Assoc. Prof. Dr. Krishna Pada Das | Mathematical Modeling in Ecology | Best Researcher Award

Mahadevananda Mahavidyalaya | India

Dr. Krishna Pada Das, Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Mahadevananda Mahavidyalaya, Barrackpore, India, is a highly accomplished researcher in the field of mathematical biology and dynamical systems. He holds a B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Mathematics from the University of Calcutta and a Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics from Jadavpur University under the guidance of Prof. Joydev Chattopadhyay of the Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata. His research focuses on predator-prey interactions, plankton dynamics, eco-epidemiological models, and HIV progression, using advanced mathematical tools such as fractional calculus, spatio-temporal dynamics, diffusion processes, delay differential equations, and stochastic analysis. Beginning his career as a Research Fellow at the Indian Statistical Institute, he has since dedicated over a decade to teaching, mentoring, and research leadership at Mahadevananda Mahavidyalaya. His outstanding contributions are evident from his 76 publications, 401 citations across 327 documents, and h-index of 13, as indexed in Scopus. Dr. Krishna Pada Das has published extensively in reputed international journals, including Ecological Modelling, Bio Systems, Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems, and International Journal of Biomathematics, with his works being widely cited and appreciated by the global research community. He has been honored with the ISI Research Award (2006) and qualified the SLET (WBCSC) in 2006, underscoring his academic and research excellence. His innovative approaches to understanding nonlinear dynamics, stability, bifurcation, chaos, and control in biological systems have provided valuable insights for both theoretical and applied research, establishing him as a distinguished scholar and a strong candidate for the Best Researcher Award.
