Ketan Thorat

I am a Graduate Student in Praveen's lab from the batch of GS 2014. For past three years, my work has been focused around making platform technologies to reduce pesticide exposure in farmers. I did my Bachelors in Science from Fergusson College Pune and completed my Masters in Science-Biotechnology with specialization in nanomedicine from Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay). At IIT Bombay I was working on developing lipo-polymeric nanoparticle aerosol for targeted and triggered delivery of drug combinations for the treatment of lung cancer.

Apart from lab, I am really passionate about dance and theater.
