About
I am Dr. R. Krishnamoorthi, Ph.D., an Indian microbiologist and postdoctoral researcher at the Pharmaceutics Laboratory, Graduate Institute of Natural Products, Chang Gung University, Taiwan. I earned my doctorate in Microbiology from The Gandhigram Rural Institute, India, where my research focused on myco‑engineered silver‑gold nanocomposites with bacteriocin for antimicrobial and wound‑healing applications. My academic path also includes a master’s and bachelor’s degree in microbiology, both with distinction.
Professionally, I have worked as a Senior Project Associate at CSIR‑NIIST in Kerala, a Spices Research Trainee at the Indian Cardamom Research Institute- Kerala, and a Project Consultant at EReKY Labs in Tamil Nadu. My research interests span nanomedicine, hydrogels, antimicrobial resistance, immunomodulatory biomaterials, targeted drug delivery, cancer biology, probiotics, and mushroom technology. I have published 37 papers with an h-index of 19, i-10 of 22, and 3 book chapters, and I hold 1 Indian patent. I also serve as an editorial board member and peer reviewer for leading international journals.
