Biography

 Dr. Amit Misra is a Senior Principal Scientist & In Charge in Pharmaceutics department CSIR-Central Drug Research Institute, India. He focus on working on drug delivery systems along lines followed by hundreds of researchers worldwide. He like to think the are different, because they get to work with CSIR-CDRI compounds in the discovery pipeline and  follow three guiding principles: Any(reasonable) amount of drug can be delivered to any (reasonably distinct) tissue or cell site, within any (reasonable) time window—the ‘why’ is more interesting than the ‘how’ of drug delivery. Drug delivery is not the end of the problem—the fun starts after drug delivery is achieved. Delivery systems proposed by us should be industrially scalable; dirt cheap (not merely cost-effective); and relevant to diseases of socio-economically challenged people.
