Summary
I am a post doctoral research associate in the group of Christian Holm at ICP. I am a theoretical physical chemist by training. My research interests include condensed phase dynamical processes in chemical physics, physical chemistry of polymer nanoparticle mixture, colloidal suspensions and biology inspired physics.
I did my PhD from the Department of Inorganic and Physical Chemistry, Indian Institute of Science under the supervision of Prof. K . L. Sebastian. I was a Post Doctoral Research Associate in the group of Prof. Kenneth S Schweizer at the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign.
