  •    Biografi/ Biography :

  • His primary research interests lie regeneration of peripheral nerve and spinal cord regeneration after injury, by utilizing various cellular, biomaterial, natural products and tissue engineering applications. Furthermore, he has conducted few pre-clinical safety and efficacy studies on cellular and acellular therapies in alleviating metabolic syndrome. Recently he was involved in cellular immunotherapy research too.
