Dr. Alsafran obtained his PhD at Newcastle University, UK and Currently, he is an Associate Professor and the Director of the Agricultural Research Station (ARS) at Qatar University. He has an interdisciplinary research background, and his areas of research interest include phytochemistry, sustainable dryland agriculture, plant stress Physiology, biodiversity, and ecosystems. Dr. Alsafran has many scientific researches published internationally in his field of specialization as well as he has strongly participated in many research projects and grants as Principle Investigator or Co-Principle Investigator.
Dr. Lei is currently an assistant director of the MU metabolomics center and an assistant research professor of biochemistry. He obtained his Ph.D. from Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA, USA in 2002, and then took a postdoctoral research fellow position at the Noble Research Institute in Ardmore, OK, USA, where he was promoted to a Research Scientist three years later. He moved to the University of Missouri (MU) in 2016 to direct a Metabolomics Center. Dr. Lei is an experienced researcher in phytochemistry and natural products. He applied advanced liquid and gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (LC/GC-MS) to chemically characterize different phytochemicals in various plant species. He has the expertise and hands-on experience in LC/GC-MS-based metabolomics including experimental design, data collection, data processing, data analysis, and interpretation, library, and database construction. He has published over 60 peer-reviewed manuscripts.
