Current projects capitalize on the unique properties of carbon nanobiomaterials to develop Advanced contrast agents (CAs) for molecular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), nanocomposites to improve the physical and biological (osteoconduction and osteoinduction) properties of polymer scaffolds for bone tissue engineering and non-viral vectors for gene transfection.

Our research work involves material synthesis techniques, physico-chemical characterization techniques, tissue culture and in vivo studies.
