About

I grew up in Kharagpur and studied chemistry through B.Sc. at Scottish Church College, M.Sc. at IIT Kharagpur, and a Ph.D. at IACS Jadavpur under Prof. Abhishek Dey, studying electrocatalysis for water splitting and CO₂ reduction. I completed postdoctoral research with Prof. Shannon Stahl at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and with Prof. Menny Shalom at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. I joined IIT Gandhinagar in September 2021, where my lab focuses on (photo)-electrocatalysis for energy and biomass conversion.
