Catalysis for clean energy conversion Nanomaterials Porous hybrid materials
略歴
After receiving my Ph. D. (Supervisor: Prof. Asim Bhaumik) at Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science (IACS), India in 2012, I moved to USA to pursue postdoctoral studies under Prof. Alexandra Navrotsky at University of California, Davis. In October 2013, I started another postdoctoral research under Prof. Kazuhiro Takanabe at KAUST Catalysis Center, KSA. Since July, 2017 to December, 2018, I worked as an Assistant Professor on contract at Central University of Tamil Nadu, India. Then I was associated with research at IACS for couple of months. I aim to develop robust and efficient catalyst for clean energy conversion.
WRHIへの期待
Being a researcher in this highly esteemed Tokyo Tech World Research Hub Initiative (WRHI), I expect to have better platform with world class research infrastructure for conducting research on recent global challenges related to renewable energy landscape and sustainable environment. Active collaboration with global leaders in these fields will indeed enable us to achieve the perspectives of the present WRHI, and make it as a global hub for relevant research and technology development.
