Dr. Choudhary is an Assistant Professor at the College of Animal Biotechnology, Guru Angad Dev Veterinary and Animal Sciences University, Punjab. Holding a Ph.D. degree from the University of Maryland, USA, and the United States Department of Agriculture and two post-doctoral from the University of Kentucky, USA. His expertise is mammary stem cells and their use in enhancing milk production and regenerative medicine. He has significant knowledge and experience in veterinary and animal sciences. His doctoral research and project work was mainly focused on bovine and goat mammary stem cells aiming to enhance milk productivity. He is currently exploring the application of mesenchymal stem cells derived from adipose tissue's stromal vascular fractions in canines, which is a promising field of regenerative medicine.
Prof. Malik is serving as the Dean of the College of Animal Biotechnology, Guru Angad Dev Veterinary and Animal Sciences University, Punjab. He has made significant contributions in different areas of animal biotechnology, specifically pathogen diagnosis, epidemiology, and virus-host interactions. He has acquired advanced research experience working at the University of Minnesota, USA; Cheo Medical Hospital, Ontario; and Wuhan Institute of Virology, China.
Dr. Shanti is an active researcher in the College of Animal Biotechnology, Guru Angad Dev Veterinary and Animal Sciences University, Punjab. She had experience working on the possibility of enhancing the mammary stem cell population using xanthosine to increase cell turnover in goats. She was a visiting scientist at the USDA, Beltsville, Maryland (2011-2013) and the lab safety officer at the University of Vermont, USA (2018-2020).
Dr. Sherley is an award-winning physician-scientist and highly reputed researcher of stem cells. He is the founder and CEO of Asymmetrex® LLC, Boston. Dr. Sherley is a graduate of Harvard College. He completed his M.D. and Ph.D. (jointly) from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in 1988. Dr. Sherley has been working in regenerative biology and stem cell medicine for around 20 years. His research is mainly focused on exploring various mechanisms responsible for the specialized renewal properties of adult stem cells and using the gained information to address major research issues limiting the development of adult stem cells for use as biomedicine. His landmark research on the kinetics of stem cell division resulted in the development of precise counting of stem cell and progenitor cells, popularly known as “Kinetic Stem Cell” or KSC counting.
