About Dr. Tripathi:

Prof. Timir Tripathi is a Professor of Molecular Biology in the Department of Zoology, School of Life Sciences, North-Eastern Hill University (NEHU), Shillong. Earlier, he served as the Regional Director of Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), Kohima, Nagaland (2022-2023), where he contributed significantly to educational leadership, governance, and management. Before assuming this administrative position, he was Senior Assistant Professor and Principal Investigator at the Department of Biochemistry, NEHU, Shillong (2009-2022). He holds a Ph.D. from Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, while working at the Central Drug Research Institute, Lucknow and post-graduation. in Biotechnology from University of Mysore, Mysuru. He was a visiting faculty at ICGEB, New Delhi, India, and Khon Kaen University, Thailand. 
Prof. Tripathi’s research interests lie in the field of protein-substrate interaction and dynamics and understanding the roles of non-catalytic domains in regulating the catalytic activity of proteins. His primary focus is studying the conformational dynamics, interaction, and stabilization of the complexes formed by intrinsically disordered neuropathological protein aggregates, their properties of liquid-liquid phase separation, interaction, and roles in nucleocytoplasmic transport in neurodegenerative diseases. In addition, he is interested in analyzing the structural and functional characteristics of drug target proteins from the helminth liver fluke parasite Fasciola gigantica to identify new therapeutic strategies.
He has received several awards, including Prof. B.K. Bachhawat Memorial Young Scientist Lecture Award (2020) by the National Academy of Sciences, India, ISCB-Young Scientist Award (2019), ICMR-Shakuntala Amir Chand Prize (2018), BRSI-Malviya Memorial Award (2017), DST-Fasttrack Young Scientist Award (2012), DBT-Overseas Associateship Award (2012), Dr. D.M. Bose Award (2008), etc. He is an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences, India, the Royal Society of Chemistry, and the Royal Society of Biology, UK. He has handled several research grants as a principal investigator from various national and international funding agencies, including DST-Russian Foundation for Basic Research, UGC-Israel Science Foundation, DBT, SERB, DHR, and ICMR. He has published over 100 research papers, reviews, commentaries, viewpoints, outlooks, and editorial articles in international journals and published several book chapters. He has edited five books and authored two textbooks for undergraduate and postgraduate students. Currently, he serves as the editor of the International Journal of Biological Macromolecules and is the editorial board member of Scientific Reports and Acta Tropica
