About MicroVeda
Centre of Biotechnology
Where Microbial Science Meets Sustainable Innovation.
Who We Are
Microवेदा is a research-driven biotechnology laboratory dedicated to harnessing microbial, algal, and fungal systems for sustainable environmental and industrial solutions.
Led by Professor Shanthy Sundaram, the lab integrates fundamental science with translational innovation in areas including bioremediation, green nanotechnology, soil health enhancement, extremophiles, and waste-to-wealth technologies.
Rooted in scientific rigor and inspired by the philosophy of “वेदा” (knowledge), Microवेदा aims to advance eco-friendly biotechnology that addresses global environmental challenges while training the next generation of scientific leaders.
Our Vision
Microवेदा envisions becoming a center of excellence in sustainable biotechnology, pioneering innovative microbial and algal solutions for environmental restoration, resource optimization, and ecological resilience.
We strive to bridge fundamental biological research with translational applications that address global challenges such as pollution, soil degradation, climate stress, and waste management.
Through scientific rigor, interdisciplinary collaboration, and responsible innovation, Microवेदा aims to contribute meaningfully to a greener, healthier, and more sustainable future.
