Plant and Algal Hydrogels for Drug Delivery and Regenerative Medicine
Woodhead Publishing (Verlag)
978-0-12-821649-1 (ISBN)
Biopolymeric hydrogels have skyrocketed because of their necessity in in vivo applications. They create an environment similar to living tissue, which is both biocompatible and biodegradable. Plant and algal polysaccharides in particular are well-equipped with functional groups that are easily modified for beneficial results.
Tapan Kumar Giri was educated at Jadavpur University (Kolkata, India), where he received pharmacy degrees in B.Pharm, M.Pharm and Ph.D. With 19 years of teaching experience, he was associated with some prestigious institutes of North India. Currently he is working as an Associate Professor in Department of Pharmaceutical Technology, Jadavpur University. His diverse research interests include, drug delivery, biopolymers, hydrogels, micro and nanosized dosage forms. He had supervised around 30 M.Pharm. projects. He has published around 70 research articles in peer reviewed journals and 13 book chapters. He has authored 2 pharmacy books and also edited one (CRC Press). He has served as Guest Editor of Current Chemical Biology Journal, Bentham Science. Two of his research articles published by Elsevier received the distinction of high cited article award. In 2017, he received the best teacher award of Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology. Bijaya Ghosh has been in the profession of teaching for the last 34 years and has taught undergraduate and graduate Pharmacy students in some premier institutions of North and South India. Currently, she is working as a Professor (Pharmaceutics) at NSHM Knowledge Campus-Kolkata Group of Institutions. She received her B.Pharm, M.Pharm and PhD degrees from Jadavpur University in 1983, 1986 and 1994, respectively. Keenly interested in experimenting with new concepts, she has worked in diverse fields like oral sustained release dosage form, transdermal drug delivery, iontophoresis and therapeutic drug monitoring. She has published over forty (40) research papers in peer reviewed International and National Journals. She has authored three pharmacy text books and also co-edited two research books (CRC Press and Elsevier). Equally interested in literature, she has produced a couple of novels and a series of English short stories.
