Our Lab focuses on developing the fluorescent carbon nanoparticles and surface modifying them for biomedical applications such as bioimaging, wound healing, cancer diagnosis and therapeutics, neuronal differentiation, biosensing, and targeted drug delivery.

The broader reserach theme areas are as follows:

1. Enhancing Stability and Cellular Uptake of Anticancer Peptides Using Carbon Dot Nanocarriers in Breast Cancer. 

2. Green synthesized carbon quantum dots assisted Lateral Flow Assay device for Prostate Cancer diagnosis. 

3. Development of artificial intelligence learning platforms for predicting smart nanoparticle design for biomedical applications.

4. Rational design of carbon dot based vaccine delivery systems: Nipah virus as a model pathogen.
