Dr. Ria S.に依頼

India

Research scientist with a strong background in Inorganic Chemistry and Protein Chemical Biology.

プロフィール概要

I hold a PhD in Inorganic Chemistry (small molecule metallo-biomimetics and coordination chemistry) with 1 year of teaching experience in Undergraduate and Postgraduate Chemistry and 4 years of postdoctoral research experience (protein biochemistry, molecular biology and drug discovery). I am a highly innovative, enthusiastic and detail-oriented scientist working at the interface of enzymology, spectroscopy, metalloprotein engineering, and small-molecule discovery to clarify enzymatic mechanisms and lay the groundwork for the development of drugs that can slow or reverse a disease. I have 19 publications in peer-reviewed international journals and several others are in process of submission (https://www.linkedin.com/in/ria-sanyal-ph-d-17478348/; https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=9MIHMGsAAAAJ&hl=en). My core interests lie in successfully implementing diverse technologies from inorganic chemistry and chemical biology to study the interaction between metalloenzymes and small molecule activators/inhibitors to support the development of novel therapeutics for the treatment of unmet medical needs. My current research goals are as follows: (i) study and design of “druggable” metalloenzymes crucial to cardiovascular and infectious disease pathways, (ii) enzyme-based method development of gaseous (O2/NO) affinity measurements of specific gas-utilizing enzymes, finally leading to (iii) the development of therapeutic strategies by validation of small molecules and biologics. To complement my research qualifications, I thrive to be a proficient mentor, science communicator and a part-time peer-reviewer for several international journals affiliated to American Chemical Society, Springer Nature Publishing House, and Science Direct. My passion in academic writing (manuscripts, grants, SOPs, etc.) and research consulting drives me to academic paltforms like Kolabtree to share my expertise in troubleshooting or conceptualizing a related scientific problem. My technical skillset involves: • Synthesis- small organic molecules, transition metal-complexes, nanoparticles • Single crystal XRD and structure elucidation (small molecules) • Characterization technique- Mass (MALDI-TOF, ESI-MS, LC-MS), FTIR, TGA • Spectroscopy- UV-vis absorption, Fluorescence, Luminescence, EPR, CD • Biological techniques (basic)- Molecular biology and biochemistry techniques (gel electrophoresis, western blot, PCR) • Biological techniques (advanced)- Protein expression/purification/crystallization (FPLC) (Team leader); Mammalian cell culture; Maintenance of cell lines • Enzyme kinetics- UV-vis based anerobic assays; transient kinetics by Stopped-flow measurement. • Bionalaysis- Low-throughput screening of fragment library by UV-vis, Florescence polarization and Luminescence. • Computation- molecular docking of protein to small molecule • Softwares- MS Office, Chem Draw, Origin, Graphpad Prism, Mercury, VMD, Pymol, Bioedit, Maestro, Endnote Plus, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator etc. • Biochemical Instrumentation- Laboratory super-person for Bruker MALDI-TOF, ESI-MS, LC-MS, ICP-OES and Typhoon gel-doc imager. Laboratory manager of Bio-rad PCR, Akta/Bio-rad FPLC and Coylabs Glovebag. Frequent user of Cary 4000 UV-Vis, ESI-MS, Centrifuges, Tecan microplate multimode reader, Applied Photophysics Stopped-flow, SDS-PAGE/DNA Gel electrophoresis, Semi-dry Western blot transfer, Biosafety cabinet, Cell counter My awards and achievements: Presented 1 oral presentation and 6 poster presentations in international scientific conferences, 2011-2020  10 first author (and total 19) publications in peer-reviewed international journals, total citations>350  Mentored 8 graduate students, 4 undergraduate students and 1 integrated Ph.D. student, 2011-2020  Science editor for departmental magazine, The Elixir, 2016-2018.  Actively involved in coordinating on-site Vijyoshi Camp, IISc (2016-2018) and in the outreach activities of Diversity and Inclusion Committee, UMN &Women in Science and Engineering, UMN (2018-2020) and involved part-time with Club SciWri as a science communicator (2021).  Newton-Bhabha Researcher Links Workshop travel award, 2018  International travel support award, Science and Engineering Research Board, 2019  Dr. D.
