Dr. Kattesh Katti, Curators’ Distinguished Professor and Director of the Institute of Green Nanotechnology and of the University of Missouri Cancer Nanotechnology Platform, has been selected as a Fulbright specialist for 2024.

He is globally credited for inventing a new medical modality referred to as “Nano-Ayurvedic Medicine.” This innovative breakthrough combines nanomedicine with ayurveda, a millennia-old medical practice in India. As a Fulbright specialist, Dr. Katti will lead a six-week research mission at the University of Johannesburg in South Africa. 

Dr. Katti is in good company. Mizzou’s International Programs works with the Fulbright Scholar Program to support educational excellence around the world. Dr. Katti joins at least four other MU faculty members who received Fulbright awards for the next academic year. New recipients will continue to be announced through the end of the semester. 

Congratulations to Dr. Katti – and all Mizzou Fulbright awardees – on their outstanding achievements!
