Dr Sharda Yadav
Dr Sharda Yadav received her PhD degree from Griffith University in 2020 under the supervision of Prof Nam-Trung Nguyen. Her research background lies in the development of novel diagnostic technologies for the early detection of diseases. She has extensive experience in cell cultures, use of stretchable membrane, electrochemistry including method developments for novel applications, biochemical, serological and microbiological assays, handling clinical samples, nanoparticle functionalization and manipulation, and immunoassays development. Her research interest includes uncovering the role of biophysical properties associated with the microenvironment of a tumour. She is also interested and involved in the IMCRC project for patch-based glucose detection system manufacturing, especially working on biocompatibility testing of the materials and electrochemical sensing of the devices. Sharda has obtained Master of Science, Medical Laboratory Technology in clinical Biochemistry and Bachelor of Science, Medical Laboratory Technology from Manipal University, India. She was the recipient of GUPRS and GUIPRS from Griffith University for the doctoral degree. She also received the GU publication award and GU-International Student Research Forum travel grant during her PhD. She is registered as a Clinical Biochemist in Nepal Health professional council. She is also a member of Australian Early- and Mid-Career Researcher (EMCR) Forum.

Dr Uditha Roshan
Dr Uditha Roshan received his PhD degree from Griffith University in 2026, under the supervision of Prof. Nam-Trung Nguyen. His PhD focused on the design and development of micro elastofluidic systems for biomedical applications, with particular emphasis on droplet microfluidics. His work integrates microfluidics, flexible materials, and actuation concepts to develop innovative platforms for healthcare and diagnostics. He has extensive experience in microfluidic device design, simulation, and fabrication, as well as experimental characterisation, and currently focuses on advancing emerging technologies in micro elastofluidics. In addition, his expertise includes smart materials, particularly Shape Memory Alloy (SMA)-based actuators, mechatronics, and embedded systems. Prior to his doctoral studies, Uditha served as a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka, where he taught, supervised research, and contributed to curriculum development in mechatronics and mechanical engineering. He obtained both his Master of Philosophy degree and Bachelor of Science (Honours) degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka. He was a recipient of the GUPRS and GUIPRS from Griffith University for his doctoral studies.
