Mahalakshmi S.

I recently completed my B. Tech in Bioengineering from SASTRA Deemed University. I’m deeply passionate about regenerative medicine, especially tissue engineering, and my academic journey has been centered around exploring innovative bone and nerve regeneration methods. I’ve worked on projects involving incorporating copper and zinc metal-organic frameworks into hydroxyapatite-based scaffolds and ceramic pastes, aiming to enhance bioactivity for bone graft applications. I also gained hands-on experience in 3D printing, electrospinning, and mammalian cell culture, and interned at IIT Madras, where I focused on the fabrication of alginate microfibers using wet spinning for spinal cord regeneration.

Though I haven’t taught professionally, I’ve always enjoyed helping my friends and younger siblings understand complex topics by breaking them down in a way that makes sense to them. I believe I have the patience and clarity needed to make learning engaging and effective. I’m confident that I can guide students through challenging concepts by creating a supportive and approachable learning environment.
