Biosketch:  

Dr. Atar Singh Kushwah is currently, working as Postdoctoral Research Scientist in the area of Genetic and Epigenetic alterations in genes responsible for DNA Damage and Response at Department of Urology, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, United States.

Dr. Kushwah has extensive experience in the area of Molecular & Human Genetics, Virology and immunology. His areas of research interest are Pharmaco-epi-genetics and Therapeutics. He was credited with several awards including the Uddeepan Award 2019-20 and 2020-21, ICMR SRF, Best Paper and Poster Presentation. He was also associated with several international journals of repute as a peer reviewer and an editorial board member.

The Research Interests of Dr. Atar Singh Kushwah include: Genetic and epigenetic are fundamental phenomena that play a key role in the phenotype of the disease including cancer. Eventually, their response is influenced not only by internal and external factors but also by treatment or therapy. Alteration (genetic and epigenetic) in genes involved in genome stability and maintenance is the key issue in complex diseases. These alterations might be responsible for differential drug response and determinants of drug effectiveness and efficacy. Moreover, these alterations can be repaired by cell secretory molecules or by self-trained cell societies and these can be proteins, small RNAs, and cellular metabolites. I am interested in the extensive look at these molecules (biomarkers), proteins (therapeutic targets), and cellular metabolites (biologics) to elucidate the disease biology and their prognosis, diagnosis, and therapeutic potential.

Prior to his current position as a Postdoctoral Research Scientist in the Department of Urology, at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, Dr. Atar Singh Kushwah attained his university degrees and made s scientific contributions in India. He was awarded a bachelor’s degree in Biotechnology and a master’s degree in Molecular & Human Genetics for his formal   Jiwaji University, Gwalior, India.  After receiving his master’s degree, Atar Singh Kushwah joined the Department of Clinical Research & Healthcare Innovation, Narayan Health Group, Jaipur as a Research Officer. Thereafter, Dr. Kushwah joined the Department of Molecular & Human Genetics Laboratory, in the Department of Zoology, at the University of Lucknow, Lucknow. His position was that of a senior project fellow. Dr. Attar Singh Kushwah  Singh Kushwah was awarded completed my Ph.D. degree from Banaras Hindu University in the area of Molecular & Human Genetics on the title of my research entitled Genetic and Epigenetic Alterations in DNA Repair Genes and their Correlation with treatment outcome in cervical cancer.

Dr. Attar Singh Kushwah is experienced in promoting the Public Interest in Health care in an array of Medical School, Life Sciences and University settings. In addition, he has executed teaching responsibilities at several levels in these systems. At least some of his interests will echo with those of other Scientist Board Members of the LSINJ along with his similar experience in lab with other institutional  Scientist (MD or PhD) Board Members. Dr. Kushwah’s bench experience with Genetic and Epigenetic Alterations in DNA Repair Genes brings direct relevant experience to the core goal of the LSINJ in preempting genetic diseases and birth defects.  This experience is irreplaceable for an institution such as the LSINJ. Principally due to the fact that its BM hope someday to enable the LSINJ to house its own research facilities and teams.

Dr. Atar Singh Kushwah  has much to contribute to the Life Sciences Institute of New Jersey in both tangible as well as intangible ways. These include cross-cultural leadership in an institute such as the LSINJ which by definition not only has an international membership, but one that is globally located.

Ms. Hitakshi Mahajan, B.Sc. was elected to the Board of the Life Sciences Institute of New Jersey (LSINJ) on August 13th, 2024. Ms. Hitakshi Mahajan, originally from Udhampur in Jammu and Kashmir, is currently a graduate student of Biotechnology at Shoolini University in Solan, Himachal Pradesh, India. She is currently enrolled as a Graduate Student of Biotechnology at Shoolini University in Himachal Pradesh, India. Ms. Mahajan is mentored by VP LSINJ/Dr. Shazveen Saleem, Pharm.D., M.Phil. Biomed. Sciences, of TechMed, of TechMed Consulting and Global Consulting in Karachi, Pakistan. Ms. Mahajan expects to be awarded the Master of Science degree in Biotechnology (M. Sc. Biotechnology) by Shoolini University, in May 2025. Ms. Mahajan had completed coursework and was awarded the degree of Bachelor of Science in Biotechnology from Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University, Katra, in 2023.

