Profile Summary

B S Chadha worked as Professor in Department of Microbiology, Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar, and retired in 2023 after rendering 33 years of service that included teaching and research. The applicant headed positions as Head of Department, Dean Faculty of Life Sciences, Director Research, Nodal officer (IPR cell) of the university His lab focused on bioprospecting thermophilic fungi for industrially important enzymes and specifically bio-refinery relevant lignocellulolytic CAZYmes. His lab focused on classical strain development tools (mutagenesis, protoplast fusion and heterokaryosis) in addition to system biology approaches (Genomics, proteomics and metabolomics) for developing these strains to achieve high enzyme titers, beside bioprospecting novel genes through cloning and expression, and developing high through put screening assays. He transferred two technologies to BCIL for xylanase production and cellulases and xylanases production strains and technology to Gencrest, Mumbai. He filed 3 patents disclosing novel fungal strains as source of auxiliary enzymes capable of boosting the hydrolytic potential of commercial cellulases. The applicant was also one of the participating investigators in the DBT sponsored National mission mode project on “Screening for Bio-molecules from microbial diversity collected from different ecological niches”, where anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, antibiotic producing microbial strains were prospected through this project and one US patent was filed jointly by DBT, GNDU and Piramal Life Sciences, Mumbai. The application was awarded with DBT CREST fellowship at Concordia University, Montreal, ASM Indo US research professorship award at South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, Rapid City, South Dakota, USA, BBSRC International fellowship at Institute of Food Research, Norwich, UK, Visiting Scientist (NSERC) at Department of Biological Sciences, University of Calgary, Canada. The applicant guided 24 PhD students. He has handled various projects sponsored by DBT, ICAR (AMAAS, NAIP, NF), CSIR, UGC in the area of Industrial biotechnology. The applicant was a member of expert team from DST India to visit Sweden and discuss projects on bioeconomy in August 2014. He has more than 125 publications in high impact peer reviewed international journals to his credit. His work has 6700 citations with h index of 43. He has delivered talks at various international conferences/universities in Australia, Canada, Sweden and USA.
