Profile

Dr. Amol Suryawanshi is an eminent scientist extensively working in area on Clinical proteomics more than 15 years. He has completed his graduation and post-graduation in veterinary sciences from Mumbai veterinary college, Mumbai. He received his Ph.D. from ICMR-National Institute for Research in Reproductive Health, Mumbai. His lab works in area of Clinical Proteomics with major focus to understand variations in cellular proteome due to various biological/disease conditions using high throughput mass spectrometry- based proteomics approaches and decipher their significance/role in cellular physiology and disease pathogenesis. His overall goal is Disease Proteome Mapping, Bio-marker discovery in various clinical diseases, decipher the role of important protein/s in disease pathogenesis, and Post-transnational modification/s (PTMs) and their role in diseases At present, focus is on the diseases such as cancers (Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, Cervical / ovarian cancer) and viral diseases (Rabies, COVID-19, Chikungunya, Dengue).

Current Focus Areas

  • Clinical Proteomics: Understanding of cancer and viral diseases through clinical proteomics

  • Disease Proteome Mapping to understand biology or Disease Pathogenesis

  • Bio-marker discovery in various clinical diseases

  • To decipher the role of important protein/s in disease pathogenesis

  • Post-transnational modification/s (PTMs) and their role in disease pathogenesis
