Biography

Dr. Sharmistha Dey is Associate Professor in Department of Biophysics, All India institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi. Her main areas of area of research involve natural proteins and peptides of biological significance under three broad groups: bio-markers of cancer, bio-markers of ageing and age related diseases and plant proteins with therapeutic value. She serves as the Senior Scientific Officer for ten-years in biomedical research. She has developed some protein marker for Oral cancer, pancreatic cancer and breast cancer and age related disease like Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and frailty. Her group is actively involved in design and synthesis of peptides with property to modulate the activities of the proteins, which can be of value in drug development in future and designed synthesized peptides which are effective against multi-drug resistant microbes. Currently she is working on evaluating select Ayurvedic plant products for their possible role in age related diseases. All these work has been published in high impact scientific journals for which she has been received AIIMS Excellence Award in 2012, 2014, 2015 & 2016. She has received Surinder Marwah award 2016 from ICMR for best research in Biogerontoly in India.
