Microbial Biophysics & Design (μBiD) Group
Multiscale Dynamics to Antimicrobial Innovation
At μBiD lab, we decode microbial systems across the scales - from molecules to communities - using tools from computational and theoretical biophysics, AI and microbiology experiments, with the goal of advancing therapeutic design. 🦠
We are an interdisciplinary research group in the Department of Biochemical Engg. and Biotechnology @IIT Delhi, focused on understanding microbial dynamics and designing innovative antimicrobial solutions. By integrating expertise across biophysics, continuum physics, molecular dynamics, artificial intelligence, stochastic computing, and microbiology, our goal is to build multiscale models that not only elucidate microbial behavior but also drive real-world therapeutic innovations.
Why Join Us?
We bring together microbiology, AI, and biophysical modelling to tackle antimicrobial resistance and ecological challenges through a truly interdisciplinary approach. By joining us, you’ll gain opportunities to work at the intersection of theory, computation and experiment, contribute to innovative biomimetic strategies, and collaborate within a dynamic, forward-thinking research environment.
