Phytochemicals in Cancer Therapy and Beyond

Dr. Gautam Sethi is a tenured Associate Professor in Department of Pharmacology, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore. The focus of his research over the past few years has been to elucidate the mechanism(s) of activation of oncogenic transcription factors by carcinogens and inflammatory agents and the identification of novel inhibitors of these proteins for prevention of and therapy for cancer. The findings of his research work have so far resulted several publications in high impact factor peer reviewed journals and many international awards. He also serves as an editorial board member for over more than 15 international journals Dr Milad Ashrafizadeh is a researcher in Sabanci university, Turkey and obtained his degree in field of Veterinary Medicine in 2020. He is an invited scholar in University of Electronic Science & Technology of China. Currently, Milad is an Editorial Board in journal of nanostructure in chemistry (IF= 6.39) and is a review editor in Frontiers journals. He has published review and research articles in international and famous journals in world. Milad has also 4 book chapters. He has published articles in high quality journals including Nanotoday, Coordination Chemistry Reviews, Advanced Science, Carbohydrate Polymers, Journal of Controlled Release and Advances in Colloid and Interface Science, among others. His interests include nanomedicine, application of nanoparticles for drug and gene delivery, targeted cancer therapy, non-coding RNAs in cancer and development of biosensors. Dr. Navid Rabiee, Ph.D., is a leading scientist with over 42,000 citations and an H-index of 72. He integrates molecular and cellular biology with engineering to design advanced medical systems. He is a pioneer in the field of BioInorganic Chemistry with an emphasis on CRISPR delivery with the assistance of inorganic nano-vectors. Also, he is the pioneer in developing high-gravity synthesis methods for porous (in)organic nanomaterials to follow the green chemistry principles, which led to the foundations of a new field called “Green Biomaterials”. With 300+ peer-reviewed articles in top journals (including Nature, Nature Medicine, Advanced Materials, The Lancet), 9 books, and 20+ chapters, his work advances medical treatment and sustainable practices.
