Biography

A. Arun Prince Milton is an Agricultural Research Service (ARS) scientist (2017 batch) currently serving as an Animal Health Scientist at the ICAR Research Complex for the North Eastern Hill (NEH) Region, Meghalaya. He is a veterinary graduate from Madras Veterinary College and holds an M.V.Sc. in Veterinary Public Health and a Ph.D. from ICAR–Indian Veterinary Research Institute (IVRI). He is also an ICMR–DHR International Fellow and has completed a one-year fellowship at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, USA. His research focuses on zoonotic diseases, livestock diseases, and transboundary animal diseases, with emphasis on epidemiology and diagnostic development in the Northeastern region of India. He has developed several cost-effective, field-deployable nucleic acid–based diagnostic assays for the detection of major livestock and zoonotic pathogens. Dr. Milton has authored over 105 peer-reviewed research papers, holds two granted patents, three registered copyrights, and several additional patent filings. He has received multiple prestigious awards and competitive grants, including the DST Young Scientist Grant, DST Core Research Grant, ICMR Adhoc Grant, IVRI C.M. Singh Best Ph.D. Scholar Award & Gold Medal, NAAS Young Scientist Award, NAAS Associate Recognition, ASCI–CIPS Innovation Award, Dr. V.N. Bachhil Young Scientist Award, Mahendra Pal Zoonoses Award, and the F.M. Burnett Memorial Award.
