S.P. Srinivas

Dr. S.P. Srinivas is a Professor at the Indiana University School of Optometry and a Graduate Faculty member with endorsement to chair PhD committees. His research focuses on corneal endothelium barrier integrity, aqueous humor outflow regulation, and ocular drug delivery pharmacokinetics. He holds a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from Drexel University (1987) and completed postdoctoral training at Stanford University (ocular drug delivery) and UC Berkeley (corneal physiology).

Education:

• Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering, Drexel University
• Master of Science, I.I.T., Madras, India

Research Interests:

• Regulation of corneal endothelium barrier integrity
• Trabecular meshwork cell regulation of aqueous humor outflow
• Pharmacokinetics of topical ophthalmic drugs

Publications span corneal physiology, drug delivery mechanisms, and cellular signaling pathways. His work includes studies on TNF-α effects, actomyosin contraction roles, and adenosine signaling in corneal endothelium.
