Current focus of our research group is development and standardization of animal models of metabolic syndrome: type II diabetes, wound healing sepsis, cancer, iron deficiency anaemia, neurodegenerative diseases and testing of novel targets, natural products, probiotics and their metabolites for their therapeutic activities in in-vitro and in-vivo systems. Our lab has done extensive studies to establish therapeutic role of gelsolin, probiotics and their secondary metabolites in inflammation, diabetes, wound healing etc. Besides this, we are also interested to study safety and efficacy of new chemical entities and small peptides against cancer, antifungal and neurodegenerative diseases (Parkinson and Alzheimer diseases). We welcome students/research fellows who are interested in learning and contributing to the advancement in these areas to join our group in IMTECH.
