Gopan Krishnan Principal Investigator Gopan completed his doctoral studies in Bioanalytical Chemistry at the University of Connecticut, Storrs, USA, under the guidance of Prof. James Rusling. He furthered his research as a postdoctoral fellow at Oxford University in the United Kingdom, working under the mentorship of Prof. Fraser Armstrong. Currently, his research group focuses on various areas, including the development of multiplex approaches for infectious diseases, validation of high-quality cancer biomarker assays to support clinical studies and trials, point-of-need and wearable sensors, meat science, and novel nano-biomaterial designs to address pharmaceutical, biocatalytic, sensor, and clean energy needs. Gopan is a peer reviewer for more than 45 esteemed journals published by ACS, RSC, Wiley, Springer, and Elsevier publishers. He also contributes his expertise to grant review panels of federal funding agencies. Furthermore, he dedicates his efforts to the Biomedical Research Exposure program for STEM students at OSU, a research initiative funded by the National Institutes of Health.
