Dr. Harish Kumar is currently working as Associate Professor at National Institute of Technology Delhi. He has more than 18 years of research and academic experience and served as Scientist at different grades in CSIR—National Physical Laboratory, India (NPLI). He has been Active Researcher in the area of mechanical measurement and metrology. He has worked as Guest Researcher at National Institute of Standards and Technology, USA, in 2016. He has been instrumental in ongoing redefinition of kilogram in India. He has authored more than 100 publications in peer-reviewed journals and conferences. He is Active Researcher in the area of additive manufacturing. He has served as Guest Editor of different journals and conference proceedings volumes including Mapan—Journal of Metrology Society of India, Materials Today: Proceedings (Elsevier), Lecture Notes in Mechanical Engineering (Springer), Smart Innovation, Systems and Technologies (Springer), Advanced Science, Engineering and Medicine (American Scientific Publishers), etc. He has been serving as Associate Editor of the Mapan—Journal of Metrology Society of India. 

Dr. Prashant K Jain is currently Professor at Department of Mechanical Engineering, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Design and Manufacturing, Jabalpur. He obtained his B.E. (Mechanical Engineering) from Dr. H. S. Gour University, Sagar, M.E. (Advanced Production Systems) from SATI, Vidisha, and Ph.D. from Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, Delhi. He also has served at IIT Delhi as Project Scientist and at Delhi College of Engineering, Delhi (now Delhi Technological University, Delhi) as Lecturer. His major research interests include rapid prototyping /additive manufacturing, geometric modeling, CAD/CAM integration, computational geometry, rapid prototyping, and tooling. He has more than 85 publications to his credit, published in international peer-reviewed journals, and national and international conferences in India and abroad.

Dr. Saurav Goel, FHEA, CEng, is a Professor at London South Bank University (LSBU) and Associate Director of the EPSRC NetworkPlus in Digitalised Surface Manufacturing (EP/S036180/1). He is Visiting Professor at IIT Guwahati and Shiv Nadar University in India. He is also Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and Chartered Engineer. His thematic research on “Material Oriented Manufacturing” at the confluent of experiments and atomic modeling focuses on creating socially responsible STEM professionals and to deploy the use of science for the benefit of society. He started working toward this mission by implementing new EDI policies in the Centre of Doctoral Training in Ultra-Precision (EP/K503241/1 and EP/L016567/1) at Cranfield University. He is currently a Co-I on three EPSRC research projects, one of which aims to generate affordable healthcare solutions by developing novel heterostructure scintillators as next-generation radiation detectors for the TOF-PET imaging systems (EP/S013652/1). He is also looking at addressing social issues such as gender imbalance in an ODA country like India via a Royal Academy of Engineering (IAPP18-19\295) UK-India collaborative project and has secured the Prestigious Newton Fellowship Award from the Royal Society (NIF\R1\191571) to model the “science of interfaces” in surface manufacturing. More recently, he joined hands with NHS in developing COVID-19-resistant biosafe surfaces for which he secured an Engineering Pandemic Preparedness Award from ^2500 citations (Google Scholar). His research is strongly supported by various industries like Airbus and NPL who have provided him with an EPSRC I Case studentship as well as research organizations like STFC who have part-funded his doctorate students. He is currently maintaining a research group of 10 people (4 PDRA's, 6 Ph.D. students) with 50% gender balance.
