Sinoj Abraham hails from India. Following his Bachelors and Masters degrees, he pursued his PhD in Chemical and Biomaterial Engineering. He was a post-doctoral fellow at the University of Alberta at AFNS and CME department for few years working on deriving biodegradable polymers from Canola Oil and Anti-fouling surfaces for bioengineering. He then joined Hy-Power Nano Inc. as a senior process engineer. He is one among the founders of a technology development and commercialization company named Polynanoinnovates Inc. In 2013 he joined Ingenuity Laboratory as lead macromolecular and Biopolymer Specialist. Ingenuity lab is a newly formed, provincially funded laboratory, with the goal to turn Alberta into a globally competitive research hub, followed by the eventual commercialization of new ideas and findings.
