Hi, I am Dr. Bidushi Sarkar, currently a postdoctoral associate at The University of Chicago with Prof. Chibueze Amanchukwu. Prior to UChicago, I did a short stint as a Research Associate at the Technische Universität Chemnitz (TU Chemnitz). I did my PhD in Chemistry and Materials Sciences at the Materials Research Center, Indian Institute of Science, under the supervision of Prof. Karuna Kar Nanda.
I am an experienced electrochemist specializing in electrochemical processes for energy and environmental applications, including PFAS degradation, CO₂ conversion, and water electrolysis. I am skilled in the synthesis and characterization of novel materials and optimizing reaction conditions. Strong background in collaborative research with national labs, universities, and industry partners. I am passionate about sustainable technologies, materials development, and scaling clean energy solutions.
