He is a former vice-chancellor of Panjab University, Chandigarh, and Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University (Central University), Lucknow, India. He started his career as a cytogeneticist and then moved on to molecular biology, including genomics, to understand the susceptibility and disease process of cancer, COPD, AIDS metabolic syndrome, and kidney diseases. He has also used stem cells and nanoparticles to understand the process of tissue organ development through a designed de-cellularization protocol. Professor Sobti has published numerous research articles in journals of international repute and has also published a lot of books. He is a fellow of the Third World Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Sciences India, the Indian National Science Academy, the National Academy of Medical Sciences, the National Academy of Agricultural Sciences, the Canadian Academy of Cardiovascular Diseases, and others. He was the general president of the Indian Science Congress for the 102nd session held at the University of Jammu in 2013. Professor Sobti is the recipient of many prestigious awards like the INSA Young Scientist Medal, UGC Career Award, Punjab Rattan Award, JC Bose Oration and Sriram Oration Awards and Lifetime Achievement Awards of the Punjab Academy of Sciences, Zoological Society of India, and the Environment Academy of India. The Government of India bestowed upon him the honor of "PADMASHRI" in 2009 by rightfully acknowledging his outstanding contribution to higher education in India.
