About
Dr. Abhijit Sarkar is currently an Assistant Professor of Botany at the University of Gour Banga (India). He did his B.Sc. (Hons.) and M.Sc. in Botany (with specialization in Plant Physiology Biochemistry and Plant Molecular Biology) from University of Calcutta (India) and Ph.D. in Botany from Banaras Hindu University (India) in 2012. Dr. Sarkar has major research interests in air pollution and its effect on plant biology and human health including ozone heat UV radiation (natural and man-made) plant pathogens with close collaborators in Japan South Korea Nepal USA Italy and India. Pardeep Singh is Professor and Head at the School of Advanced Chemical Sciences Shoolini University Solan India. He is specialized in physical chemistry and heads a lab of research scholars who work on photocatalysis with the aim of generating new knowledge on graphene-based photocatalytic materials and processes to develop novel de-pollution treatments with enhanced efficiency and pilot-scale applicability. He is also exploring the generation of bio-waste material-based activated carbon for adsorption-based removal of aqueous phase pollutants. Professor Randeep Rakwal is a Professor at the University of Tsukuba (Japan) at the Faculty of Health and Sport Sciences. Being expert in multidiscipline he continues his research work on plants human health and animal-human systems using omics. His major research interests in plant environmental stress biology arejasmonic acid ozone heat radiations plant pathogens using omics” approaches with close collaborators in Japan South Korea Nepal USA Italy Australia and India. He is the initiator and one of the founding members of the International Plant Proteomics Organization (INPPO). Ganesh Kumar Agrawal is the Associate Director of RLABB a non-profit research organization focusing on biotechnology and biochemistry in Kathmandu Nepal. Dr. Agrawal is a multidisciplinary scientist focused on food security and human nutrition using high-throughput and targeted omics techniques. He has edited a comprehensive Plant Proteomics: Technologies Strategies and Applications” book (John Wiley & Sons NY USA). He earned his Ph.D. in Applied Biological Chemistry (Biochemistry & Biotechnology Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology Japan). He is an initiator of the International Plant Proteomics Organization.
