IIT GANDHINAGAR

The Discipline of Biological Engineering at IIT Gandhinagar opened its doors in 2012 with a modest group of 1 faculty member and 2 Ph.D. students. We have since made great strides and currently host 11 core faculty members, a number of associated faculty members from other disciplines, a diverse group of Ph.D. and M. Tech students and several talented postdoctoral researchers.

Research interests of our discipline members include Fundamentals of Cell and Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Cancer Biology, Neurobiology, DNA Nanotechnology, Biomedical Imaging, Computational Biology, Plant Developmental Biology, Allograft therapy and Biomaterials and Structural Biology.

Our faculty members are also associated with interdisciplinary centres- Centre for Cognitive and Brain Sciences and Centre for Biomedical Engineering
