Kolkata, February, 2022: Dr. Suryyani Deb, Assistant Professor at the Department of Biotechnology, Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology (MAKAUT), WB was associated in an undergraduate/postgraduate course on: Materials in Medicine (SURG0120) at London’s global university, University College London (UCL) [https://www.ucl.ac.uk/module-catalogue/modules/materials-in-medicine-SURG0120]. Dr. Deb contributed in developing the content, lecturing, tutoring, and evaluating the said module. International students from different UCL programs [BSc Applied Medical Sciences, BSc Medical Innovation and Enterprise, MSci Applied Medical Sciences, MSci Medical Innovation and Enterprise, MBBS Medicine] at the Faculty of Medical Sciences participated in this module. As a part and success of this exercise, a teaching/research collaboration with MAKAUT, WB is under discussion.
Dr. Suryyani Deb joined at the Department of Biotechnology as UGC-Assistant Professor in 2019. She is a Ph.D. holder from the Department of Biochemistry, University of Calcutta in 2011. She is an expert in platelet biology and blood-nanoparticle interactions. She is the first to report most of the bare metallic nanoparticles can activate platelets functions. Her investigation on how haemostasis and platelet function affected by nanoforms are highly appreciated by the scientific community. Her work also recognised with coverage and cover storey in Nanomedicine. During her academic career, she spent research stays at National Institute of Immunohaematology (NIIH), Mumbai, where she explored theranostics (combined approach with diagnosis and therapy) for arterial thrombosis. In Sweden, at Linkoping University, she investigated effect of Tyrosine Kinase inhibitors on platelet function and platelet microparticle formation. She has returned India on 2017 with DST Young Scientist award to initiate and lead a research team and granted with BIRAC DBT project. She has published several scientific articles in high impact journals with cover page and cover story and she has also granted with US patent and WIPO. She is presently associated with several international collaborations in UK (University of Cambridge), Sweden (LiU and Orebro) and USA (Harvard University).