Ms. Mahajan has already acquired extensive scientific experience in the classroom as well as with online courses and on the laboratory bench as is elaborated below as well as in her profile on LinkedIn.

https://www.linkedin.com/in/hitakshi-mahajan-21395521a/

https://shooliniuniversity.com/

This experience has been drawn from an array of international universities and institutions. They are in geographical locations extending from South Asia, predominantly in India, to encompassing professional and scientific institutions and enterprises located in Indochina/South Asia (Singapore), North America, Australia and Europe. They are elaborated on in her Educational Background below as well as in her certifications on LinkedIn.

‘https://www.linkedin.com/in/hitakshi-mahajan-21395521a/ 

Ms. Mahajan has been committed to research and science, specifically based on her keen interest in Biotechnology. At Shoolini University, her primary research focus is on wastewater management and treatment. However, she considers this as an intermediary step to specializing in the fields of Genetics and Cancer Biology, where she hopes to make significant contributions.

In expanding her horizons with explorative knowledge, Ms. Mahajan has completed numerous certifications in various fields of biotechnology. This has exposed her to a spectrum of specialties with the goal of discovering a calling  within the vast domain of biotechnology.

These pursuits have imparted practical experience through various internships. Notably, in an internship at the Central Potato Research Institute (CPRI) in Shimla, where I engaged in intensive work on potato varieties involving multiple approaches to the analyses of DNA. Currently, Ms. Mahajan is honing her skills as a Research Analyst under the guidance of Dr. Shazveen Saleem at TechMed Consulting.

The academic achievements of Ms. Mahajan were recognized with the award of a silver elite medal for her stellar performance in the NPTEL exam in Scientific Communication at IIT Kanpur.

Beyond her academic pursuits, Ms. Mahajan has a keen interest in Mandala art, watching real-life documentaries, and occasionally dancing. These hobbies provide a creative outlet and a balance to her rigorous academic schedule.

Beyond her focus on studies in scientific principles and experimental research, she hopes to contribute meaningfully to society by addressing contemporary challenges. Given her dedication making this impact while promoting progress in the field of Biotechnology, is well within plausible expectations.’

Perhaps predictably Ms. Hitakshi Mahajan has acquired experience in major universities and research centers culminating in an impressive series of qualifications. They are listed on her profile in LinkedIn.

https://www.linkedin.com/in/hitakshi-mahajan-21395521a/

https://shooliniuniversity.com/

Ms. Hitakshi Mahajan has much to contribute to the LSINJ in both tangible as well as intangible ways. These include cross-cultural leadership with experience gained in India and the USA. The LSINJ is an institute which by definition not only has an international membership, but one that is globally located.

On a wider note, perhaps we can consider the necessity of ameliorating the consequences of qualifications to Global Health Research and Policies. As well as the role of the LSINJ, and in anticipation, of Ms. Hitakshi Mahajan, B.Sc.., in bringing meaningful resolution to these challenges. As part of its core mission as a nonprofit tax-exempt Private Foundation the LSINJ has identified and promoted a multi-dimensional resolution to the contradiction of much progress in healthcare with a simultaneous and counter-productive lack of application to populations and policy. All of which are exacerbated by the perpetuation of recurrence of genetic disease pathologies. We anticipate that Ms. Mahajan’s broad background and experience in science, biotechnology and education will facilitate the implementation of these objectives.

