Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Sugunadevi Sakkiah's research focuses on the application of computational methods, including molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations, and machine learning, to investigate molecular interactions and predict toxicity and pharmacological effects. Her work has contributed to understanding the binding patterns of ligands to proteins, such as estrogen receptor alpha, and investigating interactions between viral proteins like the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and the ACE2 receptor.

Sakkiah has also explored the use of machine learning models for predicting the cytotoxicity of nanomaterials and liver toxicity, aligning with efforts to promote the design and risk assessment of nanomaterials. Her research interests extend to the analysis of adverse events in drug selection for COVID-19 treatment and the identification of epidemiological traits from viral sequences. She has published 81 papers, with a total of 2,889 citations, and holds an h-index of 29. She has collaborated with researchers at the National Center for Toxicological Research, including Tucker A. Patterson and Wenjing Guo, on multiple publications.
