Author Information

Sanjeewa KKA has a BSc Honors Degree in Agriculture from the Rajarata University of Sri Lanka, and MSc and a Doctoral Degree in Marine Life Sciences from Jeju National University in South Korea. In 2019, Dr. Sanjeewa began his post-doctoral research in the Marine Bioresource Technology Laboratory of the Department of Marine Life Sciences at the School of Marine Biomedical Science at Jeju National University in South Korea. Following his post-doctoral research, Dr. Sanjeewa joined the Department of Biosystems Technology at the Faculty of Technology at the University of Sri Jayewardenepura as a Senior Lecturer in 2021. Dr. Sanjeewa's research primarily focuses on the bioprospecting of marine organisms to discover novel bioactive secondary metabolites for the development of nutraceuticals, cosmeceuticals, and functional foods. His particular interest lies in investigating the anti-inflammatory mechanisms of natural bioactive compounds for treating fine dust-induced inflammatory responses in humans. Dr. Sanjeewa is a recipient of the Top 2% highly cited researcher recognition (awarded by Elsevier BV and Stanford University) in 2021 and 2022, acknowledging his outstanding contributions to the field of marine life sciences.
