Sanjeeva Srivastava's Biography



Sanjeeva Srivastava, Associate Professor, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay

Dr. Sanjeeva Srivastava is Associate Professor and Group Leader of Proteomics Laboratory at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay India, a guest professor at the Central South University, China and a Visiting Scientist at the Biodesign Institute, Arizona. He obtained his Ph.D. from the University of Alberta and post-doc from the Harvard Medical School in the area of proteomics, and has specialized expertise in applications of data enabled sciences in global health, developing country and resource limited settings. Dr. Srivastava is recipient of several awards including the National Young Scientist Award (Canada), Young Scientist Awards (India) and Apple Research Technology Support Award (UK). The research focus of his group centers on using high-throughput proteomics for the biomarker discovery in Gliomas and infectious diseases. His group is actively working in clinical oncology oriented research focusing on two of the most commonly occurring brain cancers, viz. Glioma and Meningioma. The research focuses on novel biomarker identification using high-throughput proteomics techniques across a wide variety of platforms, including gel-based proteomics, mass spectrometry and protein microarrays. Quantitative profiling to understand proteome alterations along with comprehensive autoantibody profiling of serum and CSF samples in glioma and meningioma have been accomplished. His group also focuses on various neglected tropical diseases malaria, Dengue etc. Additionally, multi-dimensional Omics data are employed for the in silico studies and models. He collaborates actively both across India and internationally to advance this knowledge frontier for the benefit of global health. His vision is to cultivate an ecosystem for clinical proteomics research in India and enable disruptive innovation for biotechnology and global life sciences R&D. To address these grand challenges his vision on data-enabled life sciences (Nature, 2013, 498, 170), biobanking (Nature Reviews Clinical Oncology, 2013, 10, 434-438), innovative ways of funding (EMBO Rep. 2015, 16, 267-71) and e-learning resources for researchers (Nature, 2013, 501, 316) has been appreciated worldwide. He has many publications in national and international journals to his credit.
Dr. Srivastava serves on executive committee of Proteomics Society, India (PSI) and he is an active member of HUPO and US-HUPO since 2008. He was invited to give a talk in HUPO-2013 conference in Yokohama and in HUPO-2014 in Spain he was invited as panelist of Human Infectious Diseases (HID)-HPP initiative, to chair a session and serve on judging panel of poster presentations. Dr. Srivastava had organized 6th Annual Meeting of PSI, “Proteomics from Discovery to Function” and International Conference from Dec 6th to 11th 2014 in IIT Bombay, Mumbai. This event witnessed many presidents and ex-presidents of HUPO for the first time in India. Dr. Srivastava is very actively contributing in Editorial capacity and currently he is editor for three special issues including a “Proteomics in India” special issue in Journal of Proteomics, “Proteomics research in India” in Nature India and “Protein Arrays” in Proteomics. He is also associate editor for several international journals. His group has developed E-learning resources such as Virtual Proteomics Laboratory and Open Source Courseware Animations Repository as a community resource. His Proteomics video lectures (40 hours) developed by National Program on Technology Enhanced Learning (NPTEL) is freely accessible for the community. These e-learning resources have been included as tutorial for the International Proteomics Tutorial Programme. Dr. Srivastava’s teaching efforts has provided him Excellence in Teaching Award in IIT Bombay, which is one of the coveted distinctions of this very prestigious institute. Dr. Srivastava envisions designing novel-framework by linking proteomics and big data for the disruptive innovation by collective intelligence and acti
