Dr. Anil Patel has earned his PhD in 2020 from India's prestigious Physical Research Laboratory (PRL) in Ahmedabad. Following his doctorate, he pursued postdoctoral research for nearly five years at esteemed institutions, including the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) in the United States of America, Stockholm University in Sweden, and PRL in India.
Dr. Patel’s core research area is Aerosols’ oxidative potential, a key metric that have been applied to empathise the possible mechanisms behind the health effects caused due to particles. Dr. Patel pioneered aerosol oxidative potential research in India, having authored dozens of articles on the subject. As a chemist and experimentalist, he possesses extensive experience with a wide array of analytical techniques. He has been involved in RI-URBANS inter-comparison of oxidative potential protocols from the European Commission.
Dr. Patel's contributions to the ISRO-NASA programme, "Asian Tropopause Aerosol Layer," as well as his participation in a NASA-funded mission focused on Kīlauea, earned him two prestigious “NASA Group Achievement Award”.
Early in his career, he was honoured with the Indian Aerosol Science and Technology Association (IASTA) Young Scientist Award 2025. He also won two consecutive Best Oral Presentation Awards at India's esteemed national conference, IASTA. His research has frequently been featured in leading Indian newspapers. He serves as a reviewer for various international peer-reviewed journals, including those published by Elsevier, Cell Press, and Environmental Health Perspectives (EHP).
