He also holds multiple Indian patents in drug discovery and nanomedicine. He serves as an editorial board member and reviewer for international journals, delivers several talks and poster presentations at conferences, and is actively involved in CCSEA-related ethical committees and university Boards of Studies.Dr. Arun Kumar Singh is an assistant professor in the Department of Pharmacy at Vivekanand Global University, Jaipur. He completed both his MPharm in Pharmaceutics and his PhD at Galgotias University, Greater Noida. His research strengths lie in AI-driven cancer research, nano-formulation, and the intersection of blockchain, IoT, machine learning, big data, and neuroscience with pharmaceutical science. He has authored books and contributed chapters on big data and cancer, and his work includes reviews published in reputable journals. His research appears across publishers such as IOP, Elsevier, CRC Press, and Wiley, reflecting a broad publication record and ongoing contributions to AI-enabled oncology and advanced drug delivery. Dr. Hitesh Chopra, PhD currently at Saveetha School of Engineering is working in primarily area of interest includes nanoformulations, natural polymers, cancer, and wound healing and metabolic disorders. He has authored several papers in high-repute journals with total impact factor more than 1000 Elisabete P. Carreiro is an invited auxiliary researcher at the Associated Lab for Green Chemistry - Clean Technologies and Processes (LAQV@REQUIMTE)-University of Évora (UE). For the past decade years, she has been a PhD Researcher and her research has focused on the areas of organic synthesis and (nano)materials (polymeric, inorganic and smart), sustainable catalysis and medicinal chemistry. She is interested in the development of new molecules and nanomaterials for medicinal purposes and sustainable technologies. She published dozens of articles, one patent, several book chapters and more than 50 communications (posters and oral presentations at international conferences). She has been a team member and collaborator on many research projects. She has supervised doctoral, master and undergraduate students. Carlos M. Gastalho graduated in Pharmaceutical Sciences (MSc, PharmD.) in 2012 from the Faculty of Pharmacy of University of Coimbra and he is currently a PhD Student FCT Grant at University of Évora. His research activity is based on the development of polymeric nanosystems for drug entrapment (either hydrophilic also hydrophobic) with biological and pharmacological activity further assessed through preclinical assays in cell culture.He has also attended several congresses and Symposia related to his PhD and has presented poster communications, was author of abstract publications, co-author of a publication, and co-editor of one book. He participated in the organization of several scientific events. He has also participated, as co-supervisor of High School ERASMUS+ students at the Laboratory of Biochemistry (University of Évora, 2021), also one Bachelor Student in the Biotechnology field (University of Évora, 2022). Anthony J. Burke is an associate professor in pharmaceutical chemistry at the faculty of pharmacy, University of Coimbra. He is an integrated member of the Coimbra Chemistry-Institute for Molecular Chemistry. He has about 180 scientific publications in chemistry including books, book chapters, editorials, papers, book entries, US, European and Portuguese patents and several invited and accepted talks. He was the vice-president of the organic chemistry division of Portuguese Society of Chemistry between 2011-2013 and was admitted as a Fellow of ChemPubSoc Europe in 2020. He was chairman for the 1st five editions of the International Symposium on Synthesis and Catalysis (ISySyCat) and also for the 6th edition in 2025. He is an associate editor for Frontiers in Chemistry – Medicinal and Pharmaceutical Chemistry and an editorial board member of Chemistry Open.
