Short Biography of Prof. Shams

Dr. Shams received BSc (Hon’s) in Forestry and Wood Technology from Khulna University, Bangladesh in 1998. Later he completed his MS and Ph.D in Wood Science and Technology from Kyoto University, Japan under Japanese Government Monbukagakushu scholarship. From 2008-2010 he worked as JSPS Postdoctoral fellow and later 2012-14 working as visiting scientist in Kyoto University, Japan. He was also working as an invited visiting scientist in Royal Institute of Technology Sweden, Nanjing Forestry University, China and Kyoto University Japan. Dr. Shams holds two patents published more than 40 journal articles and attended a good number of conferences in home and abroad. For greater contribution in the field of forest and agricultural science in Bangladesh, he was awarded ‘UGC AWARD 2015’ from University Grants Commission of Bangladesh. His research involves production of biocomposites and extraction of nanofibers from biomass resources and their utilization for optical and structural purposes. He also handled a good number of funded projects including World Bank sponsored, Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST), Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS), The World Academy of Sciences (TWAS), Ministry of Education, Bangladesh, Ministry of Science and Technology, Bangladesh and so on. He is now working as the professor and Head of Forestry and Wood Technology Discipline, Khulna University, Bangladesh.
