He has also been a Visiting Professor at the University of California, San Diego, conducting research on wearable biosensors, and an Entrepreneurial Lead under the US National Science Foundation’s I-Corps™ program, gaining expertise in medical innovation and technology commercialization. A researcher and technologist, Dr. Pandya has published 60+ research articles, authored 5 books & 12+ book chapters, and holds 5 granted patents. His work has secured national and international funding to advance biomedical and forensic diagnostic technologies. He has been honored with prestigious awards, including the SERB-International Research Experience Award, the SERB Young Scientist Award, and the IAR Research Excellence Award. Dr. Pandya has developed cutting-edge biosensing platforms for rapid AMR detection, cardiovascular disease diagnostics, plant pathogen identification, and forensic body fluid analysis. With global research collaborations spanning France, the USA, and India, Dr. Pandya continues to drive innovation in biosensor technology, translating scientific discoveries into real-world applications for precision diagnostics and personalized healthcare. Prof. Vijai Singh is currently serving as Head of the Department of Biosciences, School of Science and Dean (Research & Innovation) at Indrashil University, Rajpur, Mehsana, India. Prior to this, he held the position of Associate Professor in the same department at Indrashil University. He has also served as Assistant Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences and Biotechnology at the Institute of Advanced Research, Gandhinagar, and in the Department of Biotechnology at the Invertis University, Bareilly, India. Earlier of his career, Prof. Singh worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Synthetic Biology Group at the Institute of Systems and Synthetic Biology, Paris, France and at the School of Energy & Chemical Engineering at the Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology, Ulsan, South Korea. He earned his Ph.D. in Biotechnology in 2009 from the ICAR-National Bureau of Fish Genetic Resources, Uttar Pradesh Technical University, Lucknow, India. His doctoral research focused on the development of molecular and immunoassays for the diagnosis of Aeromonas hydrophila. Prof. Singh’s research interests lies in the design and construction of novel biosynthetic pathways for production of medically and industrially important biomolecules. His laboratory is also actively engaged in developing CRISPR-Cas systems for gene knock out, knock in, gene regulation and diagnostic. With over 15 years of research and teaching experience, his areas of expertise include synthetic biology, metabolic engineering, bioinformatics, microbiology, and industrial microbiology. He has an extensive academic record, with over 110 articles, 89 book chapters, 26 books and 3 patents to his credits. Prof. Singh has received number of prestigious awards, including the Bioclues Innovation, Research and Development Award (2023) from the BIOCLUES Society, the Vice Chancellor's Best Research Award (2023) from Indrashil University, and the Agathiyar Chemical Biology Award (2023) from the Society of Chemical and Synthetic Biology. At Indrashil University, he currently serves as chairman of the Board of Study, and is a member of the Academic Council of Indrashil University. He also holds the position of the Member Secretary of the Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBSC) at the university. Dr. Singh is actively involved in national and international scientific advisory roles.
