The registered company address is: 152 Beach Road, #21-01/04 Gateway East, Singapore 189721, Singapore Foreword In the twentieth century, humans acquired skills to connect fungi to protect human health (through antibiotics, antimicrobial, immunosuppressive agents, etc.), which led industrial scale production of enzymes, alkaloids, detergents, acids, biosurfac- tants, etc. With the establishment of modern nanotechnology in the 1980s, fungal- based innovations continued to excite by providing greener (non-toxic, eco-friendly, cost effective, non-hazardous and sustainable route) alternative to chemically syn- thesized nanoparticles. The merger of antibacterial and antifungal assets, coupled with their intrinsic “green” and facile synthesis, makes smart biogenic nanostruc- tures for future applications in nanomedicine ranging from topical ointments and bandages for wound healing to coated stents. The present book on Fungal Nanobionics: Principle and Applications is a very timely publication, which intends to provide state-of-art information in the area of nanotechnology, broadly involving fungal-based innovation and applications. The book comprises twelve chapters. The first chapter by Cotica et al. reviews nanobio- composites: synthesis and environmental applications in the development of pro- cesses and methods for remediation and monitoring of systems contaminated with chemical wastes. Chapter 2 highlights the increased productivity and eco-friendly synthesis of nanoparticles by fungi for applications in both pharmaceutical and cos- metic industries presented by El Enshasy et al. In Chap. 3, Abdel-Aziz et al. described microorganisms have a promising role in biosynthesis of nanoparticles, especially fungi secrete enzymes and proteins as reducing agents which can be used for synthesis of metal nanoparticles from metal salts with great significance. Chapter 4 highlights the potential of fungus-originated nanomaterials in mycoremediation of waste and toxic materials discussed by Gholami-Shabani et al. In Chap. 5, Romero et al. highlighted on the potential of biogenic metal nanoparticles as an antimicrobial agent, other potential applications such as their cytotoxic activity against cancer cell lines and several biomedical, pharmaceutical, and agricultural applications. Chapter 6 highlighted on recent advances in biomedical applications of chitosan and its functional nano-derivatives by Rajkumari and Siddhardha. In Chap. 7, Salvadori et al. approach new perspectives for the biosynthesis of nanoma- terials by fungal dead biomass, and at the same time it has the advantage to be a v vi Foreword low-cost effective bioremediation process. In Chap. 8, Boddula et al. emphasized on nanofabrication as the future of metal nanoparticles processing for its wide scale practical and industrial applications. In Chap. 9, Shasmita et al. described a compre- hensive explanation of the strategies used for increasing the production of second- ary metabolites in different in vitro culture system through fungal elicitors. Siddhardha and Parasuraman discussed that fungal-mediated synthesis of metal and metal oxide nanoparticles is cost effective, ecofriendly and fabricated material enhances the antimicrobial and antibiofilm efficacy in Chap. 10. Pandey and Tiwari presented an overview of fungal nanobiotechnology and its application in targeted drug delivery, bio-sensing and development of drugs with enhanced efficiency in Chap. 11. Roy et al. discussed the mycosynthesized nanoparticles and the mecha- nistic approach involved in the synthesis, the reduction of metal ions in developing low-cost techniques and recovery of nanoparticles. Finally, the application of nanoparticles in food processing industries, i.e. antimicrobial mechanisms etc., has also been mentioned in Chap. 12. Overall, it is a great effort by Dr. Ram Prasad, his editorial team and experts from ten countries to make this highly resourceful, up-to-date and worthwhile unique book for the students, researchers, scientists and academician in the field of cutting- edge microbial nanotechnology. I hope that readers will find this book highly useful and interesting in fungal nanotechnology field.

Preface The use of fungi to synthesize functional nanoparticles has been of great interest. Fungi can change the oxidation state of metals, and these fungal processes have opened up new opportunities for us to explore novel applications, for example, the biosynthesis of metal nanomaterials. In contrast to chemical and physical methods, microbial processes for synthesizing nanomaterials can be achieved in aqueous phase under gentle and eco-friendly benign conditions. This approach has become an attractive focus in current green bionanotechnology research toward resource- efficient and sustainable development. The book covers the synthesis of nanoparti- cles by fungi, the mechanism involved in such biosynthesis, and a unique template for synthesis of tailored nanoparticles targeted at therapeutics, diagnostics, biore- mediation, agriculture, and industries. This book should be immensely useful to biological sciences specially microbi- ologists, nanotechnologists, researchers, technocrats, and scientists of fungal nano- biotechnology. We have honored that the leading scientists who have extensive, in-depth experience and expertise in fungal system and nanotechnology took the time and effort to develop these outstanding chapters. Each chapter is written by internationally recognized researchers/scientists so the reader is given an up-to-date and detailed account of our knowledge of the nanobiotechnology and innumerable applications of fungi. We are indebted

    BACKGROUND NOTE HIMALAYAN UNIVERSITY CONSORTIUMNEPAL MEMBERS’MEETING 11 August 2018, Pokhara Co-Organizers: ICIMOD and Pokhara University; Supported by The World Bank I. THE CONTEXT The Himalayan University Consortium has its mandate in developing an effective, sustainable network of universities in the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) region, in collaboration with academic, research, knowledge generating and exchange institutions both within and outside the HKH region. Over the past three years, there has been a renewed interest among existing members and increased interest among potential members. The total members increased from 33 in the beginning of 2016 to 61 by the end of 2017 (Annex 1). Nepal’s universities, most notably Tribhuvan University (TU) and Kathmandu University (KU), have been present in the Consortium since the inception days. As early as December 2008, the Honorable Vice Chancellor of Tribhuvan University, Prof Dr Madhav Prasad Sharma, and the Registrar of Kathmandu University, Prof Bhadra Man Tuladhar, signed a Memorandum of Understanding with ICIMOD concerning the HUC. However, until the 8th year of HUC existence, at the HUC Summit in Kathmandu, October 2015, only the same two universities were present. The HUC membership in Nepal did not expand until October 2016 when the Honorable Vice Chancellor of Pokhara University (PU), Professor Chiranjeebi P Sharma, attended the HUC Annual Meeting in New Delhi. Following the Charter signing ceremony, Professor Sharma spoke passionately about the need to build mountain-focused, HKH-specific research and higher education in Nepal. He also highlight the importance of collaboration among universities in one country and between neighboring countries in the region.
