Synopsis

Efforts are being made by research organizations and cosmetic industries worldwide to develop more precise and targeted 3D models that mimic humans for testing cosmetic and personal health care product ingredients, following a complete ban on animal testing. This book includes several subtopics dedicated to the progress made, challenges faced, roadblocks encountered, and future prospects in the development and validation of 3D models for testing these products. The book consist of an editorial and 14 themed chapters that will showcase the significant progress made so far, challenges encountered, and future prospects in the development of 3D reconstruct models.

Dr Ashish Dwivedi is graduated from CSIR-Indian Institute of Toxicology Research, Lucknow, India, in the area of Photobiology and Phototoxicology. Thereafter, he enriched himself in the same domain of research as Post-Doctoral Fellow at Israel Institute of Technology, Israel; Colorado University, USA, and Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, India. Based on his outstanding research experience, he got an opportunity to join back to his parenteral research organization-CSIR-IITR, where he is currently serving as a Scientist in the System Toxicology & Health Risk Assessment Group. In a decade-long research career, Dr Dwivedi has established himself as one among the pioneers in the area of phototoxicity/ photosafety with special reference to the photsafety of therapeutic agents, nanotized phytochemicals, environmental pollutants, etc. Besides the laboratory work, he has also been involved in fostering contemporary science to Post-Graduate, PhD students, researchers, and university teachers. Dr Dwivedi's research efforts have been rewarding in terms of the quantifiable number of research publications in journals of high repute. He has also edited three books for Springer Nature in the area of Photoprotection, Skin Aging, and Neuroprotection. He is a member of various scientific societies, to name a few are- Society of Toxicology, USA, American Society for Photobiology, USA, Indian Photobiology Society, India, Society of Toxicology, India, etc.

Professor Ratan Singh Ray is a Chief Scientist & Head, Photobiology Division at CSIR-Indian Institute of Toxicology Research, Lucknow, India. He is one of the founders who established a new discipline of Photobiology/ Phototoxicity in the country. His active research career of over three decades in the area of Photobiology made him instrumental as a resource person in the Bureau of Indian Standards for the formulation/ revision of several standards for cosmetics and personal health care products. His research group is credited for creating the complete spectrum of UV-A, UV-B and UV-C radiation falling on the earth's surface at latitude- Longitude 26.8467° N, 80.9462° E for over twenty years. Such dedicated and sustained efforts in creating this database have created immense wealth for the scientific fraternity working in this area of research, industries involved in the production and R & D of cosmetic and personal health care products, and regulatory agencies. He has supervised more than a dozen students for PhD, several post-doctoral fellows and post-graduate students. He is also rendering his intellectual inputs and expertise to various scientific societies and government agencies, such as the Bureau of Indian Standards, India, American Society for Photobiology, USA, Indian Photobiology Society, India, Society of Toxicology, India. His research is highly cited in the scientific literature as evidenced by a Google Scholar Score of over 2000 with an H-Index of 28. He is currently coordinating several investigator-driven research grants from different national funding agencies in the country.

Dr Anurag Tripathi is working as Principal Scientist in CSIR-Indian Institute of Toxicology Research. He did his Ph.D from School of Biotechnology, Banaras Hindu University, on Immunomodulatory effects of Prolactin and Growth hormone on macrophages. His work contributes to an in-depth understanding of the immunomodulatory, immunosuppressive effects of common food additives, drugs and cosmetic ingredients. He has also worked on the tumorigenic potential of mycotoxins and the molecular mechanisms leading to skin cancer. Dr Tripathi has over sixteen years of research experience and published 50 articles in peer reviewed international journals such as Immunology, MolecularImmunology, Molecular Aspects of Medicine, Toxicology Letters, ACS Nano, Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology etc. His publications are well cited with an H-index of 25. He is a life member of Indian Nanoscience Society and serves as an editorial board member in several prestigious international journals such as Journal of Immunology & Serum Biology, SM Journal of Nanotechnology and Nanomedicine, Journal of Toxicology and Forensic cases and Austin Immunology.

Dr Atul Kumar Upadhyay received his PhD degree in Life Sciences from National Centre for Biological Sciences (NCBS), Bangalore; Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Mumbai, in 2015.

Dr Shiv Poojan is currently holding the position of Scientist at Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center, Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, PA, USA. He is a research graduate from CSIR-Indian Institute of Toxicology Research, Lucknow, India. His early research was focused on deciphering the mechanistic incites of arsenic-induced developmental toxicity, genetic alteration and carcinogenicity in a mouse stem cell-derived 3D reconstructed model of skin. Then he moved to the National Cancer Center (NCC), South Korea, as a post-doctoral fellow, where he culminated a task of developing the target-specific stable transformations in healthy and cancerous iPSCs to read across the customized changes in epigenetic profiling and genomic sequences, hence could be utilized to identify the drug resistance genes. For the past several years, he has been working on a rare genetic disease epidermolysis bullosa with a specific aim to identify suitable inhibitors to reduce cancer development in the RDEBSCC patients and to understand RDEB squamous cell carcinoma development. In acknowledgment of his outstanding research acumens, he has been awarded 'Carl Storm International Diversity Fellowship' at Gordon Research Conference (GRC), Italy (2013), and'Rambhau Kulkerny Best Scientist Award' at Indian Association of Cancer Research (2010). He has come up with a good number of research papers in diversified journals of high impact, to name a few are- Nature's Scientific Reports, Experimental and Molecular Medicine, PLOS-ONE, Mutagenesis, Rheumatology, Cell Biology International, Histology, and Histopathology, etc.
