Bharat Singh, PhD, FBS, is working as Professor in the Amity Institute of Biotechnology, Amity University Rajasthan, Jaipur. His doctoral research was with Professor S. C. Jain and dealt with isolation and characterization of secondary metabolites as well as their pharmacological investigations from medicinal plants. He did his postdoctoral work at the Department of Botany, University of Rajasthan, Jaipur, India. His research at the Department dealt with the investigation of pharmacological potentials from Strobilanthes callosus. His current research focuses on ethnopharmacology, phytochemistry, plant cell culture engineering and biotization strategies to increase the production of bioactive secondary metabolites in plants. By using plant cell culture engineering, the author has increased the production of secondary metabolites 5-8-fold higher than intact plants.

He has more than 20 years of teaching and research experience. He has been teaching the courses of Phytochemistry, Plant Cell Culture Engineering, Plant Biotechnology, Genetics, Molecular Biology, and Agricultural Biotl#"
