Our Faculty

1. Introduced a behavioural precision framework for biomedical waste segregation, conceptualizing segregation as a measurable behavioural process rather than solely a regulatory compliance activity.
2. Developed an Indian-origin theoretical framework for behavioural precision in biomedical waste management.
3. Proposed a public health theory for biomedical waste segregation that was developed in Kerala and published in a Nature Portfolio journal.
4. Developed a point-of-generation behavioural measurement architecture comprising:
   • Precision Behaviour Score (PBS)
   • Precision Change Score (PCS)
   • Point-of-Generation Segregation Accuracy (PGSA)
5. Applied the concept of behavioural drift to biomedical waste segregation, providing a theoretical explanation for deterioration in segregation precision over time.
6. Developed the Point-of-Generation Segregation Index (PGS Index) for behavioural assessment of segregation practices.
7. Developed the Global Segregation Safety Scale (GSSS) as a framework for evaluating segregation safety performance.
