-Savitribai Phule
I completed my graduation from Banasthali Vidyapith (Gold medallist, first rank holder) in 2014 and postgraduation in Chemistry (Gold medallist, first rank holder) in 2019 from Central University of Gujarat, India. I joined a PhD program at the Department of Chemistry, Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, India, in 2020, where I worked under the guidance of Dr. Biswarup Chakraborty as a Prime Minister’s Research Fellow. I completed my PhD in 2025, which was based on "Deciphering Structure-Activity Correlation in Bimetallic Oxide Catalysts During Electrochemical Water Splitting.
Dr. Biswarup Chakraborty received his B.Sc. in Chemistry (2004-2007) from Ramakrishna Mission Residential College, Narendrapur (University of Calcutta) and an integrated M.Sc.-Ph.D. course (2007-2009) from the Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science (IACS, Kolkata). After five years of postdoctoral research at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel and Technical University of Berlin, Germany, he joined the faculty in the department of chemistry, IIT Delhi, in 2020, and is currently an Associate Professor. Dr. Biswarup Chakraborty's group focuses on the electrocatalytic/photocatalytic transformations like water splitting, CO2 reduction, NOx reduction, NH3 oxidation, organo-electrocatalysis, and polyoxometalate chemistry.
