We are pleased to announce that Dr. Ajeet Kaushik has been appointed Associate Section Editor-in-Chief for the section "Bioelectronics" of Electronics (ISSN 2079-9292). His term started in January 2020.

Ajeet Kaushik, M.Sc., Ph.D., Fellow-Indian Chemical Society I, as an assistant professor of chemistry at Flrida Polytechnic University, is exploring nanotechnology, material science, thin films, miniaturized sensors, electrochemistry, electrochemical biosensors, nanomedicine, drug delivery to CNS, and biomedical engineering for health wellness. 

Dr. Kaushik received his Ph.D. on chemistry and nano-enabled biosensors in collaboration with National Physical Laboratory and Jamia Milia Islamia, New Delhi, India. Prior to moving to Polytech, he worked as an Assistant Professor to explore “magnetic nanomedicine along with drug delivery to the brain for CND disease management and miniaturized electrochemical sensing systems for personalized health wellness” at the Center of Personalized Nanomedicine, Institute of NeuroImmune Pharmacology, Department of Immunology and Nano-Medicine, Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine, Florida International University (FIU), Miami USA. He is the recipient of various reputed awards for his service in the area of nano-biotechnology in healthcare. His excellent research credentials are reflected in his four edited books, over 100 international research peer-reviewed publications, and three patents in the area of nanomedicine and smart biosensors for personalized healthcare.

In the course of his research, Dr. Kaushik has been engaged in the design and development of various electro-active nanostructures for electrochemical biosensor and nanomedicine for healthcare. His research interests include nano-biotechnology, analytical systems, design and development of nanostructures, nanocarriers for drug delivery, nanotherapeutics for CNS diseases, on-demand site-specific release of therapeutic agents, exploring personalized nanomedicines, biosensors, point-of-care sensing devices, and related areas of health care monitoring.

We would like to warmly welcome Dr. Ajeet Kaushik as Associate Section Editor-in-Chief and look forward to developing the Section "Bioelectronics" under his leadership.
