Doongar R. Chaudhary, was born (1973) at Jodhpur, Rajasthan India and studied soil science and agricultural chemistry at Rajasthan Agriculture University, Bikaner (campus: Udaipur), Rajasthan. He completed his PhD from ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi in 2002. He started his research career from ICAR-Central Soil Salinity Research Institute, Karnal, Haryana and joined CSIR-Central Salt and Marine Chemicals Research Institute, Bhavnagar (Gujarat) in 2004. He is now working as principal scientist in the Division of Plant Omics. Dr. Chaudhary has been awarded BOYSCAST (2008-09) fellowship by Department of Science and Technology (GOI) and visited the School of Environment and Natural Resources, Ohio State University for one year. He has also been awarded Brainpool Fellowship-2015 of Korean Federation of Science and Technology (KOFST) at School of Civil and Environment Engineering, Yonsei University, Seoul, South Korea for 11 months. He has more than 20 years research experience in the field of soil fertility, plant nutrition and soil ecology. His current research interest is rehabilitation of coastal saline soil with halophytes, salt tolerant plant growth promoting rhizobacteria, metagenomics, soil microbial community, nutrient cycling, and biogeochemical processes in the coastal ecosystem. He is involved in the many projects funded by the CSIR, MoES and SERB.
