Laishram Rajendrakumar Singh Editor

Dr. Dar received his Master’s in Biochemistry for Hamdard University, New Delhi, India in 2003 and PhD in Biosciences from Jamia Millia Islamia, New Delhi in 2009. After completing his doctorate, he joined as post-doctorate in Prof. Bruce Bowler’s lab at the University of Montana, Missoula, USA. He is currently an Associate Professor at the Department of Clinical Biochemistry, University of Kashmir, India. His research focus mainly includes modulation of aggregation of globular as well as Intrinsically disordered proteins by chemical chaperones/osmolytes and the structural-functional characterization of biologically active proteins from medicinal plants. He has authored more than 50 publications in both national and international journals of repute in the field of protein biophysics and medicinal plant proteomics. He has also edited four books. Dr. Laishram Rajendrakumar Singh is a Professor at the University of Delhi, India. He obtained his PhD in protein biophysics from Jamia Millia Islamia, New Delhi, and following this continued his postdoctoral research at Fox Chase cancer Center, Philadelphia (FCCC), USA. During his doctoral study he was engaged in investigating how small molecule compounds affect native protein structure, stability and enzymatic catalysis. At FCCC his main research interest encompasses understanding the proteiostasis and modulators toward the functional restoration of disease-causing pathogenic protein variants. Currently Dr. Singh is working on understanding the molecular insights of proteopathy and developing small molecule compounds for various toxic protein inclusions associated with neurodegenerative diseases. He has more than 75 publications to his credit in various international journals of repute. He is also guest editor and editorial member of various international journals.
