Gorachand Dutta
Dr. Gorachand Dutta is an assistant professor at the School of Medical Science and Technology, Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur. He obtained his Ph.D. in biosensors and electrochemistry from Pusan National University, South Korea, where he developed different classes of electrochemical sensors and studied the electrochemical properties of gold, platinum, and palladium-based metal electrodes. He completed postdoctoral fellowships in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, at Michigan State University, USA and the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering, at the University of Bath, UK. His research interests include the design and characterization of portable biosensors, biodevices and sensor interfaces for miniaturized systems, and biomedical applications for point-of-care testing. He has expertise in label-free multichannel electrochemical biosensors, electronically addressable biosensor arrays, aptamer- and DNA-based sensors and surface bio-functionalization.
