About Sushil Kumar Singh

Presently, working as Assistant Professor (Guest) with Dr. Ambedkar Institute of Technology for Handicapped, Kanpur, a UP State Govt. sponsored Institute since October, 2020. Prior to joining AITH, Kanpur I had worked with SR Institute of Management & Technology, Lucknow, on the same position. Along with this I have also been working as Consultant Scientist for a startup named “Lifevision Maser Private Limited” from Aug, 2018 till Nov, 2020. Prior to joining LVM, I worked at SS Medical Systems India Pvt. Ltd as Sr. Research Associate, my role in the organization was to carry out the R&D work for the company’s premier product “Optimaser” i.e Development and Up-gradation of Microwave based Disinfection and Sterilization System. The R&D facility of the organization was run in collaboration at Centre of Innovation and Translational Research CSIR: Indian Institute of Toxicology Research, Lucknow, under the guidance of Scientists from there only. I had also worked with Birla Institute of Technology and Sciences - Pilani Hyderabad Campus (BPHC) on a project which focused on: Textile Industry Waste Water Treatment. At the same time I also assisted my colleagues on the development of Biofuels from Algae, Point of Care Devices for UTI assessment, Glucose Level Detector, Hemoglobin Detector and others. I had joined BPHC on Aditya Birla Group funded project on Waste Water and Effluent treatment of industrial effluent to bring down COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) levels to permitted discharge levels. The COD was brought down to permitted levels by isolating bacterial strains those were capable of reducing the COD levels in waste water and were optimized to reduce COD levels at lab scale. I have also worked on cyanobacteria for production of lipids that can be used as a Biofuel after Trans-esterification. I had also worked on a project which focused on Antibiotic resistivity and tried study the degrading potentials of Pleurotus florida, an edible fungus on the antibiotic Ciprofloxacin as it is one of the widely prescribed medicine round the globe. This project was undertaken as there is rise in AMR and the world needs to focus on the methods to stop the rise of AMR as rampant use of antibiotics cannot be stopped. Before Joining BPHC, I had also worked with an International Publishing Company which is plus point for my Research career as working there gave me knowledge how to write good research papers and perform good research.
