Title of the talk: 

Selective and Controlled Synthesis through Organocatalysis and Organophotocatalysis

Prof. Ranjit Biswas is a senior professor in Department of Chemical and Biological Sciences, S.N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences, Kolkata. The works of Prof. Ranjit Biswas's research group are based upon the theme of developing a molecular level understanding of the structure and dynamics of various complex media and their relationship to simple chemical events occurring in them. An integrated approach, based on experiment, simulation, and theory have been adopted for this.
