He was a nominated member of the National Academy of Sciences, India, and was an executive and life member of the Indian Society for Parasitology. He was an adjudicatory person and was aboard member of several universities and colleges in India and abroad. Professor Bandyopadhyay’s latest research pertained to fish diseases and their plant-based control measures. He and his team isolated and characterized the bioactive compound, oleic acid, from Carica papaya seed and used the product as aqua-soluble drug in treating fish bacterial disease invivo. He had published more than 170 research articles on animal taxonomy. Dr. Nitisranjan Das is a guest professor in the postgraduate section of Serampore College, Serampore, West Bengal, India. He graduated and completed his Ph.D. from the University of Calcutta as a “Presidencian” under the guidance of Late Dr. H. N. Ray. He has worked as an assistant research officer with the Indian Council of Medical Research, New Delhi, from 1965 to 1970 at Presidency College, Calcutta, before he moved to Serampore College in 1970 as a lecturer. He became head of the department in 1995 as a reader and retired in 2001. Dr. Das was elected to the board of management of the Serampore College in 1998 and served the college as the bursar. He hasbeen bestowed a number of special honors and has availed distinction from different organizations and institutions. Dr. Das is a fellow of the Zoological Society of India and the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, London. He was also a resource person of the National Council of Educational Research and Training, New Delhi, India, for more than ten years. He has written a number of reference books on parasitology, wild life, embryology and treatment of tropical diseases published from Calcutta, West Germany, London and Poland. Dr. Amit Chattopadhyay is an assistant professor in the Department of Zoology for UG and PG studies at Serampore College. He has completed M.Sc.in zoology and Ph.D. in the molecular basis of vector biology. Dr. Chattopadhyay joined the Serampore College in the year 2009 and served as head of the Department of zoology. Presently, he is the PG course coordinator for the Department of Zoology. He has been conferred with the Young Scientist of the Year 2016 award by the International Foundation for Environment and Ecology and Confederation of Indian Universities, New Delhi.