On a wider note perhaps we can consider some necessity of ameliorating the consequences of qualifications to Global Health Research and Implementation Policies. As well as the role of the LSINJ, and in anticipation that of Dr. Cosmas Mugambi, in bringing meaningful resolution to this matter. One that is of unparalleled significance to the Public Interest. All the power of high resolution, precision, and content of contemporary methods, when applied in exclusion to evolutionary methods, is contextually and mechanistically qualified - if not irrelevant. The LSINJ has identified and promoted a resolution to this contradiction through its core mission of preempting genetic diseases and birth defects with an approach that is integrative, namely CA RTO based control of the Mutome. Initiation of this undertaking is of necessity restricted to a few well-established fields in the Life, Physical and Computational Sciences but eventually is likely to include all available fields as resources. Although, with the approach of the LSINJ, the analytical power of contemporary methods does have a significant and complementary role to be played in bringing relevance to basic research in healthcare. However, approximately 150 years since the articulation of a relevant and necessary principle of evolutionary genetics, the absence of integration of these indispensable and complementary approaches is revelatory. It reveals limitations of traditional trajectories in medicine, science, and university education. 

As a corollary, the development, application, and implementation of the multiple disciplines underlying CA RTO requires the experience, expertise, applications, specific and integrative capacities of Dr. Cosmas Mugambi working with all our Senior Vice Presidents (SVP) and Board Members.

Dr. Cosmas Mugambi, PhD has much to contribute to the Life Sciences Institute of New Jersey in both tangible as well as intangible ways. These include cross-cultural leadership with experience gained in 14 African nations and the USA located on 2 continents which is of large significance for an institute such as the LSINJ. An institute which by definition not only has an international membership, but one that is globally located.

Ferez held a number of Postdoctoral Fellowship and Faculty positions across the United States in his core areas of research as well as in a broad subset of the Life Sciences. Dr. Nallaseth made some innovative and highly recognized contributions in scientific, societal, sports, civic and cultural areas. Dr. Nallaseth collaborates with international Scientists, Professors and Leaders at Universities, Global Think Tanks, Biotechnology Enterprises and Research Institutions in an array of sub-fields of the Life and Social Sciences in meeting the current challenges in Healthcare and Socioeconomics through the restructured LSINJ first established in 2004. These challenges are met by restructuring of the fundamental paradigm in Medicine, from therapeutic intervention via management to preemption in real time, of thousands of genetic disease lesions. Including those for which preemption is the only ‘real cure’ and cause such intractable pathological conditions as Cancer(s) and Alzheimer’s disease. This strategy emerged from Dr. Nallaseth’s current Core Area of Research in Mammalian Evolutionary Genetics of Speciation, regulation of Chromosome and Genome Biology (specifically DNA replication and recombination), Sex Determination and Gametogenesis. Contributions emerging from a 40 year journey by Dr. Nallaseth, made under extreme sociopolitical and non-scientific duress, have resulted in more than 200 online articles, ebook chapters, including in peer reviewed journals, conference presentations, editorials and OpEd pieces - with another 30 articles and 5 books in preparation. Many of which have corrected the literature of multiple fields published in frontline journals while covering an array of subjects in the various fields of sciences, sociopolitics, socioeconomics, sports and policy. His core work has now developed ramifications for Global Biomedical, Health and Economic Policies through the application of this approach. The magnitude of Global interest in this undertaking of the LSINJ is illustrated with the search term ‘What is the Life Sciences Institute of NJ’ yielding up to 236 million ‘hits’ on a Google Search  (1) Is There a Role for an Evolutionary Genetics Based Rational Health Policy In Global Biomedical, Health and Economic Policies?

