Biography
Adejoke Blessing Aransiola received her B.Tech (2010-2015) and M.Tech (2018-2023) with specialty in Remote Sensing for Mineral Prospecting from the Department of Surveying and Geoinformatics, School of Environmental Technology, Federal University of Technology, Minna, Niger State, Nigeria. She is currently a PhD student in the same institution, specializing in heat waves and climatic change monitoring using remote sensing techniques. She is a Registered Surveyor of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Suhasini Bhatnagar holds a Ph.D. in Medical Genetics from Sanjay Gandhi Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences, Lucknow, India. She began her career teaching Biotechnology at various colleges across India before establishing her own company, which operates on a project basis focusing on sustainable development goals, particularly water and food. She holds several patents in her area of expertise and is an active researcher in heavy metals and recycling. Her work centers on projects that improve quality of life through scientific approaches, with particular attention to environmental challenges. Her research interests include addressing problems related to sustainability and environmental protection.
Sesan Abiodun Aransiola holds a Ph.D. in Environmental Microbiology from the Department of Microbiology, Federal University of Technology, Minna, Nigeria. He obtained his B.Tech (2009) and M.Tech (2014) from the same department. His research expertise includes the production of vermicast from vermicomposting of organic wastes to assist plants in the remediation of polluted soil with heavy metals. He is currently a Lecturer at the Department of Microbiology, University of Abuja, Nigeria. His research interests focus on environmental microbiology, including phytoremediation, vermicomposting, biosorption, and bioremediation of contaminated soil environments.
Naga Raju Maddela received his M.Sc. (1996-1998) and Ph.D. (2012) in Microbiology from Sri Krishnadevaraya University, Anantapuramu, India. During his doctoral program in Environmental Microbiology, he investigated the effects of industrial effluents and insecticides on soil microorganisms and their biological activities. He has been teaching undergraduate and postgraduate students in Microbiology since 1998. He worked as Prometeo Investigator at Universidad Estatal Amazónica, Ecuador (2013-2015), and received a Postdoctoral Fellowship (2016-2018) from Sun Yat-sen University, China.
