Dr. Lissy Krishnan completed her PhD in Biochemistry from Sree Chitra Thirunal Institute of Medical Sciences and Technology (SCTIMST), Trivandrum and did her Post-Doctoral Fellowship at University of Minnesota in Platelet Biology. She joined SCTIMST in 1980 and superannuated as Senior Grade Scientist G, Department of Applied Biology; continuing for one more year as Emeritus Scientist. With over 40 years of research experience, she joined the Research & Innovation wing of Dr. Moopen’s Medical College as its Director for Biological Research & Innovation.

During her career, she has successfully developed and evaluated 6 bio-therapuetics –

Her research expertise also includes Adult Stem Cell-based Tissue Engineering & Regenerative medicine. She has developed fibrin-based, cell-specific extra cellular matrix composition for differentiation of circulating adult stem cells for regenerative therapy (Endothelial cell, Smooth muscle cells, Neurons & Keratinocytes). Her works also included development of hybrid scaffold using biodegradable polymer and biomimetic fibrin composite for small diameter vascular grafts and tissue engineered skin substitutes. Her In vivo animal model preclinical evaluations include Burn & Diabetic animal wound model for skin substitutes, Spinal cord injury model for fibrin aided neural progenitor transplantation, Myocardial infarction model for cardiac progenitor transplantation, Rabbit knee joint inflammation model for the anti-inflammatory function of HSA-Curcumin and Lung cancer (xenograft) model in SCID mice for anticancer property of Curcumin-HSA.
