Assist. Prof. Dr. Tanmay Sanyal | Biodiversity and Conservation | Zoology Honour Award

Assistant Professor | Krishnagar Government College | India 

Dr. Tanmay Sanyal’s research integrates zoology, ecology, and environmental science, with a strong emphasis on Fish and Fisheries, Aquatic Toxicology, Limnology, and Biodiversity Conservation. His investigations into the bioaccumulation of heavy metals, particularly chromium, in aquatic organisms have significantly advanced understanding of the ecological and physiological effects of industrial pollutants on freshwater ecosystems. Through his studies, he has explored mechanisms of toxicity, metabolic alterations, and adaptive responses in aquatic fauna, offering critical insights into ecosystem resilience and pollution management. Beyond toxicology, his research encompasses ecological monitoring, water quality assessment, and the sustainable management of fishery resources. Dr. Sanyal’s interdisciplinary approach bridges environmental chemistry, zoology, and sustainability studies, addressing global challenges related to water pollution, biodiversity loss, and environmental health while aligning with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on clean water, life below water, and sustainable communities. He has published extensively in high-impact international journals, including Computers in Biology and Medicine, Journal of Advanced Research, and Human and Ecological Risk Assessment, along with numerous book chapters on environmental management and sustainable development. His scholarly contributions have deepened scientific understanding of aquatic ecosystems, informed environmental policy, and supported conservation efforts. Through his research, Dr. Sanyal continues to promote environmental stewardship, advocating for evidence-based strategies to mitigate pollution, enhance sustainability, and preserve aquatic biodiversity for future generations.

Assist. Prof. Dr. Mona Maze | Environmental Studies | Best Researcher Award

Assistant Professor | Agricultural Research Center | Egypt

Dr. Mona Maze is an Assistant Professor at the Agricultural Research Center, Central Laboratory for Agricultural Climate in Egypt, and an accomplished scholar in agricultural sciences with expertise in climate change, plant nutrition, data-driven agriculture, and digital innovation for sustainable farming. She earned her Ph.D. in Plant Nutrition from the Technical University of Munich, where she developed predictive models for wheat performance under water stress and climate change, building on an M.Sc. in Plant Ecology from Cairo University and a B.Sc. in Science from Ain Shams University, further strengthened by advanced training in computer science, machine learning, and spatial data science. Her professional career spans Egypt and Germany, including roles at the Bavarian State Research Center for Agriculture, where she advanced renewable energy and sustainability projects, and leadership in national and USAID-funded projects that integrate artificial intelligence, remote sensing, and big data into agricultural systems. She has spearheaded initiatives such as Egypt’s Digital Dynamic Agricultural Map and web-based decision support tools for irrigation, fertilization, and crop protection, in collaboration with leading organizations including Microsoft and ESRI. Dr. Maze’s research focuses on climate change impacts on agriculture, greenhouse gas mitigation, precision farming, and the integration of AI with ecological modeling, contributing significantly to Egypt’s greenhouse gas inventory and advancing climate-smart agriculture practices. With a distinguished record of publications, international collaborations, and technology-driven solutions that enhance resilience and productivity, she exemplifies innovative leadership at the intersection of environmental science and digital transformation, making her a strong candidate for recognition.
