fabricating nanomotors from polysacchrides extracted from organic waste.
6) Mechanochemsitry approach for synthesis of organic frameworks.
