About

After completing my B.Sc. from RKMRC Narendrapur and M.Sc. from Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad, I joined IIT Kanpur as a Research Fellow in the Department of Chemistry. Here my interest mainly revolves around protein's behaviour inside various media like deep Eutectic Solvents, Ionic Liquids, Crowder etc. I routinely use spectrofluorimeter, CD, TCSPC (for solvation dynamics and anisotropy), fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), protein tagging and microscopy. Other than this I took interest in the photophysics of perovskite nanocrystals, the mystery of solvent mixtures and fluorescence sensing of biologically and chemically important ions.
