Research interests
In the literature, we find many works are carried out to fabricate nanomaterials resulting in diverse applications from regenerative medicine to environmentally feasible solutions while using approaches based on nanotechnology principles. However, manufacturing the best material with multifunctionality is still a challenging task, and continuously, we must search for new materials to make our life easy. In this regard, our lab mainly focuses on the problems faced by patients using nanomaterial to restore critical wounds while following tissue engineering and regenerative approaches. Moreover, our interest in developing new and advanced techniques will help us to construct artificial scaffolds that can be used as tissue substitutes. We often fail to understand how the nanomaterial can interact with living cells; consequently, this challenges us to do the latest improvisations to the materials.

General announcement
We welcome the students interested in pursuing a Ph.D. research program in our lab. Furthermore, the scholars who wish to apply for post-doctoral research (e.g., SERB National Post-Doctoral Fellowship, ICSSR Post-Doctoral Fellowship, DST-Nano Mission Post-Doctoral Fellowship, Women Scientist Scheme (WOS), UGC D. S. Kothari Fellowships, IGIDR Post-Doctoral Fellowship, Indian Council of Medical Research SRF/RA and Raman Post-Doctoral Fellowship (IISc) in our lab are advised to contact at faheemnt@uok.edu.in. We also encourage foreign Ph.D. degree holders to contact us for possible candidates for applying to prestigious Ramanujan and Ramalingaswami fellowships at our department.
