Bio:

Born and raised in Kolkata, India, I did my Bachelors & Masters in Physics from BidhanNagar Govt. College & Razabazar Science College, University of Calcutta, in 2006 and 2008 respectively. I then joined Prof. Dipankar Chakravorty and Dr. Sourish Banerjee for my Ph.D. in experimental Condensed Matter Physics in Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science, India. During PhD, I worked on the transport and magnetic properties of low dimensional systems, graphene and nanocomposites prepared thereof. After completion of my Ph.D. in 2013, I joined Prof. Dan Shahar in the Condensed Matter Physics department of The Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel, to work on the superconductor to insulator transition in nanowire devices made up of amorphous indium oxide. Post that, I joined Nanyang Technological University, Singapore for my second post-doctoral study in 2015, with Prof. Christos Panagopoulos and Prof. Pinaki Sengupta where my research interest was in the low-temperature magnetotransport properties in Archemidean quantum magnets. Recently, I joined this group, where my current research interest is the electrical transport and optoelectronic properties in Van der Waals heterostructure devices.
