Mr. Akash Mourya | Health and Medicine Advances | Best Researcher Award

PhD Scholar | National Institutes of Pharmaceutical Education and Research | India

Mr. Akash Mourya is a promising young pharmacologist specializing in pharmacology and toxicology, with a strong research focus on liver pathophysiology, hepatoprotective drug discovery, and molecular mechanisms underlying hepatic and pulmonary disorders. His ongoing Ph.D. work at NIPER Mohali builds on extensive preclinical and translational research conducted at the Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences (ILBS), New Delhi, where he has developed expertise in animal models of liver diseases, hemodynamic studies, and hepatic cell culture systems. His research contributions have advanced understanding of non-alcoholic and alcoholic fatty liver diseases, hepatopulmonary and porto-pulmonary hypertension, and liver regeneration mechanisms. He has co-authored seven peer-reviewed publications in high-impact journals, including Journal of Hepatology, JHEP Reports, American Journal of Physiology–Gastrointestinal and Liver Physiology, npj Gut and Liver, ACS Omega, and Life Sciences. His work has collectively received 31 citations, 7 Documents, with an h-index of 3, reflecting growing recognition within the biomedical research community. In addition to journal articles, Mr. Akash Mourya has contributed two book chapters published by Springer Nature (2024) and Academic Press (2025), covering topics such as oxidative stress and pharmacological interventions in liver disease, and PPARγ signaling in diabetes. His research abstracts have been presented at prestigious international conferences, including the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) and the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL). His work integrates pharmacological innovation, molecular biology, and experimental therapeutics, with emphasis on Ayurvedic formulations, CB2 receptor agonists, and novel siRNA nanoparticle delivery systems. Mr. Akash Mourya’s ongoing efforts contribute to translational R&D for liver protection and regeneration, aligning with India’s growing emphasis on integrative pharmacology and precision medicine.
