Rate My Professor S Chandrasekhar

S. Chandirasekar earned his Ph.D. in Polymer Science from the University of Madras in 2015, with the thesis 'Bio-surfactant and bio-polymers templated fluorescent noble metal nanoclusters and nanoparticles for bioimaging and sensing applications,' supervised by Prof. N. Rajendiran. He also holds an M.Sc. in Polymer Science and a B.Sc. in Chemistry from the University of Madras and C. Kandaswamy Naidu College for Men, Chennai, respectively. His research specializations encompass atomically precise luminescent metal nanoclusters and biopolymeric micellar systems for drug delivery applications, including biosurfactant-templated fluorescent noble metal nanoclusters for in vitro and in vivo bioimaging and fluorometric sensing. Key publications include 'Facile Synthesis of Bile Salt Encapsulated Gold Nanoparticles and Its Use in Colorimetric Detection of DNA' (J. Phys. Chem. C, 2011), 'Sodium Cholate Templated Blue Light Emitting Ag Subnanoclusters: In Vivo Toxicity and Imaging in Zebrafish Embryos' (ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces, 2015), 'Biosurfactant Templated Quantum Sized Fluorescent Gold Nanoclusters for In Vivo Bioimaging in Zebrafish Embryos' (Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2016), 'A Gold Nanocluster-based Fluorescent Probe for Simultaneous pH and Temperature Sensing and Its Application to Cellular Imaging and Logic Gates' (Nanoscale, 2016), 'Synthesis of Gold nanoclusters-Loaded Lysozyme Nanoparticles for label-free Ratiometric Fluorescent pH Sensing' (J. Mater. Chem. B, 2019), and 'N-Cholyl D-Penicilamine Micelles Templated Red Light-Emitting Silver 2-Nanoclusters: Fluorometric Sensor for S Ions and Bioimaging Application Using Zebrafish model' (Langmuir, 2022).
