Dr. Kshreeraja S Satish is a member of the Department of Pharmacy Practice and stands out as a dedicated scholar and researcher with a passion for advancing healtchcare research.

Her research interests encompass translational oncology, molecular biology, bioinformatics, and evidence synthesis. She works on a diverse range of research methodologies, including omics-based data analysis, hospital- and clinic-based observational studies, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, pharmacoepidemiology, pharmacovigilance, and outcomes research. Her research focuses on biomarker discovery, treatment response prediction, and the identification of therapeutic targets. This broad spectrum of interests reflects a commitment to addressing contemporary challenges with the aim of bridging the gap between bench and bedside by integrating computational, clinical, and evidence-based approaches.

She teaches undergraduate and postgraduate pharmacy courses, including Clinical Toxicology, Pharmacovigilance, Pharmacotherapeutics, Clinical Research, Hospital Pharmacy, Pharmacy Practice, and related biomedical sciences. She is committed to promoting research-driven learning and fostering critical thinking among students through the integration of clinical and translational research methodologies.

Her research has been has been presented at international scientific conferences, including the ESMO Targeted Anticancer Therapies Congress for which she also received a Merit Travel Grant. Her current work focuses on identifying clinically relevant biomarkers and therapeutic targets in cancer using integrative bioinformatics approaches, alongside conducting systematic reviews and evidence synthesis to support informed clinical decision-making and advance pharmacy practice.
