About

Pranav Joshi is a leading researcher in biomaterials and tissue engineering, with a focus on developing advanced platforms for drug screening and regenerative medicine. His most-cited work, "Biocompatible Hydrogels for Microarray Cell Printing and Encapsulation" (2015, 36 citations), addresses a critical bottleneck in pharmaceutical development: the inefficiency of traditional 2D cell-based drug screening. By engineering biocompatible hydrogels that enable precise 3D cell printing and encapsulation, Joshi has pioneered methods to create more physiologically relevant microenvironments for high-throughput screening. This innovation reduces the time and cost of identifying lead compounds while improving predictive accuracy. His contributions bridge materials science and cell biology, offering scalable tools for personalized medicine and toxicity testing. Beyond his seminal paper, Joshi’s research continues to explore hydrogel formulations that mimic native extracellular matrices, with applications in wound healing and organ-on-a-chip systems. His work has been recognized for its translational potential, earning him collaborations with biomedical startups and academic institutions. With a growing citation footprint, Joshi is establishing himself as a key figure in the next generation of biofabrication and drug discovery technologies.