SUMMARY STATEMENT

‘Currently I am the Pro Chancellor at KL deemed University, India, and I am involved in the transformation of the University into one with a Global model bringing innovations as its distinguishing feature and building the Brain Research Centre. In April of 2010, I was selected through an open contest, posted in the scientific journal Nature, to become the CEO, Director and Distinguished Professor of the Institute of Scientific Research and High Technology Services (INDICASAT AIP) in the Republic of Panama. My advocacy resulted in the construction of a $30 million research facility known as PRISM (Panamanian Research Institutes of Science and Medicine) completed in 2014. By prioritizing scientific performance and productivity the institute increased its number of publications and its global impact (by over 200%) to become the most productive Panamanian scientific research institute in the country. For developing countries to be successful in a globalized world of science, technology, and innovation, an aggressive model of institutional development was put to practice which included international collaborations, cultivation of advanced education for innovation, and growth in translational/clinical research. My efforts in building science as a tool for development in emerging countries are highlighted in Nature Blog http://blogs.nature.com/tradesecrets/2012/05/14/panamas-east-west-duo, The Business Year 2016-2018, and Nature 2011. '

His vast experience and interests overlap with the many scientific, medical, civic, and societal interests of BM of the LSINJ. Prof. Jagganatha Rao has made large contributions in building universities, educational centers, biotechnological enterprises and medical schools on 2 continents. Those which emerge from his CV, his profile on LinkedIn, on Google Scholar are highly informative:

Prof. Jagganatha Rao is experienced in promoting the Public Interest in Healthcare in an array of Pharmaceutical, Medical School, Biotechnological, and University settings. In addition, he has executed administrative, teaching and experimental responsibilities at several levels in these systems. Including his current position as Pro Chancellor of KL (designated to be) University in Andhra Pradesh, India. Several of his interests will echo with those of Board Members of the LSINJ. His vast experience in Medicine is shared with Physicians/Scientists (MD/PhD) Board Members. Prof. Jagganatha Rao brings Medical College settings and applications. Beyond which it is the vast spectrum of experience of Prof. Jagganatha Rao that would assist the LSINJ in meeting its goals in upholding the Public Interest. Those that have been defined by the current necessities of intractable and expanding disease frequencies and patient populations.

Approximately 150 years of a possible but uninitiated Evolutionary Genetics based and indispensable approach for preemption of genetic disease lesions exist. This has led to increased frequencies of recurrence and expansion of genetic disease states and birth defects and he core mission of the LSINJ. It graphically illustrates the limitations, despite impressive successes, of the past 150 years of traditional trajectories in medicine, science, pharmaceutical and university research, and education. Forcing the founding and advocacy of the nonprofit LSINJ. The leadership of the institute recognizes that the above traditional trajectories do have a significant and complementary role to be played in Healthcare. We anticipate that a Physician/Scientist with the depth and scope of experience and stature of Prof. Jagganatha Rao will play a key role in bridging this chasm between traditional immediate interests and those represented by longer term public interests upheld by the LSINJ.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1whi1GtOKMJvTfqNIvB6KeNEZKBJ43cHx/view?usp=drive_link

The above wide spectrum of experience of Prof. Rao Jagganatha from the highest levels of university building to experience in the Lab as a Scientist, Manager, and an experimental Biologist either working on or sharing interests in Neurodegeneration, Systems, Genomics and Genetics complement those of other Board Members. The breadth and depth of this experience of Prof. Jagganatha Rao is irreplaceable for an institution such as the LSINJ. Particularly, as its BM hope someday to enable the LSINJ to house its own research facilities and teams.

Professor Jagganatha Rao as a Scientist/Physician/ Leader has much to contribute to the Life Sciences Institute of New Jersey (LSINJ) in both tangible as well as intangible ways. These include his cross-cultural leadership with experience gained in 4 nations and on 4 continents which is of large significance for an institute such as the LSINJ. An institute which by definition, not only has an international membership, but one that is globally located. Board Members of the LSINJ look forward to a long, active and productive interaction with Prof. Rao Jagganatha in an ascendant trajectory for the growth of the institute.

