Dr. Murugan received his B. Pharmacy degree from The Tamil Nadu Dr. M.G.R Medical University, INDIA. He did his M.S., and Ph.D., research work in the field of Bionanotechnology and obtained degree in Biomedical Engineering (Bionanotechnology) from Gachon University, South Korea. In S. Korea, Murugan worked on biofunctionalized metal, metalloid and carbon-polymer nanomaterials for anti-microbial and electrochemical biosensor application. Dr. Murugan was a GRSTB Postdoctoral Fellow at Université de Montréal, QC, where he worked on bio-functionalized metalloid-polymer and graphene oxide nanostructures for non-enzymatic and enzymatic bioassay of cancer marker. Dr. James is the Chief Scientist & Head of EEC Division and holding Adjunct Professorship in Chemical Science in AcSIR, Ghaziabad. His research is focused on the fundamental aspects of chemically modified electrodes, basic & developmental aspects of chemical sensors, synthesis of new (nano)materials for electrocatalysis, sensor construction and energy related applications. As a project coordinator/team leader he has contributed several sponsored projects from Government of India as well as private R&D organizations. Dr. James is the author of numerous research paper (>70) in peer-reviewed journals; theme coordinator for skill development course on “Electroanalytical Techniques for (Bio)Sensing and (Electro)catalytic Applications” funded by Science &Technology Division of CSIR-CECRI; and chairman of CSIR-CECRI safety committee. Dr. Mohana completed her B. Pharmacy from The Tamil Nadu Dr. M.G.R Medical University. She was a Clinical Research Coordinator working on Phase III Clinical Trial program (2007-2008) at the department of Pulmonology in Sri Ramakrishna Multi-speciality Hospital Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. She accomplished M.S., and Ph.D., at the College of BioNanotechnology, Gachon University, South Korea, with a Major in Biomedical Engineering. Her postgraduate and Ph.D., studies involve development of Microfluidic platform for polymer microfiber synthesis, tissue engineering, 3D co-culture of Cells, CMOS System for Immunoassay and ECIS for Cell-Drug Assays.
