Soumya Paul's research focuses on designing polymer-based materials that release therapeutic gas molecules—such as nitric oxide (NO) and sulfur dioxide (SO2)—in response to triggers like light or pH, for applications in cancer treatment and antibacterial therapy. The work combines polymer chemistry (synthesis and side-chain modification of macromolecules) with biomedical applications including phototherapy, drug delivery, and cell imaging. This is laboratory-based materials science and chemistry research aimed at developing new therapeutic delivery systems rather than clinical research.
