Sanu Shameer is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biology at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research Thiruvananthapuram (IISER TVM). His research focuses on systems biology approaches to model cellular metabolism in plants and parasites using computational frameworks.
His primary research interests include cellular metabolism, mathematical modeling, plant biology, parasitology, and systems biology. He integrates metabolic models with signaling, regulation, organ development, and resource allocation systems to develop comprehensive whole-organism models. His work spans stomatal physiology in plants, Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM), tomato fruit development, and Trypanosoma metabolism.
Dr. Shameer's publication trends reveal a strong emphasis on computational plant metabolism, particularly in stomatal function (2024), CAM mechanisms (2024), and tomato developmental biology (2020-2022). His parasite metabolism work includes constraint-based modeling for drug target identification (2016) and the TrypanoCyc database (2015), demonstrating methodological expertise in hybrid kinetic-constraint modeling and metabolic flux analysis.
He teaches Systems Biology: Theory (I2B411/BIO4119/BIO6119), Systems Biology: Applications (I2B421), Biochemistry (BIO314/MSB314), Bioimaging and Processing (I2B422), and Systems Biology and Imaging Lab (I2B521). His Simbiosys Lab, accessible at https://sites.google.com/view/simbiosys, focuses on integrating biological processes through computational modeling.
