Dr. Gogia is a Post-Doctoral Associate at Yale. Having completed her PhD degree at the University of Dayton, and Cornell University’s International Agriculture and Rural Development Program (IARD) she was awarded the Gerald L. Willis Award of Excellence for Outstanding Teaching in 2019. Her current work focuses on understanding cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying polyglutamine diseases, namely the identification and validation of genetic modifiers which can serve as potential therapeutic targets and can ameliorate the onset or progression of neurodegenerative diseases. Dr. Prasann Kumar, assistant professor cum research intensive faculty in theDepartment of Agronomy, School of Agricultural (ICAR-Accredited), LovelyProfessional University, Punjab, specializes in stress physiology, plant tissue culture,physiology of plant?microbe/pathogen interaction, and biodiversity management.Dr. Kumar has completed the International Agricultural Rural DevelopmentProgramme from Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, United States. He hasreceived a doctorate from Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi. He also hasauthored 40 books published by national and international publishers, which finda place in national as well as various Overseas Institutions’ libraries. He hasguided 19 MSc students for their thesis.
