About
Dr Anurag is an Assistant Professor of Chemistry at J. C. Bose University of Science and Technology, YMCA, serving since 2020. He earned his MSc (2008) and MPhil in Energy (2009) from the University of Rajasthan. He worked at the National Chemical Laboratory, Pune on polymer membranes before completing his PhD (2010–2014) at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER, Pune). He subsequently pursued postdoctoral research at the JNCASR, Bangaluru.
Dr Sunda received the prestigious DST INSPIRE Faculty Award in Materials Sciences (2015) from the Department of Science and Technology (DST), India and completed the five-year tenure (2015–2020). He was also awarded the Rajat Jayanti Science Communication Fellowship (2011) by the National Council for Science and Technology Communication. He has secured competitive grants, including UGC Start-up (BSR) (2021), SERB/ANRF-CRG (2022), and HSCSIT DST-Haryana (2024, 2026).
His research focuses on proton-conducting materials, electrolytes, ionic liquids, and polymer membranes for energy and environmental applications, with expertise in theoretical and materials chemistry.
