He is currently senior Assistant Professor at N N Saikia College, affiliated with Dibrugarh University, Assam, India [Since 2012]. His research focus is on plant- microbiome interactions, biosurfactants, persistent organic and inorganic pollutants, sustainable remediation, molecular breeding, CRISPR/cas9 gene editing and nanobiotechnology. Important contributions were made to the bioremediation of emerging contaminants [ECs], endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) and persistent organic pollutants (POPs). Dr. Sarma has more than 50 publications to his name in peer-reviewed international journals, including conference papers and book chapters, and patents that have been published or are pending. He is the author of five books by leading international publishers John Wiley and Sons, UK and Springer Nature, USA and Elsevier USA. Dr. Sarma has contributed to the peer review process of several high-impact journals [ACS, Elsevier, Springer]. He is a review editor of Frontiers in Microbiology and the series editor of Advances in Biotechnology and Bioengineering' Elsevier INC, Cambridge, MA 02139. Dr. Sarma has 10 years of teaching experience, completed 04 research projects sponsored by the Department of Biotechnology, the Government of India and the University Grants Commission, New Delhi. He has received several awards, distinctions and fellowships, such as DBT-Overseas Associateship [2015-16] and DBT-Research Associateship [2011-12], IISc Research Associateship [2009] and UGC-Dr. DS Kothari Postdoctoral Fellowship Awards [2009-10]. In 2017-18, Dr. Sarma joined as an Affiliate in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Texas, El Paso, USA, in a Visitor Professor Fellowship Program. He has received a foreign travel fellowship and has visited many reputed universities for academic purpose. Cairo University, Giza, Egypt in 2011, University of Western Australia, Perth, 2016, and Hamburg University, Germany in 2016, and University of Texas at El Paso, 2017-18.

Dr. Sonam Gupta obtained her Ph.D. from Department of Biotechnology, IIT Roorkee in 2019. Currently, she is working as a lecturer at the Department of Biotechnology, NIT Raipur, India from the past two years. She has got merit first rank in her masters and awarded with gold medal from Guru Ghasidas Vishwavidyalaya Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh. She availed GATE 2012 and prestigious DST-INSPIRE fellowship for pursuing PhD. During her PhD tenure, she worked on the biomedical applications of a surface-active glycolipid in terms of anticancer, antibiofilm, wound healing and antiulcer activities. She has developed skills on different molecular biology and microbiology techniques such as Fluorescence microscopy and Reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction, microbroth dilution assay, surface-tension reducing assay, XTT assay, DNA/RNA isolation, cDNA synthesis and animal handlings for in vivo experiments. She has also awarded with "Young Appreciation Award" with One Lakh Rupee grant by SRISTI-BIRAC, Ahmedabad for grassroot innovative practice. Her research interests include biomedical applications of biosurfactants, studies on Candida  biofilm, quorum sensing, and nanomaterials and her work was published in reputed journals.
