Umakant Pradhan

About

I completed my Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) in CBZ (Chemistry, Botany, Zoology) in 2017 from Science College, Raipur, affiliated with Pandit Ravishankar Shukla University, Raipur. I pursued my Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Botany and graduated in 2019 from Guru Ghasidas Vishwavidyalaya, a central university located in Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh. Currently, I am pursuing my PhD in botany at Indira Gandhi National Tribal University, Amarkantak, Madhya Pradesh, under the supervision of Prof. A.K. Shukla. My research interests lie in nanoparticles, antimicrobial and antioxidant activity and PGPR nanofertilisers.
