About the Author: Prof. Dr. Ki-Taek Ph. D. is a Professor in the Department of Biosystems Engineering at Kangwon National University, Chuncheon and has been a faculty member since February 2015. Prior to his appointment, he served at the Institute for Nanoscience & Engineering, University of Arkansas, and Dental Research Institute of Seoul National University (SNU) as a postdoctoral fellow after receiving his Ph.D. in Biosystems & Biomaterials Science and Engineering from SNU.
His Ph.D. developed a novel stimuli-assisted platform system that can automatically culture the stem cells that exhibited the unique bioreactor system. His research interests center on improving the understanding, design, and performance of biophysical engineering approaches in molecular & cellular mechanics for controlled stem cells converging the bio/nano-technologies. The recent research in the Lim group integrates new bioreactor process, optical, and bio/nano-technology tools for application in biology and agricultural engineering. He has published over 180 refereed publications in high-impact factor journals, more than 20 book chapters, and holds over 30 patents. He pioneers the bio-convergence system in biosystems engineering approaches, aiming to enable multi-parametric studies with the power to reveal the workings of natural and engineered biological systems.
Kamel A. Abd-Elsalam, Ph.D. is currently a Research Professor at the Plant Pathology Research Institute, Agricultural Research Center, Giza, Egypt. Dr. Kamel's research interests include developing, improving, and deploying plant biosecurity diagnostic tools, understanding and exploiting fungal pathogen genomes, and developing eco-friendly hybrid nanomaterials for controlling toxicogenic fungi, plant diseases and Agroecosystems applications.In addition to this series, Nanobiotechnology for Plant Protection, he also serves as the Series Editor of the Elsevier book series Applications of Genome Modified Plants and Microbes in Food and Agriculture. He has also participated as an active member of the Elsevier Advisory Panel, giving feedback and suggestions for improvement of Elsevier's products and services since 2020. He has published extensively in international peer reviewed journals including Fungal Biology and International Journal of Biological Macromolecules. He served as a Guest Editor for the Journal of Fungi, Plants, and Microorganisms, and as a Review Editor for Frontiers in Genomic Assay Technology and refereed for a number of reputed journals. In 2014, he was awarded the Federation of Arab Scientific Study Councils Prize for excellent scientific research in biotechnology (fungal genomics) (first ranking). In addition, according to Stanford University's worldwide database rating in 2021, Kamel A. Abd-Elsalam has been listed among the top 2% of the world's most influential scientists by Stanford University and Elsevier. Dr. Kamel earned his Ph.D. in Molecular Plant Pathology from Christian Alberchts University of Kiel (Germany) and Suez Canal University (Egypt), and in 2008, he was awarded a postdoctoral fellowship from the same institution. Dr. Kamel was a visiting associate professor at Mae Fah Luang University in Thailand, the Institute of Microbiology at TUM in Germany, the Laboratory of Phytopathology at Wageningen University in the Netherlands, and the Plant Protection Department at Sassari University in Italy and Moscow University in Russia.
