Shahjahan Shabbir Ahmed Rana

My research interests mainly lie in gene cloning and developing transgenic plants for better adaptation and utilization. I have worked on cellulose and pectin degradation enzymes in growing fruits for better post-harvest handling and marketing. I am good at various molecular techniques like Gene Cloning, Vector Construction, Primer Designing, PCR, Gel Electrophoresis, Photo-spectrometry, Use of Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), Competent cells development, Enzymes assay, In-vitro plant propagation, Gene transformation, Southern blotting, Gene validation in transgenic organisms, HPLC, documenting biodiversity via molecular techniques, etc. In the realm of science advanced farm mechanization techniques like regenerative and precision agriculture could not be denied. I am deeply interested to work in such areas of research in the near future but a holistic approach that add values to biodiversity. Dr. Shahjahan is the author of several research papers published in peer reviewed journals. He has also written few chapters of books relevant to natural sciences.
