Microbial Engineering for Therapeutics
Editat de Mrutyunjay Suar, Namrata Misra, Chandravanu Dashen Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 oct 2022
The book also reviews the different options and methods for engineering microbes, ranging from recombinant DNA technology to designing microbes for targeting specific sites and delivering therapeutics. Further, it discusses genetically engineered microorganisms for smart diagnostics and describes current approaches in microbial gene editing using CRISPR-Cas9-based tools. Lastly, it summarizes the potential applications of human microbiome engineering in improving human health and explores potential strategies for scaling-up the production of engineered microbial strains for commercial purposes, as well as the challenges. Given its scope, this book is a valuable resource for students, researchers, academics and entrepreneurs interested in understanding microbial engineering for the production of commercial products.

Dr Mrutyunjay Suar is the CEO of KIIT Technology Business Incubator (KIIT-TBI) and an entrepreneurial professor with PhD in Molecular Microbiology, and trained at ETH Zurich, Switzerland. He returned to India and established the School of Biotechnology in 2007 under KIIT University in Bhubaneswar & also established KIIT-TBI, promoting deep tech start-up companies. Under his leadership, KIIT-TBI nurtured more than 250 start-up companies in last 10 years and created 4000+ jobs and established Centre of Excellence in incubation in the area of Digital Health, Diagnostics & Precision agriculture, supported by Department of Sc & Tech, Govt of India. He is a passionate mentor and has been deeply involved mentoring deep-tech startup companies and helped them to take them through their journey from ideation to enterprise creation. He is committed to replicate the successful incubation model in other states of East and North East regions of India, for which BIRAC Regional Centre @KIITTBI was established focusing on Bioentrepreneurship in the East and North East states of India. He also founded two companies and has a very active research group in the area of infection biology and nano-biomaterials and filed 4 patents. He also founded two startup companies working in the area of environment and food biotechnology. He has also established a Women Technology Park (WTP) in his village K Nuagaon, Dist: Ganjam and nurturing five small enterprises run by rural women. He has built several international collaborations (Carleton University, Canada; Technoport, Luxembourg & Start Life Centre, Netherland) to promote cross boarder partnership in the area of innovation and incubation.
