Sengupta resides in Gurgaon in Haryana.[5]
Professional profile
Sengupta's research focus is on the changes in the signaling pathways during cancer development and he has carried out studies on the tumour suppressor genes and oncogenes.[2] During his post-doctoral days at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), he undertook a project on NIH grant to study the Determination of regulatory mechanisms for BLM helicase.[6] His studies have been documented by way of a number of articles[7][note 1] and ResearchGate, an online repository of scientific articles has listed 50 of them.[8] Besides, he has contributed chapters to books published by others.[9] He has also undertaken several projects on behalf of the government agencies such as the Department of Science and Technology, the Department of Biotechnology and the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research as the principal investigator[3] and is associated with the Department of Biotechnology as a member of its Task force on Cancer Biology, the expert committee on Promotion and Popularization of Biotechnology and the Expert Committee for Twinning RD program for North Eastern Region.[10]
Awards and honors
Sengupta received the Best Thesis Award for his doctoral thesis from the Indian Institute of Science in 1991.[2] The Department of Biotechnology (DBT) of the Government of India awarded him the National Bioscience Award for Career Development, one of the highest Indian science awards in 2011.[11] The National Academy of Sciences, India elected him as a fellow in 2012[12] and he became an elected fellow of the Indian Academy of Sciences and the Indian National Science Academy in 2017.[13] He is also a member of the Guha Research Conference.[4]
