Biography
Jyoti Prakash Tamang is one of the pioneer researchers in microbiology of ethnic fermented foods and beverages of the world focusing on culture-dependent and -independent techniques including next generation sequencing techniques of microbial profiles, their nutritional profiles, biochemistry, technological and health-promoting benefits. He did Post-doctorate research at National Food Research Institute (Tsukuba, Japan) and Institute of Hygiene and Toxicology (Karlsruhe, Germany). He has more than 145 publications with cumulative impact factors of >124 and citation index of >2650 and authored several books from international publishers. He earned national and international recognitions by awards and fellowship such as National Bioscience Award of Department of Biotechnology, Government of India and the United Nations University Women Association-Award, Japan. Prof. Tamang has been teaching in food microbiology and food sciences for 31 years and supervised 10 Ph.D. students, guiding several M.Sc., Ph.D. and Post-doc students. Prof. Tamang will give a presentation on Global fermented foods: Ethno-microbiology to next generation sequencing.
