Dr. Nirmal Joshee is a Professor of Plant Science at Fort Valley State University (FVSU), Fort Valley, GA, USA. He earned his Ph.D. from North Eastern Hill University, Shillong, India. He did post-doctoral research work in Japan (Biotechnology Institute, Akita) and the USA (University of Nebraska Medical Ctr., Omaha, NE) before joining FVSU. Dr. Joshee is one of the founding members of American Council for Medicinally Active Plants (ACMAP), and currently serves as the Vice-President. His lab conducts research in the field of plant tissue culture and conservation, antitumor compounds in the genus Scutellaria, and gene transfer strategies for plant transformation and secondary metabolite production. Dr. Sadanand Dhekney is an Associate Professor of Genetics and Plant Breeding at the University of Maryland, Eastern Shore. He received a PhD in Horticulture from the University of Florida (UF), which was followed by post-doctoral research at UF and Assistant/Associate Professor positions at the University of Wyoming.
