title: Bioanalysis young investigator: Bhagwat Prasad.
abstract: It gives me immense pleasure to nominate Bhagwat Prasad for the Bioanalysis Young Investigator Award 2011. He was my direct student since he joined the National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research in July 2004 until February 2011. I had been his teacher and later his guide during his Masters and PhD programs. Since March 2011 Bhagwat has been affiliated with the Department of Pharmaceutics, University of Washington, Seattle (WA, USA) as a post-doctoral fellow. His research projects include bioanalysis of transporter proteins in human tissues using modern LC-MS platforms and clinical studies for understanding drug-drug interactions. Under my direct supervision Bhagwat completed his MS (Pharm) and PhD. Bhagwat has used modern qualitative and quantitative LC-MS approaches during his research. He has first-hand experience of using multiple mass spectrometers. He has published several excellent research and review papers in journals such as, European Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Trends in Analytical Chemistry, Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis and Drug Discovery Today: Therapeutic Strategies. In a nutshell, Bhagwat Prasad is an outstanding bioanalytical researcher. I am deeply impressed by his drive and determination and, therefore, strongly nominate him for the Bioanalysis Young Investigator Award 2011.
