4 Rules of bioengineering magic! | Dr. Praveen Kumar Vemula | TEDxKIITUniversity

Dr. Praveen Kumar Vemula's lab's primary idea is to exploit the potential of self-assembled prodrug-based nanomaterials (soft and hard hybrid biomaterials) as ‘next-generation biomaterials’ in the field of translational research to solve unmet biomedical needs. He has been a pioneer of translational research in India. Their lab is focused to develop self-assembled biomaterials based on two major platform technologies for efficient delivery of nucleic acids and small molecular drugs. The potential broad applications of platform biomaterials for nucleic acid delivery, which are primarily- developing a library of biomaterials that can deliver nucleic acids efficiently in multiple cell lines, and along with collaboration with multiple groups at InStem, NCBS and elsewhere to broaden the scope of this technology. Although several nanotechnology-based therapeutics have been approved for clinical use to date, among these first-generation products, liposomal drugs, and polymer-drug conjugates are two dominant classes. However, self-assembled soft materials are seldom seen in this area due to some intrinsic limitations. His lab aims to overcome major hurdles in bringing self-assembled biomaterials into clinical applications. Mr. Vemula has been providing a better living and sustainable lifestyle to millions of agonised farmers of our nation. His brainchild, the prophylactic induced topical gel, Poly-Oxime, prevents pesticide-induced toxicity and lethality among farmers.
