About

Mohana Krishna Reddy Mudiam, Director, Institute of Pesticide Formulation Technology (IPFT), Gurugram having expertise in Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry with specialization in Food Safety, Environmental Toxicology and Biopharmaceuticals characterization. He has 24 years of research experience in Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry with applications in Environmental, Health, Food, Pharmaceutical and Forensic Sciences. His group research interests are mainly focused in understanding the occurrence/fate, transport and accumulation of chemicals in Pharmaceuticals, Food, Environment and Biological samples using latest analytical and metabolomics approaches. His group efforts yielded several miniaturized analytical methods for the analysis of toxicants/contaminants in various food, biological and environmental matrices. He successfully established metabolomics in India as a comprehensive screening tool to understand/evaluating the (i) toxicity of xenobiotics in various model organisms, (ii) effect of ripening agents on the fruit metabolome and (iii) metabolic profiles in plants through Phytometabolomics. He is instrumental in the establishment of GLP compliant analytical facility for biologics and biosimilars characterization at CSIR-IICT, Hyderabad and Test Facility Management for IPFT/OECD-GLP facility in Agrochemicals. He guided 18 Ph.Ds. so far and authored more than 120 publications in peer-reviewed international journals with more than 4400 citations (h index of 40). He is recipient of Fellow of Royal Society of Chemistry (FRSC), ISMAS Eminent Mass Spectrometrist Award, BRSI Industrial Medal Award, CSIR Technology Award for Innovation for his work on COVAXIN, Fellow of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana Academies of Sciences (FTAS & FAPAS) and several other appreciations. He visited countries like USA, Germany, France, Australia, China and Taiwan as part of his scientific collaborations and/or assignments.
