Kakon Nag, PhD, is a certified Project Management Professional (PMP) in good standing from Project Management Institute (PMI), USA. He is an achiever in high level multidisciplinary education and research – having PhD in Biological Sciences, MSc in Applied Chemistry, and Diploma in Business Administration. He is also a Six Sigma Green Belt (SSGB) certified professional. Dr. Nag has been intensely involved in project management and related knowledge and skill development activities throughout his career. Over the years he has translated his expertise into unique training modules namely, ‘Project-Pro©’ and ‘Project-Man©’ for agile and effective project management functions associated with Biotech, Pharmaceutical, Chemical, and hi-tech manufacturing industries. Currently he has been developing the ‘Person Performance Index’ (2PI©) model, a novel and critical element for agile project management, which will be in service by the fall of 2012 to 2013. ‘2PI©’ will assist project management offices numerically evaluate how the performance of a critical person is affecting the relevant project in real time.
Dr. Nag has worked in active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) industries in mid – to – top level management overseeing numerous projects in business establishment and expansion, plant erection, research and development, and also in operational management. Being engaged in top-level cutting edge academic research project management in Japan and Canada, he has published numbers of high impact fundamental and applied research articles.
Dr. Nag has been awarded several prestigious fellowships for his outstanding performance and contribution in research projects including the Japan Society for Promotion of Science (JSPS) fellowship and Canadian Institute of Health Research (CIHR) fellowship. He is a member of Project Management Institute (PMI), American Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB), and Canadian Society for Forensic Science (CSFS). He also served for the Superior Court of Toronto, Canada as a forensic expert..
Dr. Nag is also currently working as a Visiting Associate Professor in The Department of Biomolecular Engineering of Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan.

Picture Dr. Sultana is a co-founder of ‘R & D Management Solution’, and is a visionary for our scientific projects. She is a down-to-earth person and extremely dedicated for helping our partners for thorough understanding of the technical segments of business projects. The perfect combination of academic and professional expertise made her an extraordinary person for the success of Biotech and Pharmaceutical projects.
After finishing her MSc in Applied Chemistry, she had started her career as a product development project professional in pharmaceutical industry. She had worked in the various level of management position in the quality assurance department of pharmaceutical industries, and was responsible for product development-related projects as well as overall quality assurance. Later, her agile nature motivated her to the advance research in Molecular Genetics to reveal the genetic basis for diseases and drug targets, and she achieved her PhD focused in Developmental Genetics on high note.
Dr. Sultana is an experienced and recognised scientist in Developmental Biology with several top level scientific publications. She had been engaged in execution and management of top-level cutting edge research projects since 2003 in international environment. Her discoveries on heart development significantly benefitted the field. Dr. Sultana’s discovery of one of the earliest heart lineage markers can be extremely advantageous for the quick identification of the heart-producing cells in a developing embryo, and in future might be instrumental for the treatment of developmental defects of embryonic heart. She has also discovered a basic factor related to mitochondrial proliferation that can be used as a marker for mitochondrial stressed condition and aging. Her recent discovery of novel genetic elements that can decide the heart-muscle and body-muscle specific gene expression in vertebrate is extremely important for producing genetically modified animal to satisfy specific needs.
