プロフィール概要

Post M.Sc. in Molecular Biology and Biotechnology (1st class 1st) from Tezpur University, I was awarded the Ph.D. degree in Chemical Sciences for my thesis in the domain of nanobiotechnology, entitled, 'Polymer-assisted nanomaterials immobilized biomolecules and their potential applications’, supervised by Prof. Niranjan Karak, Department of Chemical Sciences, Tezpur University, India. This was followed by a period of training as a research associate at Tezpur University. I then functioned as a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Biosciences and Bioengineering, Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati (IIT G). During this period, my endeavors were directed towards the exploitation of north-east Indian silk based (nanofibrous) biomaterials for biomedical applications. I also functioned as a co-investigator in a DST-UKIERI project funded between IIT Guwahati and UCL, London, England. I served as guest faculty in the Center for Biotechnology and Bioinformatics, Dibrugarh University, India. I am currently serving as Assistant Professor - Nanobiotechnology, Department of Biotechnology, Addis Ababa Science and Technology University, Ethiopia, Africa. I also take this opportunity to inform you that I had availed IASc-INSA-NASI summer research fellowship (2007) at National Brain Research Centre, Haryana, India. I functioned as a visiting researcher at the Department of Plant Agriculture, University of Guelph, Ontario, Canada under Canadian Commonwealth Scholarship Program (2011-2012). I have qualified CSIR-UGC NET JRF (Life Science) - 2007, GATE (Life Science, XL) - 2007 and DBT-JRF – 2008 and DBT-SRF- 2010. I had previously conducted CSIR-NET life science coaching classes at Tezpur University. I am a life- member of Materials Research Society of India. The various research publications (details in the CV) have fetched a total citation of 1144 while my h-index and i10 index are 17 and 20 respectively (source: Google Scholar, data retrieved on August 10, 2020). Among few of my achievements, it's pertinent to mention about - Best Poster Award- Ontario Biocar Initiative, University of Windsor, Canada (18 Nov, 2011), Best Literary Competitor, Fourteenth Annual Meet, 2011, Tezpur University and Young Researcher Award in National Conference on Advanced Materials and Applications (NCAMA-2013) organized by National Institute of Technology-Trichy (NITT)- SPIE and Optical Society of America (OSA) student chapter. I am also currently serving as a review editor for a number of esteemed journals.
