Strategic consulting for biotech, pharma, and healthcare organisations navigating research, regulatory, and clinical development — from India to the world.
18+ years bridging science, healthcare delivery, and global partnerships. Skilled at leading complex, multi-stakeholder initiatives across diagnostics, vaccines, real-world data, and healthcare technology — with a proven record of translating evidence into sustainable healthcare practices.
Deep domain expertise across the full spectrum of healthcare innovation — from bench to market, from India to global.
100% regulatory approval success rate across multiple markets and submission types.
18+ years in antibody engineering, diagnostic development, and point-of-care technology.
Led teams analysing 500TB+ healthcare datasets to generate evidence for decision-making.
Large-scale improvement project design across diverse healthcare environments globally.
Cross-cultural collaboration informed by work across 60+ countries and diverse stakeholder environments.
End-to-end development, validation, and scaling of diagnostic innovations for underserved populations.
This is the belief that drives every engagement. Kinila Life Sciences brings together deep scientific expertise and a systems-level understanding of healthcare delivery — with the conviction that knowledge must translate into practice to have any value.
We work with biotech, pharma, and healthcare organisations that want rigorous thinking, honest counsel, and a partner who understands both the science and the system it operates within.
Every recommendation is grounded in data, literature, and real-world experience — not generic frameworks.
We look beyond the immediate problem to understand the system it sits in — regulatory, clinical, organisational, and cultural.
Solutions that only work for well-resourced settings are incomplete. We design with underserved populations in mind from the start.
From research to regulatory submission to real-world implementation — we stay with the work until it lands in practice.
Research institutions are built to generate knowledge — not to navigate funding ecosystems. Kinila Life Sciences bridges that gap, offering hands-on support across the full arc from strategy to submission to implementation.
Securing funding requires a different skill set from doing the science. We work with academic and research partners to develop compelling, well-structured grant proposals — from funder identification and narrative strategy to completing online applications, budget justification, and submission compliance. We take the administrative burden off researchers so they can focus on the work.

We contribute to implementation design, stakeholder alignment, and evaluation frameworks from the earliest stages of a project.
We connect research institutions with industry partners, NGOs, healthcare systems, and funders through our networks across global health, biotechnology, and healthcare innovation. Whether you are looking for a co-investigator, an industry collaborator, or a delivery partner, we help build the right table.
Strategic guidance on regulatory submissions (FDA, EMA, ICMR), clinical trial design, diagnostic development, and navigating complex multi-stakeholder approval processes across India and internationally.
From study design to analysis, we support evidence generation from real-world healthcare data — including outcomes research, post-market studies, and data strategies for grant applications and regulatory submissions.
Kinila Life Sciences maintains an active portfolio of research collaborations, grant proposals, and consulting engagements across global health, healthcare AI, and biotechnology. Details of individual projects are shared selectively given the confidential nature of proposals in development.
Collaborating with a South Indian university on a global health research grant proposal focused on antimicrobial resistance and precision stewardship. Contributing to research design, AI platform strategy, and behavioural science components.
Designed and developed an AI-based clinical decision support tool for community health workers, validated through a structured clinical study. A funding proposal for formal evaluation and implementation is currently under review.
Contributing to research strategy, innovation framing, and partnership development for a microbial and enzyme-based wastewater treatment platform. Working with an industry partner on positioning and next steps.
Contributed to the design and implementation of a community-based behavioural intervention focused on nutrition in rural Maharashtra, in partnership with a non-profit organisation. Involved in intervention strategy, design, and field implementation over a one-year period. The programme showed positive outcomes during the period of involvement.
Mridula is a scientist and strategist with a PhD in Biochemistry/Molecular Biology and 18+ years across diagnostics, vaccines, digital health, and global health systems.
Alongside the scientific work, a long-standing interest in behavioural science informs how I approach intervention design — from antimicrobial stewardship to nutrition programmes to community health tools.
Kinila Life Sciences brings this experience to research institutions, biotech and pharma organisations, and global health initiatives that need strategic, evidence-driven support.
The consulting practice is only one part of the work. Kinila is also building an AI health platform designed for the 3.5 billion people who lack access to basic healthcare — starting with the clinical decision support tool already deployed in coastal Karnataka.
Unlike existing solutions designed for hospitals, our tools work on smartphones in low-resource settings, designed for community health workers at the front line of care.
"We're not bringing urban healthcare to rural areas — we're building rural healthcare for rural realities."
