OverviewAI-generated summary

Soumen Nandy's research focuses on plant genetics and molecular biology, with a particular emphasis on rice (Oryza sativa). His work utilizes advanced genetic engineering tools, including CRISPR/Cas9 technology, to study and modify gene expression in plants. Nandy investigates the function of specific genes, such as those related to the TOR and SnRK1 pathways, and vacuolar proton pumps, aiming to enhance traits like grain quality and yield. His research also explores methods for efficient multigene transformation in rice, employing techniques like Cre-lox mediated site-specific integration. Nandy has published 21 papers, accumulating 365 citations, and holds an h-index of 9. He collaborates with researchers from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville and the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, including Vibha Srivastava and Mariya V. Khodakovskaya.
