Hi, I’m Sanjeewa Gamagedara. I have completed my BSc.(Hons) Chemistry Special degree (2002-2006) at the Faculty of Science, University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka. Also I finished Advanced Diploma in Information Technology at the Sri Lanka Institute of Information Technology (SLIIT). I completed my primary and high school education at the Dharmaraja College, Kandy, Sri Lanka. Currently I'm working in the Temporary Academic Staff, Department of Chemistry,University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka. For my Undergraduate degree I studied Chemistry, Physics, Molecular Biology & Biotechnology and specialized in Chemistry. From my childhood I had a innate interest in Science. As I look back, I was interested in Instruments and wanted to know how stuff works and what is in it.During my undergraduate studies I became interested in Analytical Chemistry, because of its Interdisciplinary Nature. For my Undergraduate Research I have developed an Electroanalytical Sensor for the detection of diphenyl ether herbicide, Oxyfluorfen. It was presented in a National Conference and Currently being reviewed for publish in an International Research Journal. I’m interested in Chemical Sensors, BioSensors, Miniaturized Sensing devices, Lab on Chips, Bioengineering Instrumentations and currently studying those sensors since we don’t have much facilities to continue research in those miniaturized systems here in Sri Lanka. Hope I will be able to continue my ideas when I’m doing my graduate studies. I use this Blog entry as a “Concept Nursery” to Incubate and share my ideas with the scientific community.
