She also completed her Bachelor's degree (B.Sc.) in Chemistry with University Rank in 2017. Ankitha Menon has received honors from Smt. Smriti Irani, Minister in the Union Cabinet of India for her higher secondary academic performances. She joined as full-time research scholar at Indian Institute of Technology research group in fall 2022. She is currently working on surface modification of MXene and has a general research interest in the field of synthesis of nanomaterial-based composites for electrochemical sensors and environmental remediation. Ajith Mohan Arjun obtained his PhD from National Institute of Technology Calicut, India and his research topic was biofuel cells based on carbon nanostructures.
He worked as postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Biological Sciences and Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology Palakkad in MXene based electrochemical sensors. He was working as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Virginia from 2022 to 2023, where his work was focused on the development of wearable aptamer sensing devices for the detection of cortisol from dermal interstitial fluid, which was an Airforce Research Laboratory funded project. He is currently working as a postdoctoral researcher at Swansea University where his work focuses on the detection of Alzheimer's disease biomarkers from dermal interstitial fluid and blood in collaboration with teams from Imperial College London, University of Glasgow, from United Kingdom and Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology, and National Institutes for Quantum and Radiological Science and Technology in Japan. His research interests are electrochemical biosensors, enzyme fuel cells, and wearable electrochemical sensors which involve the use of nanomaterials.
