Asim K. Duttaroy Faculty of Medicine, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway. Dr. Asim K. Duttaroy is a professor at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway. His research programs focus on the roles of food components on growth and development, as well as in the prevention of diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. He is also investigating the roles of the antiplatelet and antihypertensive properties of fruits and vegetables. His discoveries of antithrombotic factors in tomatoes and kiwifruits are patented internationally, and three companies (Provexis Limited in the United Kingdom, IDIA AS in Norway, and Genimen Pharmacon in India) are working to commercialize these discoveries. He has published over 265 original contributions and reviews, 6 books, and several book chapters and editorials, and he is the Editor-in-Chief of the journal Food & Nutrition Research, as well as a guest editor of several journals such as Nutrients and Frontiers in Physiology. Rahul Mallick Researcher, University of Eastern Finland, Finland. Dr. Rahul Mallick graduated in medicine from Chittagong University, Bangladesh. He obtained his master's degree in Medical Biology from Link�ping University, Sweden. Currently, he is working as a researcher at the University of Eastern Finland, Finland and his main research interest includes gene expression concerning cardiac remodeling. In addition, he is investigating the issues of regaining cardiac function by introducing an experimental technique that uses genes instead of drugs or surgery to treat or prevent diseases or disorders.
He serves as the editorial board member of the peer-reviewed journal Food & Nutrition Research and is collaborating with Prof. Duttaroy on several projects during the last few years.
