About

I am currently a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Chemical Engineering at IIT Bombay under Prof. Jyoti Seth. I completed my Ph.D. in Mathematics from NIT Durgapur on October 17, 2025 under the supervision of Dr. Partha Pratim Gopmandal, and subsequently worked as a Visiting Scientist at the Physics and Applied Mathematics Unit, Indian Statistical Institute (ISI), Kolkata. My research centers on electrokinetic transport phenomena, with emphasis on electrophoresis and electroosmotic flow modulation of engineered nanoparticles and uncharged solutes. I investigate the mobility of complex systems such as droplets, soft particles, and core–shell nanoparticles, aiming toward applications in drug delivery, diagnostics, and advanced materials. I am keen to further expand this research in a rigorous and interdisciplinary academic environment.