Biosketch:   David Sherman, as is his father Ralph Sherman, who is Vice President and Chief of Biophysics Operations of the LSINJ, has made large contributions to the Common Good or the Public Interest, on both an individual and societal level. As well as across the spectrum of Scientific, Industrial, Academic, Religious and Civic dimensions. As a Leader in the LGBTQ Community, David will make a positive contribution to the dialogue within and from the LSINJ at the contentious intersection of religion and science. Mr. David Sherman has undertaken review of the literature on scientific in the field of "Sex Differentiation and Sex Dimorphic Behavior in Vertebral Species". This review was undertaken at the request of the retired Founder of the National Catholic Bioethics Center (NCBC), Father Albert. That project was completed in 2001, but is unpublished. As a Board Member of the LSINJ he will be supported in publishing this work.

As a Board Member of the LSINJ David Sherman will liaise with the LGBTQ Community. He will continue being an advocate for human rights and medical ethics in assisting human society to become informed by the facts of reproductive biology. As opposed to being dominated by some religious or fictitiously perfect sexual dimorphism. He hopes to apply his findings in the literature to demonstrate and convince Humankind of the high frequency of INTERSEX and natural REPRODUCTIVE SEX REVERSAL in populations and species representing all of life on Earth. These species range from microbes and plants to mammals and humans, which underscore the importance and benefit of this biological diversity. One preferred sociopolitical outcome of his effort is the elimination of societal prejudice directed against intersex people and their behavioral sub-sets who self-identify as LGBTQ. 

Mr. Sherman has also conducted his own research in biophysics and biomedical sciences preparing and/or presenting them at conferences.

Some of the many contributions of David Sherman (below) range from his recognized leadership and articulation of strong public positions, some of which are even adopted by global movements in:

(i)              Multiple facets of protecting and promoting Human Rights including the LGBTQ community. He has advised the committee appointed by President Barack Obama for delivering relief to the LGBTQ community, (USA White House Health Conference),

(ii)            Being a Spokesperson for ‘the Organization Intersex International (O.I.I.), the World’s most influential international organization of, and for, intersex people of all kinds.’ David is an intersex person and an expert on the biology of sex differentiation and sex-linked behavior in vertebrate species,

(iii)         Being a lecturer at conferences and teaching postgraduate courses at Universities/Community Colleges in the USA, such as:  

(a) At Marylhurst College Field Studies in 1982,

(b)  In the Marylhurst PLE Program (Course Contract) as a Lecturer On Religion, Human Rights and Social Justice in South East Asia and India,

(c) At Portland State University in Portland, Oregon, he was a co-Founder and Presenter for the academic Arcadian Institute at the Centennial World Parliament of  Religions in Chicago, USA, Portland State University Global Forum as a Guest Lecturer and Workshop Leader on Gandhian Ethics and Applied Theology,    

(iv) papers articulating positions on sociopolitical, spiritual, LGBTQ issues and ethics presented at conferences or global organizations such as (a) the United Nations Non-Nuclear and World Heritage Zone of Peace Declaration for the King of Nepal, (b) Catholic Bishop’s Conferences (NCBC) - on a subject that I know well (sex determination), (c) the World Hindu Organization (W.H.O.) on the commonality of on the ancient relationships between “The Family of  Hindu-Buddhist Sanskrity” and the Judeo-Christian Traditions,

(v)         Delivering spiritual and material relief to those e.g. members of the Intersex Community who are socio-politically excluded or even exploited in both the East and West. He did so in areas with which he closely identified such as, mentally and physically challenged Child Care Treatment and Assessment “Trainable Mentally Retarded” as well as Minor Offender’s Vocational Program

All of these items are expanded on in David Sherman’s website (link below).

