About Nirmalya Halder
I am a passionate researcher and educator in the field of Biotechnology and Microbiology, specifically Algal Biotechnology, with a vision to harness the potential of algae and seaweed for sustainable living. I believe in translating scientific discoveries into practical applications that benefit society and the environment. As a Research Fellow of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, Govt. of India, I am currently working at Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology, Patiala, Punjab. My research project is an industry-academia collaboration that aims to develop innovative solutions for utilizing lipid-extracted microalgal biomass. I also enjoy teaching and mentoring undergraduate and postgraduate students on various topics and projects related to industrial biotechnology. Previously, I have gained one year of industrial experience in the algal industry, where I worked on optimizing the bioprocesses for algal nutraceuticals production and quality control of the final product. In addition, I am also part of two start-ups: Soil Biocare Agrotech, which makes Biofertilizers (Cyanobacterial and bacterial nitrogen fixers, Phosphate solubilizers), Bio-composter and Bio-compost, and Thinkwave Technologies LLP, which creates real-time soil NPK content analyzers, wearable pollution control mask and aquaculture water parameter controlling systems. I am always eager to learn new skills and explore new opportunities in the exciting field of Algal Biotechnology, broadly in the field of Biotechnology. In the near future, I aspire to work with firms that are involved in developing and marketing Algae/Seaweed products for various applications.
