Overview
Background
Dr. Gulshan Mahajan started his career in agronomy and has worked at Punjab Agricultural University (PAU), Ludhiana, India, for more than 23 years in different capacities and engaged in research, teaching and outreach activities. He also worked in matrix management at UQ, International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) as well and PAU and have interacted across programs, institutes, and regions and developed and implemented programs successfully. He has guided one PhD student, four MSc students as a Principal Advisor and more than 20 students as an Associate Advisor. His interests fall within a broader area of agronomy, regenerative agriculture with particular emphasis on weed science, enhancing input-use efficiency, and developing ecologically based integrated crop management strategies for sustained production. He is a fellow of the National Academy of Agricultural Sciences, India and an Associate Editor of the Weed Science Society of America.