To clarify David Sherman’s Indian name posted on his website, Bhakti Ananda Goswami (David M. Sherman), emerges from Eastern and Western religious convictions. Quote:

‘Bhakti Ananda Goswami (David M. Sherman) is a Practicing Catholic Hermit under private vows, and a Tridandi Sannyasi (Vedic monk) and Siksha (Instructing) Master in the Brahma-Madhva-Gaudiya Lineage of Vaishnavism (Vishnu worship). ‘

Website: Colllected Works of Sri Bhakti Ananda Goswami, The Primal Revelations at the Heart of Civilization:

https://bhaktianandascollectedworks.wordpress.com/about/

The barriers that were overcome by David Sherman are reflected in the enormity of scale and extremities of diversity, complexity of nature, magnitude of effort and of physical, societal, economic and life threatening challenges that he has faced throughout his life.  Despite health problems which should have been overwhelming, David Sherman made all of the contributions and still ongoing, to the Public Interest or the Common Good listed above (i to v).

Bhakti  Ananda Goswami (David M. Sherman) has overcome much and stayed true to convictions of both a religious and scientific nature – two disciplines that are a contradiction in terms and hard to resolve. In one of many ways, the first requires cultivating belief while the second requires cultivating disbelief. They are two undertakings that are equally difficult to reconcile and yet David, like his father Ralph Sherman, has done so over a lifetime. His particular expertise in combinations of Science, Sociopolitics, Religion, Advocacy, personal and sociopolitical courage make David M. Sherman an invaluable spokesman for the cause(s) of the LSINJ. David Sherman would add much to the spectrum of diversity of Board Members in the LSINJ which is essential to meeting its primary and core goal while also accommodating and protecting the diverse and ancillary interests represented by its Board Members! In his multiple educational, administrative, philosophical and scientific roles David Sherman brings a unique combination of skills and contributions to the scientific and administrative dimensions of the LSINJ. We look forward to the continued vigor of our interactions.

Biosketch:   Dr. Shishir Singh is currently working as a postdoctoral research scientist in the area of novel biotherapies where he works on live therapeutics, gut microbiome, and stem cell therapy in Crohn's disease at the Department of Gastroenterology, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, United States.

Dr. Singh has experience in molecular biology, immunology, molecular parasitology, genetic engineering, host-pathogen interaction, and Microbiology. He received an international scholarship named DAAD PhD fellowship in 2016 for his PhD education at the University of Freiburg in Germany. He was credited with all India rank 61 at CSIR-NET/LS in 2015, GATE scholarship in 2013 and BITSAT selection in 2013.

Before his post-doctoral research at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Dr Singh attained his university degrees and made scientific contributions in India and Germany. He received a bachelor’s degree in biotechnology from Amity University Uttar Pradesh, India; and a master’s degree also in biotechnology from Birla Institute of Technology & Science, Pilani, India. After his master’s education, he received a scholarship from DAAD Germany to pursue his PhD education from the University of Freiburg in the area of molecular parasitology and immunology. There he joined the Department of Medical Microbiology and Hygiene and researched mainly on a parasite named Toxoplasma gondii. In 2021 he finished his PhD with thesis titled “Co-evolution of Toxoplasma gondii virulence effectors and host resistance GTPases”. During his time as a PhD student, he gave multiple seminars, presented at conferences, and worked with many collaborators from different parts of Europe.

Currently, Dr Singh is deciphering how gut microbiome and its products may play a positive role in the treatment of Crohn's patients undergoing stem cell therapy at Mount Sinai Hospital. His lab is also involved in identifying the science behind how stem cells play a role in healing Crohn's patients.

Dr. Singh's work on protozoans such as T. gondii stem cells and gut biology/microbiome in pathological and homeostasis conditions hold promise for the mission of the LSINJ. It is known that protozoans such as Tetrahymena thermophila and Trypanosome cruzii display versatile genic and/or genomic responses to immunological, metabolic and environmental pressures. Including molecular responses such as exon shuffling into telomeres, genomic/chromosoimal diminution and chromosome breakages, followed by extrachromosomal amplification of rDNA. This presents a vast opportunity for exploring multifactorial evolutionary qualifications to the power of contemporary approaches. They open up explorations of essential scientific dimensions in keeping with the policies of the LSINJ in preempting genetic disease lesions

