Prof.Dr. Nabil Elwakeil, he is currently working as Professor of Biological Control of Insects in King Faisal University in Saudi Arabia. He has over 35 years of experience in the field of Entomology and Biological Control. He began his professional career at the National Research Centre in Cairo in 1993. He obtained his Ph.D. in Agricultural Sciences (Biological Control of Insects) from Georg August- Göttingen University in Germany in 2003 and has been working as a Professor of Biological Control of insect pests since June 2013. Dr. Elwakeil has extensive research and academic experience, including work and teaching at significant international universities such as Martin Luther University in Germany and the Texas A&M University - USA. He is currently working as a Professor of Entomology and Biological Control at King Faisal University in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. He has participated in international projects in the field of biological control and studying the impact of genetically engineered crops on natural enemies. His distinguished scientific contributions include nearly 60 research papers published in international journals, and he has co-authored 10 books on integrated pest management for strategic crops such as cotton, wheat, corn, grapes, and potatoes.His Most Prominent Areas of Expertise Include:Mass rearing and production of natural enemies (especially the parasitoid Trichogramma).Studying the behavior of insect parasitoids and their interaction with plant hosts.Studying the impact of genetically engineered plants on insects and natural enemies.Using predators (such as lady beetle and aphid lions), parasitoids, and entomopathogenic nematodes in biological control.Studying the effect of plant morphological and chemical characteristics on the behavior of natural enemies.Prof. Dr. Ahmed Abdelkhalek is Professor of Molecular Plant Pathology at the City of Scientific Research and Technological Applications (SRTA-City), Egypt. His research focuses on plant virology, molecular biology, biotechnology, and biological control, particularly plant–microbe interactions and sustainable management of plant pathogens. His work includes antiviral strategies, green nanotechnology, microbial biocontrol, and plant defense mechanisms. He has published more than 100 peer-reviewed papers and has led and contributed to funded projects on antiviral compounds, rhizobial interactions, and eco-friendly biocontrol of plant pathogens. He has held postdoctoral appointments in India, Slovakia, and Poland. In 2020, he received the State Incentive Award in Advanced Technological Sciences (Agricultural Sciences) and was included in Stanford University’s list of the world’s top 2% scientists in 2023, 2024, and 2025.
