BSBE Seminar Spotlight |
Ankush Aggarwal (Reader at the James Watt School of Engineering, University of Glasgow ) delivered a seminar on "Understanding Diseases of the Aorta Through Computer Simulations".
@iitbombay @UofGEngineering #IITBBSBESeminars (1/3)
The talk focused on the aorta, the main blood vessel that carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body. When the aorta becomes enlarged or weak, it can lead to serious health problems. (2/3)
He explained how medical images and computer simulations can help researchers understand these conditions, study differences between individuals, and improve how doctors identify and manage aortic diseases.

PhD. Thesis Spotlight | Lisha Awasthi
Lisha defended her PhD. thesis titled "Regional Drug Delivery Systems to Treat Endometriosis".
Many Congratulations to Lisha and her thesis advisors Rohit Srivastava and Jayesh Bellare @AwasthiLisha @iitbombay #theBSBEgrad (1/4)
Instead of medicines travelling throughout the body, her research developed special biodegradable devices that slowly release medicine over time. This could help reduce side effects and make treatment more effective.

Lab and preclinical studies showed that localized drug delivery could improve endometriosis treatment. The work supports safer, more effective therapies and advances women's reproductive healthcare.

Anvesh Ashtam defended his PhD. thesis titled "Elucidation of the Antiproliferative Mechanisms of Combretastatin-A4 Analogues: QTMP, Triazolosulfonamide C16 and Pyrrole 12e". Many Congratulations to Anvesh and his thesis advisor Dulal Panda @iitbombay #theBSBEgrad (1/2)
Anvesh's research studied a new group of compounds that can stop cancer cells from growing and dividing. His work helped explain how these compounds act inside cells and showed their potential for use in future cancer treatments. #CancerTherapy #DrugDiscovery #CellBiology (2/2)
Over the past 40 years, the Department of Biosciences & Bioengineering (BSBE) at
@iitbombay has built a legacy where biology meets engineering. Here is a thread on its evolution. (1/11)
Continuing this trajectory of growth, the department is now preparing to open its newest landmark - the BSBE Annexe building - in 2027. (10/11)
Read the Vol. 3 issue of the BSBE Newsletter (lnkd.in/dikYhdwf) where we look back on the early days of the Department.
