Dr. Pradeep Kumar is an environmental microbiologist and aerosol scientist whose research focuses on bioaerosols, air quality, and environmental health. His work integrates aerosol monitoring, microbiology, molecular biology, and environmental exposure assessment to investigate airborne particulate matter, microbial contaminants, antimicrobial resistance, and emerging pollutants such as microplastics. He has extensive experience in field-based air quality monitoring, bioaerosol characterization, source apportionment, and public health risk assessment, with applications in agricultural, indoor, and urban environments. Research Interests Bioaerosols and airborne microbial communities Air quality monitoring and exposure assessment Environmental and public health Particulate matter characterization and source attribution Indoor environmental quality and respiratory health Antimicrobial resistance in environmental systems Airborne microplastics and emerging contaminants Aerosol science and environmental monitoring technologies One Health approaches to environmental health challenges
