About me
I am a Research Scholar in the Interdisciplinary Programme in Climate Studies department at Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, working under the supervision of Dr. Arnab Dutta and Dr. Vikram Vishal. I was awarded the prestigious Prime Minister's Research Fellowship (PMRF) in July 2022. I am developing bio-inspired molecular complexes and plasmonic gold nanomaterials dyads for solar-driven small-molecule activation in an industry-ready photoelectrochemical reactor.
In recent decades, the acceleration of climate change has become increasingly evident, with rising temperatures, extreme weather events, and environmental degradation threatening ecosystems and human well-being worldwide. Recognizing the severity of these challenges, my research endeavors are driven by a deep sense of responsibility to contribute to solutions that safeguard our planet for future generations. As a PhD student committed to making a difference, I am eager to contribute to the collective effort to address the climate crisis and build a brighter, more sustainable future for all.
