Dr. Rajput recently received “Highly Qualified Specialist” Status by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation and Southern Federal University, Russia. Dr. Tatiana Minkina is the Head of Soil Science and Land Evaluation Department of Southern Federal University, Russia. Her areas of scientific interest are soil science, biogeochemistry of trace elements, environmental soil chemistry and soil monitoring. In 2015, she was awarded a Diploma of the Ministry of Education and Science for many years of long-term work for the development and improvement of the educational process and significant contribution to the training of highly qualified specialists. She is a member of the International Committee on Contamination Land; Eurasian Soil Science Societies; the International Committee on Protection of the Environment; and the International Scientific Committee of the International Conferences on Biogeochemistry of Trace Elements. She has 389 scientific publications published in English and is the editor of an Open Access Journal by MDPI “Water.” Dr. Svetlana Sushkova is an Associate Professor and Head of the “Ecological Soil Monitoring” laboratory, Southern Federal University, Russia. She is also Vice-Director of the International Collaboration of Academy of Biology and Biotechnology at Southern Federal University since 2015. She received an "International and National Recognition" Diploma and “100 young scientists award” by Rector, Southern Federal University for years; 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019. She is a leader of several international student & faculty programs such as TUBITAK projects for Turkey, Erasmus+ exchange program for Germany, and the Belt and Road Project for China. Currently, she her main research focuses are nanotoxicity, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons contamination, green chemistry, and soil-plant interactions. She has published 100 scientific publications and received 8 patents. Dr Svetlana is also member of the Editorial board Eurasian Journal of Soil Science. Dr. Saglara S. Mandzhieva is a Researcher and Head of the “Monitoring of Biosphere” Laboratory of Southern Federal University, Russia. She earned her PhD in Soil Science and is currently researching biogeochemistry of trace elements in soil, environmental soil chemistry, and remediation using physicochemical treatment methods. She has published 354 scientific publications and is a member of the Eurasian Soil Science Societies and the Russian Society of Soil Science. Dr Mandzhieva is a member of various international peer-reviewed journals, including editorial board member of “Minerals. Dr. Christopher Rensing is Distinguished Professor and Director of the Institute of Environmental Microbiology. He was born in Princeton, New Jersey but grew up and studied in Germany. He received his PhD at the Free University in Berlin in 1996. After doing a postdoc with Prof. Barry Rosen at Wayne State University in Detroit, he accepted a faculty position at the University of Arizona in 1999. After promotion to Associate Professor he later accepted a position of Full Professor at the University of Copenhagen in 2012. Finally, he accepted his present position in 2016. The main emphasis of his research is understanding metal-microbe interactions. He has published around 200 peer-reviewed publications with 15,126 citations. He is Associate Editor of Frontiers in Microbiology and Editorial Board member of Applied and Environmental Microbiology.
