WELCOME TO MY WORLD

Hi, I’m Suresh Babu Naidu

My research has focused on the optimization and development of scientific methods for the rapid diagnosis of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), as well as the conduct of numerous studies to gain a better understanding of the applications of silver nanoparticles in biomedical applications, since the beginning of career. My current research focuses on increasing the reliability of current nanoparticle applications for human health to better manage antimicrobial resistance (AMR). I'm extremely enthusiastic about the teaching and training of students, intern scientists, and technologists, among other things.
