Dr Keshav Raj Paudel is a pharmacologist and biomedical researcher specialising in inflammation biology, respiratory diseases, and translational pharmacology, including complementary and alternative medicines. His research integrates molecular pharmacology, immunology, and experimental therapeutics to identify novel therapeutic candidates such as small molecules, phytoceuticals, medicinal plant extract and their single compounds (pure and nanoformulation) and develop pharmacological interventions for inflammatory diseases, particularly chronic airway disorders.
Dr Paudel is currently a Senior Postdoctoral Fellow at the NICM Health Research Institute and the School of Science at Western Sydney University, Australia, where he is a co-Lead of the Respiratory and Pharmaceutical Research Team along with Professor Kamal Dua, contributing to research on respiratory pharmacology, natural product therapeutics, and inflammatory disease mechanisms.
