Dr. Gurpreet Singh is working as a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Biomechanics at the School of Engineering and Materials Science (SEMS), Queen Mary University of London (QMUL), UK. His work focuses on developing optimized titanium metal augments for revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) using 3D metal printing. Before joining QMUL, he was a Research Associate at the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, where he earned his PhD in Biomedical Engineering as a Prime Minister's Research Fellow (PMRF). His interdisciplinary research spans biomimetics, tissue mechanics, artificial tissue development, computational biomechanics, and medical intervention development. During his PhD, he developed biomechanical models for diabetic foot ulcers and designed a modular insole for pressure offloading. He has also worked on developing artificial tissue surrogates for various human tissues (including brain, skin, gallbladder, etc.) and computational models of brain aneurysms, integrating experimental and simulation approaches. Previously, during his MTech, he worked on surface modification of metallic biomaterials using electro-discharge treatment to improve the surface bioactivity. His work involved surface coatings on Ti alloys, 316L SS, and Co-Cr-based biomaterials, and the evaluation of their performance in terms of wear resistance, corrosion behavior, and cellular compatibility, laying a strong foundation in biomaterials and surface engineering.
To date, he has contributed 50+ peer-reviewed journal publications and presented his research at multiple international conferences. He has also authored several monograph books and co-edited two volumes, further reflecting his commitment to scientific dissemination. He has received several recognitions, including the Top Cited Paper Award (IOP Publishing 2023) for his review article on the mechanical properties of soft human tissues, the Research Excellence Travel Award (RETA) from IIT Delhi in 2024, and the Dogra Educational Endowment Award (2025) for best scientific publication in Biomedical Engineering at IIT Delhi. He is serving as a reviewer for leading international journals (Nature Portfolio, Elsevier, Taylor & Francis, Springer, ACS, IOP Science, SAGE, and many more) and aims to translate engineering research into real-world healthcare solutions.
Please feel free to reach out if my research aligns with your interests. I welcome open discussions and would be glad to explore potential collaborations on future topics in biomechanics.
