Research Focuse Area

PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES

Computational Drug Discovery

Research in this area uses tools to discover new pharmacotherapeutic agent checkpoints’ small molecule drugs and specializes in understanding the nature and biophysical processes underlying protein-drug interaction, protein-protein interactions, protein-DNA interactions, drug off-target interactions and predicting drug-mediated toxicity.

Researchers: Dr.Shrinivas K. Mohite, Dr. Sandeep R. Kane, Mr.Venkatesh R. Dharnguttikar

Drug Delivery

A field that concentrates on formulation methods and technologies that are employed to transport pharmaceutical compounds to various sites in the body. It may include synthetic drug carrier systems capable of improving the bioavailability and/or tissue-specific targeting of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) to the site of desired drug action, such as bone drug delivery or drug targeting of cancer cells.

Researchers: Dr.Manojkumar M. Nitalikar, Dr.Mangesh A. Bhutkar, Dr. Smt. Indrayani S. Bandgar

Pharmacology and Toxicology/Neurology/Pain modulation

Research in this area aims for improving outcomes in patients with neurological emergencies (subarachnoid haemorrhage, intracerebral haemorrhage, ischemic stroke, traumatic brain injury and status epilepticus) and patients with epilepsy through pharmacotherapy optimization of existing therapies and translation of new treatments.

Researchers: Dr.Atul R. Chopade

Pharmacogancy and Phytochemistry

Pharmacognosy research plays a crucial role in discovering new drugs, improving healthcare, and promoting sustainable practices in the utilization of natural resources. Researchers in this field contribute to our understanding of the therapeutic potential of natural products and their integration into modern medicine.

Researchers: Dr. Vijay R. Salunkhe, Dr. Ganesh H. Wadkar
