Niraj Singh holds a master’s degree in Molecular Biology and Technology and a PhD in Molecular Microbiology from Tezpur University, Assam. He has qualified for numerous national and state-level exams in Life Sciences and Biotechnology, enabling him to pursue research at central universities and institutes. After his PhD, he began teaching at North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong, and currently serves as an Assistant Professor and Coordinator at the Department of Microbiology, Assam Royal Global University, Guwahati. His research focuses on virulence gene functions, crop disease control, and Ralstonia solanacearum bacterial wilt, for which he was awarded a Hayward-Prior travel grant in 2020. He has previously disseminated his research in journals articles, book chapters, and a volume published by Springer. He has also received a Young Scientist Award, a Young Plant Pathologist Award, and a Certificate of Appreciation at the Gujrat Vigyan Sammelan in 2022.Javid A. Parray holds a master’s degree in Environmental Science and completed his MPhil and PhD from the University of Kashmir, and qualified for the prestigious JKSLET exam. He also conducted post-doctoral research at Kashmir University and received a Fast Track Young Scientist Project by the Science and Engineering Research Board of the Government of India. He currently teaches at the Department of Environmental Science, GDC Eidgah Srinagar, affiliated with Cluster University Srinagar. His research interests include ecological and agricultural microbiology, climate change, microbial biotechnology, and environmental microbiomes. He is a prolific author and editor of numerous papers and books and serves on the editorial boards of several high-impact journals. A member of various scientific organizations, he received the “Emerging Scientist of the Year” Gold Medal in 2018. Currently, he is the national coordinator for a Swayam Moocs program on Environmental Science.

Between 2020 and 2022, he served as an Associate Professor at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Kunming Institute of Botany. He completed his postdoctoral research at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography, Urumqi, China, in 2017. His research focuses on identifying pathogenic fungi, bacteria, and viruses on medicinal plants using morphological and molecular techniques. He also investigates the diversity and functions of endophytes from medicinal plants through dependent-culture methods, metagenomic pyrosequencing, and screening for functional genes such as PKS and NRPS, with an emphasis on their anti-cancer, antimicrobial, and plant growth-promoting activities. Dilfuza Egamberdieva is a Research Associate at the Leibniz Centre of Agricultural Landscape Research, Germany, and head of the Joint Uzbek-China Key Lab of Ecobiomes of Arid Lands at the National University of Uzbekistan. Her research focuses on microbial ecology, plant-microbe interactions, plant nutrition, stress tolerance, and biological disease control. She holds an MSc in Microbiology and Chemistry from the National University of Uzbekistan and a PhD in Agricultural Biotechnology from Humboldt University of Berlin. Her postdoctoral studies included positions at Helsinki University, Florence University, Manchester Metropolitan University, and Leiden University. She has received numerous awards, including the 2019 SCOPUS Top Scientist of the Year, the 2013 TWAS Award in Agricultural Sciences, the 2006 L'OREAL-UNESCO Fellowship, and the 2005 UNESCO-Man and Biosphere Award, among others.
