Ms. Priyanka Garg | Health and Medicine | Best Researcher Award

Assistant Professor, Lovely Professional University, India

Ms. Priyanka Garg is currently serving as an Assistant Professor at the School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Lovely Professional University (LPU), Punjab, India, where she contributes actively to academic instruction, clinical research, and student mentorship. She holds an M.Pharm in Pharmacy Practice (2022) and a B.Pharm (2020), both from Lovely Professional University, with specialization in pharmacotherapy, pharmacovigilance, and patient-centered care. Her primary research interests encompass pharmacogenomics, clinical pharmacology, women’s health, chronic disease management, and the role of gut microbiota in metabolic disorders, with emerging work focusing on personalized medicine for PCOS and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. Professionally, she has served at LPU since January 2023 and previously trained at Shiva Biogenetic Pharmaceuticals Pvt. Ltd. and Doaba Hospital Pvt. Ltd., where she gained practical expertise in manufacturing, IPQC, patient monitoring, and clinical data analysis. Her key contributions include two granted copyrights—“Laboratory and Clinical Result for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome” (2024) and “Clinical Findings for Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome” (2025)—and several impactful presentations at national and international conferences such as SHE-SCIENCE 2025 and the International Conference of Pharmacy series. She has published indexed research in reputed journals including Obesity Medicine and Human Gene. Her scholarly influence is reflected through her author metrics: 3 documents, 25 citations and an h-index of 2. Among her awards and honors, she was recognized for her publication on Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Quality of Life (2022) and received accolades for her leadership roles as Faculty Coordinator and Organizing Committee Member for major scientific events at LPU. Additionally, she serves as a Reviewer for the Population Medicine Journal and engages in academic outreach, environmental awareness, and student development programs. Through her interdisciplinary research and commitment to education, Ms. Priyanka Garg aims to advance pharmacogenomics-based therapeutic strategies and promote evidence-driven healthcare innovation that bridges scientific discovery with societal impact.
