About me
I am an Igneous petrologist and geochemist by training, currently working on geochemical and isotopic investigations of melt/fluid-rock interactions in deep lithosphere and upper mantle of the earth.
Biography
I received my PhD from Presidency University, Kolkata in 2018. I continued my doctoral work as a Researcher in the same institute till 2019, and then I went to Japan and joined Hiroshima University as an Assistant professor, in Earth and Planetary Systems Science program. I came back to India in 2022 and joined IISER Berhampur as a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow, in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences. After a year I joined the same department in IISER Berhampur as an Assistant Professor (G-I).
