Autorenporträt

Ranbir Chander Sobti is a Former Education Consultant Governor of Bihar, Senior Scientist (Indian National Science Academy), Former Vice Chancellor, Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Lucknow (UP) and Panjab University, Chandigarh. Professor R.C. Sobti starting his career as an Animal (including human) Cytogeneticist characterized the karyotypes of animals of groups from protozoa to human. He also looked into the mutagenicity /carcinogenicity of environment pollutants both in in vivo and in vitro settings. He then moved on to explore the developments in the molecular biology of diseases. He has proactively been involved in cancer biology and focused on finding out novel tumour markers for cancer detection. He has evaluated the role of gene polymorphisms and their expression in the genesis of various cancers and also in COPD, AIDS and metabolic syndrome. He has identified disease susceptible /protective novel genotypes and determined the crucial role of SACS-1 and STAT genes in the genesis of cervical and prostate cancers. His immense contribution to science includes, inter alia, 350 plus high impact research publications with more than 50 books and 23 Sponsored Research Projects. He has also tried to develop whole organ by tissue/organ culture through custom designed de-cellularization protocol. He has demonstrated that the regulation of stem cell character under in vitro conditions is a function of morphological assortment of Solid Lipid Nanoparticles (SLNC)- an observation that has marked significance in the field of stem cell research. At the moment he is involved in meta data analysis for organ dysfunctioning to investigate underlining molecular mechanism: ML approach. Professor Sobti is a Fellow of the Third World Academy of Sciences (TWAS), National Academy of Sciences, Indian National Science Academy, National Academies of Medical Sciences and Agricultural Sciences and of the Canadian Academy of Cardiovascular Diseases. He is also associated with many other Academic Associations and Institutions in the domain of higher education and research. The litany of honours showered on him includes, among others, the INSA Young Scientist Medal (1978), UGC Career Research Award, Punjab Rattan Award, JC Bose Oration Award and the Life Time Achievement Award of the Punjab Academy of Sciences, Zoological Society of India, and the Environment academy of India, besides many other medals & awards of various reputed National and International Organizations. He was bestowed with Padmashri award by the Government of India in 2009 He has delivered numerous keynote addresses at reputed National and International forums, based on implications and applications of science and scientific temper for general awareness and improvements of everyday life and lifestyle in a lucid and people-centric manner. Aastha Sobti is currently carrying out research at the Department of Immunotechnology, Lund University, Lund, Sweden, under Can Faster, Marie Sk¿odowska-Curie COFUND programme. She has a background in dental sciences and did a specialization in master's in Clinical Dentistry (Oral surgery) from Eastman College, UCL, London. Her core interests are head and neck cancer-based clinical research. In entirety aiding in the field to bring reforms that are required in the present multifarious surgical as well as translational research areas. She has teaching and research experience of about 8 years and published a few papers in international journals of repute. She is a recipient of a large number of prizes and medals for her exceptional work namely the academic certificate of excellence from BAOS, UK and IADR Hatton award (India). Additionally, she has attended and presented papers in international conferences in Hong Kong, Croatia, Brazil, Sweden, UK, Japan, and other countries.
