Dr. Murugan Ramalingam is Professor at the Centre for Stem
Cell Research (a unit of the Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative
Medicine-Bengaluru), Christian Medical College Campus, India. Concurrently he
is Adjunct Professor at the Tohoku University, Japan. Prior to joining the
CSCR, he was Associate Professor of Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering at the Institut
National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale, Faculté de Chirurgie Dentaire, Université de Strasbourg,
France. He has worked at the WPI Advanced Institute for Materials Research,
Japan, as an Assistant Professor. He has also worked at the National Institute
of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH),
under the U.S. National Academies Associateship program. He received his Ph.D.
in Biomaterials from the University of Madras. He has also undergone training
in Ethical and Policy issues on Stem Cells from Harvard University, USA, and in
Operations Management from the University of Illinois-Chicago. His current
research interests are focused on the development of multiphase biomedical
materials, through conventional to nanotechnology to biomimetic approaches,
microfabrication, cell patterning, stem cell differentiation, tissue
engineering and drug delivery. He is the
author of over 190 publications, including peer-reviewed journal papers,
conference proceedings, book chapters, authored books, edited books, and
patents relevant to biomaterials, stem cells, and tissue engineering. His
current h-index is 23 with over 4130 citations. He has organized several
international conferences and chaired Biomaterials, Nanobiotechnology, Stem
Cells and Tissue Engineering sessions. He also serves as a board member of
several international scientific and research committees in various public and
private bodies and grant reviewer of various
international funding agencies. He serves on the editorial boards of multiple biomaterials
and tissue engineering-related journals, including Journal of Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering, Journal of Bionanoscience and American
Journal of Stem Cell Research. He is a recipient of several prestigious
fellowships and awards, including CSIR Fellowship (India), SMF Fellowship
(Singapore), NRC National Academies Fellowship (USA), Nationale Professeur des
Universités (France), Fellow of Institute of Nanotechnology (UK) and Fellow of
Royal Society of Chemistry (UK).
