Notă biografică
Dr. Mohd Aaqib Sheikh (M.Tech., Ph.D.) is currently serving as Assistant Professor at Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology, Patiala, Punjab, India. He holds a Ph.D. in Food Engineering and Technology and an M.Tech. in Food Process Engineering, establishing a strong academic foundation in food science and process engineering. He further advanced his research training through a National Post-Doctoral Fellowship at the National Institute of Technology, Rourkela, Odisha. Prior to his current appointment, Dr. Sheikh served as Assistant Professor in the Department of Food Technology at Eternal University, Baru Sahib, Himachal Pradesh, where he contributed to teaching, research, and academic development. His work has been recognized through competitive national fellowships, including the National Post-Doctoral Fellowship from the Science and Engineering Research Board (SERB), Government of India, and the Senior Research Fellowship awarded by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), New Delhi. These distinctions reflect his contributions to research in food science, particularly in the area of sustainable plant-based systems. Dr. Sheikh’s research focuses on key areas within contemporary food science, including agro-waste utilization, detoxification of industrial by-products, extraction and functional modification of plant proteins, product development, and biodegradable packaging materials. His work is directed toward improving resource efficiency and supporting sustainable food systems. He has authored 30 research and review articles in peer-reviewed journals and contributed 13 book chapters published by Elsevier, CRC Press, and Springer. In addition, he serves as a reviewer for several scientific journals, contributing to the evaluation and dissemination of scholarly research.
Dr. Nisar Ahmad Mir (M.Tech., Ph.D.) received his Ph.D. from the Department of Food Engineering and Technology, Sant Longowal Institute of Engineering and Technology (Deemed to Be University, under the Ministry of Education, Government of India). Currently, he is an assistant professor in the Department of Food Technology, Islamic University of Science and Technology, Awantipora, Jammu & Kashmir. He received a National Post-Doctoral Fellowship from the Science and Engineering Research Board, Department of Science and Technology, Government of India. His research interests focus on cereal and pseudocereal protein characterization, modification, and their applications in food systems. He has published more than 20 research and review articles. He has also published more than 15 book chapters with publishers, including Apple Academic Press, Springer, and Elsevier.

Descriere
Prunus fruits are categorized as drupes or stone fruits. The fleshy mesocarp surrounding the pit is edible, and within this pit lies the kernel, which is a rich source of nutrients and phytochemicals. This book explores the sustainability of nutrient-dense prunus kernels and offers practical insights, case studies, and expert perspectives.
