Hyderabad: Dr G. Bhanuprakash Reddy is the first scientist from the National Institute of Nutrition (NIN) to be named as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry for his research contribution in the area of nutritional biochemistry.
Dr Reddy has carried out pioneering work on protein glycation and hyperglycemia where novel molecules were used in combating diabetic complications. His research has provided new insight into the structure, function, and expression of small heat shock proteins under hyperglycemic conditions and their modulation in nutritional factors. His research also revealed the role of micronutrients in the development of diabetic complications. The research on age-related diseases and their nutritional composition was published in more than 170 publications.
Dr Reddy completed his PhD in Biochemistry at Osmania University and doctoral training at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangaluru.
