Sabyasachi Banerjee is an ANRF PhD Scholar and Prime Minister’s Fellow at BITS Pilani, focusing on synthetic biology for agricultural waste valorization. A bio-entrepreneurial innovator, he won the Smart India Hackathon Grand Prize , securing a ₹1.2 million commercialization grant for a novel knee orthosis. His work bridges the lab-to-market gap, from engineering high-throughput assays that reduced research time by 87.5% at DAE-CEBS to advising Imperial College London’s iGEM team on open-access biomanufacturing frameworks. Sabyasachi is dedicated to translating complex bioengineering into scalable, inclusive, and market-ready technologies.
