About the Author

Dr. Rajesh S. Bhosale is an Associate Professor at School of Sciences, Indrashil University, Rajpur, Mehsana, Gujarat, India. He did his PhD (2009) from University of Geneva (Switzerland) under the supervision of Prof. Stefan Matile. Thereafter, he did first post-doctoral research as SNSF postdoctoral fellow from top institutes of World i.e. MIT-Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, USA in the group of Prof. Timothy M. Swager and second post-doctoral research as DFG postdoctoral fellow from FRIAS-Freiburg Institute for Advanced Studies, Germany in the group of Prof. Aurelio Mateo-alonso. Where he was excelled in challenging multistep chemical synthesis, electrochemical, photophysical and self-assembly properties study of small molecules, macromolecules and polymer chromophoric systems. He also served as RMIT research associate in the group of Prof. M. Lakshmi Kantam at CSIR-IICT, Hyderabad and in July 2015 he becomes a CSIR scientist pool officer. His research interests are focused on building AIE active novel molecules. Dr Vijai Singh is a Professor and Dean (Research & Innovation) at School of Sciences, Indrashil University, Rajpur, Mehsana, Gujarat, India. He was an Associate Professor in the Department of Biosciences, School of Sciences, Indrashil University, Rajpur, Mehsana, Gujarat, India. Prior this this, he was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences and Biotechnology at the Institute of Advanced Research, Gandhinagar, India and also an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biotechnology at the Invertis University, Bareilly, India. Prior to that, he was a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Synthetic Biology Group at the Institute of Systems and Synthetic Biology, Paris, France and School of Energy & Chemical Engineering at the Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology, Ulsan, South Korea. He received his Ph.D. in Biotechnology from the National Bureau of Fish Genetic Resources, Uttar Pradesh Technical University, Lucknow, India with a research focus on the development of molecular and immunoassays for diagnosis of Aeromonas hydrophila. His research interests are focused on building novel biosynthetic pathways for production of medically and industrially important biomolecules. Additionally, his laboratory is working on CRISPR-Cas9 tools for genome editing. He has more than 11 years of research and teaching experience in synthetic biology, metabolic engineering, bioinformatics, microbiology, and industrial microbiology. He has published 100 articles, 70 chapters, 15 books and 3 patents. He serves as an associate editor, editorial board member, and reviewer of several peer-reviewed journals. He is also a member of the Board of Study and Academic Council of Indrashil University and is the Member Secretary of the Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBSC) at the same University.
