Autorenporträt

Dr. Dhiraj Kumar completed his post-doctorate at the Molecular Biology Laboratory, School of Biology and Basic Medical Science, Soochow University, China, and selected as a visiting scientist in the prestigious Talented Young Scientist Programme of the Chinese Government. He also worked as an Assistant Professor at the Department of Zoology, Guru Ghasidas Vishwavidyalaya (A Central University), Bilaspur (C.G.), India. Dr. Kumar received a young scientist award and an outstanding paper award for his research contributions in biological science. He has published numerous research papers in renowned international journals including those from the Nature Publishing Group and has filed a patent for his new innovation. Presently Dr. Kumar's research is focused on metagenomics, transgenic technology, and biomedical science. Dr. Chengliang Gong is currently serving at Soochow University, China, as a Professor and Dean of the Department of Applied Biology, School of Biology and Basic Medical Science. He is also Vice President of the Sericultural Society of Jiangsu Province, China. Prof. Gong has carried out over forty research projects as a PI funded by various research funding organizations of China and has published more than fifty research papers in international journals. He has also obtained ten patents as the first inventor. His major research interests are in the areas of genetic manipulation, molecular biology, biochemistry, and pathology of insects and aquatic animals.