On a wider note, perhaps, we can consider the necessity of ameliorating the consequences of qualifications to Global Health Research Policies. As well as the role of the LSINJ, and in anticipation of that of Dr. Shishir Singh, in eventually bringing meaningful resolution to this matter. One that is of unparalleled significance to the Public Interest. The LSINJ has identified and promoted a system for the resolution of the contradiction of much progress with simultaneous retrograde perpetuation of recurrence of genetic disease states. It does so through its core mission of preempting genetic diseases and birth defects with an approach that is integrative, namely CA RTO based control of the Mutome. Although, with the approach of the LSINJ, the analytical power of contemporary methods does have a significant and complementary role to be played in bringing relevance to basic research in healthcare. However, there is an absence of integration into Medicine of a relevant and necessary principle of Evolutionary Genetics conferring contextual and mechanistic relevance on the powers of contemporary methods. This absence is revelatory since it spans approximately 150 years since the articulation of this principle. The absence of integration of these indispensable and complementary approaches also indicates necessities for ameliorating lapses in traditional educational trajectories in Biomedical Research and Medicine.  

Dr. Singh has much to contribute to the Life Sciences Institute of New Jersey in both tangible as well as intangible ways. These include cross-cultural experience gained in India and online on several continents. All of which are of large significance for an institute such as the LSINJ. An institute which by definition, not only has an international membership, but one that is globally located.

Ms. Mahajan has been committed to research and science, specifically based on her keen interest in Biotechnology. At Shoolini University, her primary research focus is on wastewater management and treatment. However, she considers this as an intermediary step to specializing in the fields of Genetics and Cancer Biology, where she hopes to make significant contributions.

In expanding her horizons with explorative knowledge, Ms. Mahajan has completed numerous certifications in various fields of biotechnology. This has exposed her to a spectrum of specialties with the goal of discovering a calling  within the vast domain of biotechnology.

These pursuits have imparted practical experience through various internships. Notably, in an internship at the Central Potato Research Institute (CPRI) in Shimla, where I engaged in intensive work on potato varieties involving multiple approaches to the analyses of DNA. Currently, Ms. Mahajan is honing her skills as a Research Analyst under the guidance of Dr. Shazveen Saleem at TechMed Consulting.

The academic achievements of Ms. Mahajan were recognized with the award of a silver elite medal for her stellar performance in the NPTEL exam in Scientific Communication at IIT Kanpur.

Beyond her academic pursuits, Ms. Mahajan has a keen interest in Mandala art, watching real-life documentaries, and occasionally dancing. These hobbies provide a creative outlet and a balance to her rigorous academic schedule.

Beyond her focus on studies in scientific principles and experimental research, she hopes to contribute meaningfully to society by addressing contemporary challenges. Given her dedication making this impact while promoting progress in the field of Biotechnology, is well within plausible expectations.’

Perhaps predictably Ms. Hitakshi Mahajan has acquired experience in major universities and research centers culminating in an impressive series of qualifications. They are listed on her profile in LinkedIn.

Ms. Hitakshi Mahajan has much to contribute to the LSINJ in both tangible as well as intangible ways. These include cross-cultural leadership with experience gained in India and the USA. The LSINJ is an institute which by definition not only has an international membership, but one that is globally located.

On a wider note, perhaps we can consider the necessity of ameliorating the consequences of qualifications to Global Health Research and Policies. As well as the role of the LSINJ, and in anticipation, of Ms. Hitakshi Mahajan, B.Sc.., in bringing meaningful resolution to these challenges. As part of its core mission as a nonprofit tax-exempt Private Foundation the LSINJ has identified and promoted a multi-dimensional resolution to the contradiction of much progress in healthcare with a simultaneous and counter-productive lack of application to populations and policy. All of which are exacerbated by the perpetuation of recurrence of genetic disease pathologies. We anticipate that Ms. Mahajan’s broad background and experience in science, biotechnology and education will facilitate the implementation of these objectives.
