Research Interest

Dr Goyal’s group has been investigating the extracts of various medicinal plants e.g. Emblica officinalis (Amla), Rosemary officinalis (Rosemary), Alstonia scholaris (Sapthaparna), Aegle marmelos (Bael), Phyllanthus niruri (Bhumi amla), Syzgium cumini (Jamun), Tinospora cordifolia (Gloe), Averroa carambola (Kamrak) in various mouse models for the prevention and treatment of skin, stomach and liver cancers. It has been found that most of these plant extract have prophylactic potential in reducing the incidence of cancer and delaying the appearance of tumors. These results have been published in various national & International peer reviewed journals as well as presented in several international conferences. Investigations are ongoing to find out the active constituents / single molecule for the use in clinics for the cancer management.
