Dr. Tridib Kumar Bhowmick is the assistant professor at Department of Bioengineering at National Institute of Technology Agartala, Tripura, India. He had received his Ph. D degree from Department of Chemical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, India, in 2009. During his PhD, he had worked on Indian traditional medicine. He was a postdoctoral research assistant in Institute for Bioscience and Biotechnology Research, University of Maryland, College Park, MD from 2008 to 2013. His research was focused on nanomaterials and targeted delivery of therapeutic molecules. He had made a number of publication on nanomedicine. Currently, he is involved to explore north east region of India representing biodiversity hotspot with endemic flora and fauna, to identify promising microalgal strains as resource for alternative renewable energy production. His broad goal of interest is to understand the characteristics of biomaterials at nano-scale level and looking forward their novel application possibilities. His goal in teaching students is to provide the basic foundations that will allow each student to develop his or her understanding of and capabilities in the area of biotechnology and bioengineering.

Dr. Sunil K. Maity is an academician in the field of Chemical Engineering. He is currently working as an Associate Professor at Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad, India. Prior to this, he served about two and half years as an Assistant Professor at National Institute of Technology Rourkela, India. He did his PhD from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur. His current research interests are i) biorefinery for biofuels and chemical, ii) heterogeneous catalysis and chemical reaction engineering, and iii) process design and techno-economic analysis. He is currently working on hydrodeoxygenation of vegetable oils, steam and oxidative steam reforming, production of gasoline, butylene and aromatics from bio-butanol, hydroxyalkylation-alkylation reaction, and production of butyl levulinate from furfuryl alcohol. He has executed number of externally funded projects. As a research outcome, he has published more than twenty-five research articles, two book chapters, and several national and international conferences.
