About
I am an Professor of Pharmaceutics at Shambhunath Institute of Pharmacy, Prayagraj, with over 13 years of teaching and research experience in pharmaceutical sciences. My expertise lies in novel and nanotechnology-based drug delivery systems, including nanosuspensions, ocular nanoemulsions, nose-to-brain formulations, and herbal/nutraceutical-based therapies.
I have an M.Pharm in Pharmaceutics and recently submitted my Ph.D. in Pharmaceutics at Bundelkhand University, Jhansi. Over the years, I have published research and review articles in reputed journals and authored book chapters with Springer, CRC Press, Apple Academic Press, and IGI Global, and I have co-authored academic books.
Innovation has been a key focus of my journey—I am a co-inventor of multiple Indian and international patents, including granted design patents for smart pharmaceutical devices. In recognition of my work, I was honored with the ATDS Young Fellow Award (2023).
I am also a certified Pharmacy Council of India Inspector, a two-time GPAT qualifier, and a lifetime member of APTI and ATDS. Beyond academics, I am passionate about mentoring postgraduate students, advancing pharmaceutical education, and contributing to healthcare research.
