Biography

M Zabed Hossain obtained B.Sc. (Honors) and M. Sc. (with thesis) degrees from the Department of Botany, University of Dhaka. Currently, he has been serving as Professor in the same department. He obtained Ph. D. from UGAS, Iwate University, Japan and conducted Post-Doctoral research at SLU, Uppsala, Sweden. He obtained several awards including Guest Research Scholarship from Swedish Institute of the Swedish Government for post-doctoral research, Monbukagakusho Scholarship of the Government of Japan for Ph.D., National Science and Technology Fellowship from the Government of Bangladesh for M.Sc. research, ICGEB (International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology) grant for attending training program in New Delhi, India. He has more than 20 years of experience of research and teaching on Plant Ecology, Plant Molecular Ecology, Ecosystem Ecology and Environmental Science. His current research interests focus on adaptation of plants, ecology of invasive plants and plant-microbe interactions in relation to abiotic stresses such as salinity, drought and heavy metals. He published more than 50 scientific papers.
