Research Interests:

Satya P. Singh's research interests revolve around the study of various microorganisms that thrive in extreme environments such as halophilic/haloalkaliphilic bacteria, actinobacteria, archaea, and hyperthermophilic bacteria. He has a particular focus on understanding the diversity, phylogeny, and biocatalytic potential of these microorganisms. Singh's research also includes exploring the structure and function relationship of hyperthermophilic bacteria through protein engineering. He has worked on developing recombinant enzymes from haloalkaliphilic bacteria and has extensively researched the metagenomics of extreme environments. Additionally, Singh has also conducted studies on the metabolic regulation of Gram-positive bacteria.
