Profile

Research Experience

Dr. Sandipan Ganguly is presently working as Scientist E, Department of Parasitology at ICMR-NICED. His Post-Doctoral training is from Saint Louis University, USA, Gunma University and Keio University, Japan. He has been working on various aspects of enteric parasitology with special emphasis on molecular and cellular aspects of pathogenicity in enteric parasites and rational drug designing and targeting. His publications include more than 45 scientific papers in renowned International journals, one cover page photograph and nine book chapters. He is life member of The Indian Science Congress Association, Society for Biological Chemists, Indian Society for Parasitology, Indian Academy of Tropical Parasitology, and Indian Society for Translational Research.

Research Interests

The main focus of his work is to study different molecular and cellular aspects of biochemistry in enteric parasites. Which can be used for rational drug designing and targeting in different systems. Studies on these aspects will be useful in future for fighting against very primitive but extant gastrointestinal disease like giardiasis, amoebiasis etc. His present focus is on pathogenicity and drug targeting in Giardiasis, pathogenic detection of Entamoeba from high resolution sequencing, new molecular diagnosis and molecular epidemiology of Coccidians and other enteric parasites. He is also involved in Soil Transmitted Helminth prevalence mapping in India and its research.
