With over two decades of experience in higher education and pharmaceutical research, he is widely recognized for his contributions to formulation science, phytopharmacology, toxicological studies, and drug delivery systems.
Dr. Kundu received his doctoral degree from Niigata University, Japan, under the prestigious Monbukagakusho (MEXT) Scholarship, where he conducted pioneering work on mucosal pathology and tissue regeneration. His research continues to bridge basic pharmaceutical science with applied clinical relevance, particularly in the fields of in silico drug modeling and herbal medicine evaluation.
As a mentor, Professor Kundu is known for his collaborative and hands-on approach. He has supervised more than 130 undergraduate and postgraduate research projects, and currently leads multiple PhD dissertations focusing on computational pharmacology, sustained-release drug formulations, and the therapeutic potential of Bangladeshi medicinal plants. His research group often blends bench science with computer-aided design, offering students exposure to both laboratory and digital pharmacology.
Beyond the lab, Dr. Kundu is actively involved in academic nurturing. He organizes student-led journal clubs, thesis writing workshops, and invites alumni and industry professionals for career talks, bridging academic learning with professional growth. He is especially passionate about cultivating independent thinking and research integrity among his students, often spending extra hours refining their scientific writing and guiding their publication efforts.
Professor Kundu, as a Grade-I faculty member at Jahangirnagar University, has held several pivotal administrative roles, including Department Chair, Provost of MMH Hall & SSB Hall, BMRC Council Member and Senate Member of Jahangirnagar University. He also served as a Vice President of the Bangladesh Pharmacy Students’ Association (BPSA).
During the COVID-19 pandemic (2020–2021), he led the university’s health response as Head of the COVID-19 Monitoring and Prevention Cell, overseeing safety protocols and surveillance efforts. His commitment to both academic excellence and institutional development makes him a cornerstone of the university’s pharmaceutical sciences community.

RESEARCH INTEREST
Professor Sukalyan Kumar Kundu’s research agenda is strategically positioned at the intersection of formulation science, phytomedicine, toxicology, and computational pharmacology, addressing real-world therapeutic challenges through both laboratory innovation and digital modeling. His core areas of interest include:
Advanced Drug Delivery Systems: Development of sustained-release, matrix-based, and hydrogel formulations for enhanced pharmacokinetics and patient-centric dosing strategies.
Phytotherapeutics & Herbal Drug Validation: Scientific standardization and mechanistic evaluation of medicinal plants used in traditional South Asian medicine—focusing on their antioxidant, hepatoprotective, cytotoxic, and antidiabetic potentials.
In Silico Pharmacology & Molecular Docking: Structure-based drug design and virtual screening to predict binding affinity, efficacy, and chronic toxicity of pharmaceutical agents—including combination therapies, receptor-specific ligands, and cardioprotective agents.
Toxicological and Safety Assessment: Preclinical evaluation of drug safety profiles and protective roles of natural compounds against pesticide- and chemical-induced organ toxicities, with emphasis on liver and hematological biomarkers.
Formulation Innovation: Development of robust HPLC, UV-spectroscopy, and analytical validationmethods for novel dosage forms, aligning with regulatory compliance in low- and middle-income markets.
His multidisciplinary approach integrates wet-lab pharmacognosy, in vivo studies, and AI-assisted computational methods, aiming to contribute to affordable, scalable, and globally relevant pharmaceutical solutions—particularly for emerging economies.
