My research leverages a strong record of formal training in clinical biochemistry, from my Bachelor and Master’s programs, and a Doctoral degree in the field of Applied Biotechnology. I have vast research experience in developing complex membrane-bound redox proteins from microbial sources, and characterizing their physicochemical functional properties toward potential applications, the synthesis of industrially important products, and enzyme-based biosensors and biofuel cells. Furthermore, I have gained immense experience in several biochemical, biophysical, and molecular expression tools, focusing on protein crystallization in metalloproteins, de novo crystal structures, and the determination of novel iron–sulfur proteins from archaebacteria containing both eukaryotic and prokaryotic subunits with key cellular functions. Being a multi-disciplinary bio-scientist, I have led multiple research grants in the design and development of novel enzymes and novel bio-based green solvents, and their employment in bio-renewable energy research. I also lead a research and development team developing probiotic gut microbiota toward improving human health and immunity. My current research activity includes nutraceutical research projects pertaining to muscle physiology, which complement collaborative studies examining protein–ligand interactions of different cellular metabolites in diverse pathophysiological conditions.
