Anup Shrestha's HDR Supervision

Working with future research scholars with one-to-one socratic conversations about their research and its impact is the best part of my job. I take on the challenge of fulfilling any research idea into successful recognition as a researcher for my research students.

If I can do it, anyone can! 

If you know my life story, you will know what I mean.
