Dr. Maity did his graduation and masters in Zoology from University of Calcutta, India. His doctoral work was focused on deciphering impact of biological modifiers in stress-induced gastric inflammation and received his PhD in 2010. He has performed most of his PhD work at BARC, Mumbai. Then, he moved to Prof. Rory A. Fisher’s laboratory at the Carver College of Medicine & Holden Comprehensive Cancer Centre at the University of Iowa, USA for postdoctoral studies. His research focus was to dissect the role of G-protein signalling and its regulators in cancer & neurobiology. He has received his independent funding from American Heart Association (AHA) as postdoctoral fellowship, multiple international travel awards, best poster award from ASBMB and Junior Scientist Award in Pharmacology

Dr. Maity returned to India in 2015 with both prestigious Ramalingaswami and Ramanujan Fellowship to start his independent scientific career. He joined the University of Calcutta as DBT Ramalingaswami Fellow and then moved as Assistant Professor to the Centre of Biomedical Research (CBMR), SGPGI Campus at Lucknow in 2017. He has been promoted in 2020 to the Associate Professor and presently working in the ‘Systems Biology’ department. His research group is focused on understanding the impact of G-protein regulators in onco-cardiology, diabetic cardiomyopathy, stress-induced liver physiology and interconnectedness between different vital organs through systemic physiology. In addition, his research group is involved in developing different kind of drug-delivery platforms using short-peptide based self assembled structures for targeted delivery of chemo-drugs (in collaboration). He has currently eight PhD students working with him.
