About me:My name is Vikas Goel, and I am a Postdoctoral Associate at the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department, Virginia Tech (VT). I also worked as a principal project scientist and postdoctoral fellow at the IITD from Feb 2020 to May 2024, with Prof. Mayank Kumar. I received a Ph.D. degree in chemical sciences from the CSIR-National Physical Laboratory in 2020. My research focuses on the physico-chemical characterization, source apportionment, and simulation of optical properties of aerosols. My current focus is on secondary aerosol formation.
