Bio:

Himanshu Mishra is an interdisciplinary scholar (rank: Associate Professor) at KAUST, where his research team specializes in probing the physics, chemistry, and biology of alkaline sandy soils of Saudi Arabia. His group has developed two innovative technologies - CarboSoil™ and SandX™ - to enable sustainable greening and agriculture in deserts. He co-founded Terraxy LLC to commercialize these solutions, which are now contributing to sustainability projects in Saudi Arabia and beyond. Mishra's impactful work has been recognized at prestigious platforms like the Geneva Inventions Awards and the World Economic Forum.
