Dr. Dinesh Bhatia pursued his PhD in Biomechanics and Rehabilitation Engineering from MNNIT, Allahabad, India in 2010 with Bachelor’s (2002) and Master’s degree (2004) in Biomedical Engineering from Mumbai University. He completed his MBA (Dual Specialization) from IMT Ghaziabad in 2007. He is currently working as Associate Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering, North Eastern Hill University (NEHU), Shillong, Meghalaya, India since August 2013. Previously, he was employed as an Assistant Professor (Sr. Grade) at the Department of Biomedical Engineering,  Deenbandhu  Chhotu  Ram  University  of   Science  and  Technology,  Murthal (Sonepat), Haryana (State Government University), India from 2006 to 2013. He was selected for the “Young Scientist Award (BOYSCAST)” in (2011-12) by Government of India to pursue research in osteoarthritis (OA) for one year at Adaptive Neural Systems Laboratory, Biomedical Engineering Department, Florida International University, Miami, Florida, USA where he was leading a multidisciplinary team of researchers.  He is also the recipient of “INAE fellowship award” in 2011 by Indian National Academy of Engineering. He was selected as one of the twelve young Biomedical scientists by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), Govt. of India to pursue research fellowship (2014-15) in the field of sensory prosthetics at University of Glasgow, Scotland, UK. He has attended Biomechanics and Human Gait training at Munich, Germany in March, 2017 and training of use of Neuromodulation equipments for disabled children at Ivanovo, Russia in September, 2017. He delivered an Invited Talk on Gait and Osteoarthritis in Kaula Lampur, Malaysia in August, 2018. He has several research papers in reputed journals, conference, seminars and symposia with teaching and research experience of more than twenty (20) years. He is invited panel member of many professional bodies, journals, editorial boards, committees, government bodies, societies and forums. He has worked on several funded projects from Government of India on physically challenged, disabled and paralyzed persons and few projects are still ongoing. He has authored/published more than 400+ articles, 15 books and 35 books chapters till date and supervised several UG, PG and doctoral students. He has several patents and copyrights to his name. His research focuses on understanding muscle mechanics, joint kinematics and dynamics involved in performing locomotion and routine tasks and undermining it effects during an injury or disease. His areas of interest are medical instrumentation, biomechanics and rehabilitation engineering, medical informatics, signal and image processing, marketing and international business, entrepreneurship and sustainable business models. Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=MaFJHlAAAAAJ&hl=en&oi=ao and Webpage: https://nehu.ac.in/faculty/display/342/Dr-Dinesh-Bhatia
