Dr. U. Vijayalakshmi has authored 64 research publications in Scopus indexed international journals. She has received funding from Department of Science and Technology and Department of Atomic Energy. Her Biomaterials research group in Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT), Vellore is currently working on the sol-gel synthesis of various nano ceramics and their coating on metallic implants using various coating techniques such as EPD, spin coating, electrolytic coating. Various ceramics and their composites made of silica, titania and zirconia have been synthesised and the electrochemical corrosion resistance behavior of the coatings evaluated in simulated body fluid solution (SBF). An electrospun nanofibrous MAT was developed by electrospinning techniques and it’s in vitro and in vivo study evaluated by her research students.
