lt;b>Dr. Juganta K. Roy is a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Jackson State University (JSU), Mississippi, USA. He received his Ph.D. in Chemistry from JSU, Mississippi, USA, in 2018. Dr. Roy completed his M.S. and B.Sc. studies in Applied Chemistry & Chemical Technology from the University of Dhaka, Bangladesh, in 2008 and 2006, respectively. Since 2012 he has been working as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Applied Chemistry & Chemical Engineering, Noakhali Science & Technology University, Bangladesh. His research primarily focuses on the design of optoelectronic materials with the use of different in-silico approaches like QSAR analysis, molecular dynamics simulation of polymeric materials, and electronic structure calculations.   Dr. Supratik Kar is a Postdoctoral Research Associate in JSU, Mississippi, USA. He completed his B.Pharm. (2008) and M.Pharm. (2010) degree in Jadavpur University (JU), India, securing the first position in both degrees. He earned his Ph.D. (2015) from JU, India. He is a former Visiting Researcher from the University of Gdansk, Poland, under the Marie Curie research fellowship. He has over ten years' experience in QSAR, machine learning, and chemometric modeling studies in the field of drug design, toxicity prediction, and physicochemical property modeling. To this date, he has published over 70 research and review articles, 18 book chapters, and 2 QSAR textbooks. He is acting as a Reviewer for 50 peer-reviewed journals and has performed over 230 reviews. Prof. Jerzy Leszczynski is Professor of Chemistry and President's Distinguished Fellow at JSU, Mississippi, USA. His research activities include studies of the nature of chemical bonds, theoretical predictions of molecular potential energy surfaces, structures of weakly bonded complexes, properties of DNA fragments, interactions of explosives with soil, properties, and toxicity of nanomaterials.
