Biography:
Amartya Sanyal obtained his Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry (Hons) from the University of Calcutta and his M.Sc. in Analytical Chemistry, where he was awarded the Gold Medal. In 2023, he joined Ariel University as a Ph.D. student under the supervision of Prof. Gary Gellerman. His research centers on the design and synthesis of near-infrared cyanine dyes incorporating heavy atoms to enhance reactive oxygen species generation. His work explores their application in photodynamic and sonodynamic therapy, mechanistic evaluation of ROS generation under photo and ultrasound activation, development of targeted dye–antibody conjugates, and antibacterial therapeutic strategies for advanced theranostic applications.
Title : Rational optimization of antibody–cyanine bioconjugates for targeted theranostic drug delivery and photo/sono activation
