Ghulam Abbas Shah received his Ph.D. from Wageningen University, the Netherlands. Currently, he is working as an assistant professor in the Department of Agronomy at PMAS-Arid Agriculture University, Pakistan. His research focuses on plant nutrient management, agro-nanotechnology, and the development of slow-release fertilisers aiming to improve nutrient efficiency and reducing environmental impact. His expertise extends to exploring the role of nanomaterials in enhancing nutrient delivery and crop production, as well as quantifying the toxic effects of various nanoparticles including plastics on the soil-plant interface. In addition, he is involved in nano-biochar application, composting, and organic waste management, all of which contribute to improved soil health and crop productivity. To date, he has published 44 impact factor articles (total impact factor = 193.2) and 5 non-impact factor publications. The findings of his research contribute directly to improving agricultural efficiency while minimising ecological footprints, aligning with global sustainability goals. He has contributed 28 abstracts, 6 poster presentations, and 13 oral presentations. He has led one project as PI and collaborated on three as Co-PI, with two proposals recently shortlisted for national funding. Additionally, he is a recipient of the "Overseas MS leading to PhD scholarship" awarded by HEC Pakistan in collaboration with NUFFIC, the Netherlands.
