Biography
Soumya Ranjan Purohit is Assistant Professor at Tezpur University, Assam. He has five years of Teaching and Research Experience. Dr. Purohit completed his doctoral studies at Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur and Post-doctoral research at South Dakota State University, USA. His research interest is food bioprocessing with particular emphasis on sustainability.
Vasudha Sharma is Assistant Professor in the Department of Food Technology, Jamia Hamdard, New Delhi, India. Dr. Sharma obtained her PhD in Food Process Engineering from IIT Kharagpur and has more than 10 years of teaching and applied research experience in food processing technologies. She has published widely in the areas of functional foods, non-dairy probiotics, sustainable food technologies, process optimization and nanobiosensors for food safety.
Meena Kumari is working as an Assistant Professor at Amity University, Noida, Uttar Pradesh, India. Her research area is focused on bioavailability of nutrients from foods. She has done her Ph.D. from CSIR-Central food technological research institute, Mysuru, Karnataka. She had published papers in peer reviewed international SCI journals. She had also presented papers at various national and international conferences.
Kasi Muthukumarappan has established himself as a global leader in research and mentoring within the food processing sector. He has obtained 65 grants, totaling over $20 million, as a Principal Investigator and co-PI. His scholarly output includes over 250 peer-reviewed publications and more than 350 regional, national, and international presentations. His international recognition stems from his pioneering work in nonthermal processing, rheological properties, and the thermo-chemical conversion of biomass. Dr. Muthukumarappan’s research encompasses fruit juices' rheological properties, coproducts' value addition, and efficient biomass conversion.
Joanna Kane-Potaka is a marketing expert with global leadership in public, private sectors and with non profit organizations including four CGIAR centers - WorldFish, Bioversity, International Water Management Institute (IWMI), and most recently at International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) as the Assistant Director General of External Relations.
