He obtained his PhD in photobiology and molecular biology of cyanobacteria at Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, India, where he contributed to studies related to DNA damage and repair mechanisms. Dr. Rastogi had postdoctoral stints on algal/cyanobacterial biotechnology in South Korea and Thailand. He was a visiting scientist at Friedrich Alexander University, Nuremberg, Germany and served as a visiting professor of biochemistry at Chulalongkorn University, Thailand. His main research interest is on algae or cyanobacteria with main focus on the biosynthesis of various pigments and UV photo- protectants and their potential application as therapeutics or cosmeceuticals. Dr. Rastogi has explored several photoprotective biomolecules having great capacity to absorb high-energy photons. He has published a number of research papers in journals of international repute and several book chapters. He is an editorial board member for some national and interna- tional journals such as Frontiers in Microbiology, Switzerland. He is a life member of several scientific organizations such as BRSI, AMI, and ISEB and has been conferred with BRSI- Malviya Memorial Award for his outstanding research performance and significant contri- butions in the field of microbial biotechnology. Datta Madamwar, PhD, FBRS, FAMI, FABAP, FGSA Post Graduate Department of Biosciences, Sardar Patel University, Satellite Campus, Vadtal Road, Bakrol 388 315, Anand, Gujarat, India Phone: þ91-982-568-6025 Email: [email protected], [email protected] Dr. Datta Madamwar, currently Professor, Post Grad- uate Department of Biosciences and Dean, Faculty of Science at Sardar Patel University, Vallabh Vidyanagar, Gujarat, India, got his PhD from BITS, Pilani. He has a vast research experience as a postdoctoral fellow at TIFR, xi xii EDITOR’S BIOGRAPHY Mumbai, Universistat Frankfurt, Germany, Universitst at Konstanz, Germany, and also served at BITS, Pilani. Professor Madamwar is a Microbial Biotechnologist with diverse research interest. His current main focus is on nonaqueous enzymology, industrial liquid waste management, and cyanobacterial phybiliproteins. Dr. Madamwar has provided a concept for the enzyme catalysis in apolar organic solvents without the loss of enzyme ac- tivity. He has reported various novel, efficient, and rapid methods of purification of phy- cobiliproteins. The phycoerythrin has been purified to the highest purity level 5:70 ever achieved so far. This has laid to crystallization and structure determination of a-subunit of phycoerythrin. He is a recipient of European Commission Visiting Scientist Fellowship, a Fellow of Biotech Research Society of India, Fellow of Association of Microbiologists of India, Fellow of Association of Biotechnology and Pharmacy and Gujarat Science Academy, and member of several academic bodies. Dr. Madamwar worked as Visiting Professor at Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne, EPFL-ENAC-SGC, Lausanne,
