Research experience

S.N. Bose Scholars Program 2018: During my summer internship through the prestigious IUSSTF S.N. Bose Scholar Award Program 2018, I have worked in the Hughes Lab at the University of California, Riverside (UCR) supervised by Dr. Nigel Hughes. This opportunity was utilised to conduct a comprehensive morphometric analysis of various trilobite specimens.

The title of my work was "The morphology, growth, and variation of the late Cambrian trilobite Walcottaspis vanhornei”.

INSA Summer Research Fellowship Programme 2017: During this internship, I have learned about the geochemical analysis of the ocean core sediments under the guidance of Dr. Sushant Naik at CSIR-National Institute of Oceanography, Goa.

The topic of this research work was “Glacial-interglacial variations in calcium carbonate content of a sediment core from the South Atlantic Ocean”.

INSA Summer Research Fellowship Programme 2016: During this summer internship, I worked for two months with Dr. Santanu Bose at Calcutta University to conduct laboratory experiments to decipher the different controls for formation of a viscous orogenic wedge.

The title of this work was 'Control of the Width of Collisional Zone in the Development of Viscous Wedge'.
