About the editors
Dr. Madhusudhan Alle is currently working as a Research Professor at Department of Biomedical Science & Institute of Bioscience and Biotechnology, Kangwon National University, South Korea (since 2018). Earlier he has worked as an Associate Professor at Department of Chemistry, Gondar University, Gondar, Ethiopia (2014-2018). During this period he also served as a Coordinator of MSc (Chemistry) Programs and as the Head of the Chemistry Department. Four students submitted their master’s thesis under his supervision. He received his doctorate from Department of Chemistry, Osmania University, India (2013), where he worked on the research projects sponsored by University Grants Commission, India. He has more than 18 years of experience in teaching and research in both academia and industry. He has published more than 50 scientific papers in SCI/SCIE-grade journals as a first and corresponding author and also published 4 book chapters (Springer and Elsevier). He is also listed as a potential reviewer for many reputed international journals. He is also a member of Ethiopian chemical society and Indian chemical society. He has presented his work in several national and international conferences in India, Ethiopia, and South Korea. He has conducted two research projects sponsored by University Grants Commission (UGC), New Delhi, India. His current research interests include biosciences, polymeric nano-drug delivery systems, cancer biology, biomaterials for sustainability and catalysis. Extraction and chemical modification of nanocellulose from lignocellulosic biomass, green synthesis of metal and metal oxide nanoparticles on nanocellulose support and their novel applications in biomedicine, biosensors and catalysis.
Professor Azamal Husen (BSc from Shri Murli Manohar Town Post Graduate College, Ballia, UP, MSc from Hamdard University, New Delhi, and PhD from Forest Research Institute, Dehra Dun, India) is a Foreign Delegate at Wolaita Sodo University, Wolaita, Ethiopia. He has served the University of Gondar, Ethiopia, as a Full Professor of Biology, and also worked as the Coordinator of the MSc Program and as the Head, Department of Biology. He was a Visiting Faculty of the Forest Research Institute, and the Doon College of Agriculture and Forest at Dehra Dun, India. He has more than 20 years’ experience of teaching, research, and administration. Dr Husen specializes in biogenic nanomaterial fabrication and their application, plant responses to nanomaterials, plant production and adaptation to harsh environments at the physiological, biochemical, and molecular levels, herbal medicine, and clonal propagation and improvement of tree species. He has conducted several research projects sponsored by various funding agencies, including the World Bank, the Indian Council of Agriculture Research (ICAR), the Indian Council of Forest Research Education (ICFRE); and the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC). He has published over 100 research papers, review articles and book chapters, edited books of international repute, presented papers in several conferences, and produced over a dozen manuals and monographs. Dr Husen received four fellowships from India and a recognition award from the University of Gondar, Ethiopia, for excellent teaching, research, and community service.
