Saravana's team focuses on understanding the aging process of blood vessels and their functions. Trained as a regenerative biologist during his PhD, Saravana moved to the Max Planck Institute in Germany to study blood vessels in the skeletal system. Subsequently, he secured a prestigious Sir Henry Dale Fellowship from the Wellcome Trust and the Royal Society, to establish his independent research group at Imperial College London. There, he advanced the understanding of blood vessels in bone, with his lab pioneering work on sex differences in the aging of blood vessels and identifying the proteolytic functions of capillaries.
Saravana has received numerous accolades for his work, notable ones being the Young Investigator Award from the European Molecular Biology Organisation, the Rising Star Award, and the Harold Frost Young Investigator Award from the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.
