LIST OF SPEAKERS
Prof. Padmanabhan Balaram is an eminent Indian biochemist recognized for his pioneering contributions to peptide chemistry, protein structure, and biomolecular conformational analysis. He is a former Director of the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru, and currently serves as a Chaired Professor at the National Centre for Biological Sciences (NCBS). His research has advanced the understanding of peptide folding, secondary structure formation, and the design of biologically active peptides using structural biology techniques such as NMR spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography, circular dichroism, and infrared spectroscopy. He has authored over 400 research publications and has received numerous honors, including the Padma Bhushan and the TWAS Prize, for his outstanding contributions to biochemistry and structural biology.
