Shiva Bhowmik's research spans enzyme mechanisms in gut bacteria, such as how bacterial enzymes transform steroid hormones and bile salts, and more recent work on engineering bispecific antibodies (proteins designed to bind two different targets) for cancer therapy, including ovarian cancer and acute myeloid leukemia. This suggests a shift from basic microbial biochemistry toward applied biomedical research in cancer immunotherapy.
Publication output was minimal and sporadic in the earlier part of the decade (a single paper in 2020) followed by a marked increase in listed 2026 conference abstracts, indicating a recent shift in activity and focus rather than a steady long-term trend.
