Dr. Ramesh Namdeo Pudake is an Assistant Professor in Amity University Uttar Pradesh - one of the top ranked private universities in India. Dr. Pudake is a PhD in Crop Genetics and Breeding from China Agricultural University, Beijing, PRC. After his PhD he is engaged in research in a range of organisms but with a focus on crop plant genomics. He has also worked in the Department of Agronomy at Iowa State University Ames, IA, USA on host-pathogen interaction and gene mapping. Currently he is focusing on the research on different application genomics in plant-pathogen interaction. Dr. Pudake has published more than 35 research publications, 2 books, 15 book chapters. He also has one scholarship award from Chinese Government for pursuing his doctoral studies. He is an expert reviewer for several journals of repute. Dr. Maya Kumari is working as Scientist-E in Directorate of Life sciences, Defence Research and Development Organization, Govt. of India; and has more than 12 yearsof research experience in the field of plant molecular biology. Her research work in functional and molecular breeding for detection of molecular mechanism of plant biotic stress tolerance is of high scientific and social relevance. Currently she is coordinating various projects related to biological defence technologies and acting as interface between army, industry and DRDO Labs. She has published more than 40 research papers, and act as reviewer for scientific articles in reputed journals. Besides her published work, Dr. Maya persuaded to achieve many awards including Masters Gold Medal, Endeavour Research Scholarship, DEST, Australia, to carry out research at CLIMA, UWA, Australia, Young Women Scientist Scholarship, Department of Science and Technology, Junior/ Senior Research Fellow of Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, Govt. of India, Chinese Government Scholarship, China Scholarship Council, P.R. of China.
