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 Carl R. Woese Institute for Genomic Biology (IGB) fellow at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). He completed his PhD 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 Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, as part of the DST-Inspire program. His collaboration with research groups at various universities such as IIT-Bombay, IIT-Kharagpur, IIT-Gandhinagar has resulted in publications in reputed international peer-reviewed journals and conference proceedings. 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
