Welcome!

I’m Dr. Chaitanya B. Hiragond, a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Energy Science and Engineering at DGIST (Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology), South Korea.

I earned my Ph.D. in 2022 from DGIST, where I focused on heterogeneous catalysis for sustainable energy and environmental applications.

Before that, I completed my M.Sc. in Organic Chemistry at Yashwantrao Mohite College, Bharati Vidyapeeth University, Pune (India) in 2014. I also worked as a Researcher at the Defence Institute of Advanced Technology (DIAT), Pune, contributing to nanomaterials research for environmental applications.

My work centers on developing material-based solutions to address global energy and environmental challenges. I engage in interdisciplinary collaborations focused on climate and sustainability goals.
