Hello! I am Dr. Kishan Tiwari. I originally hail from the small town of Mughalsarai, Uttar Pradesh, India. I completed my schooling there and then moved to the metro city of Delhi for my graduation and master's degree. Later I joined the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur where I obtained my Ph.D. degree in Earth and Planetary Science. I am currently employed as a postdoctoral fellow at Physical Research Laboratory Ahmedabad. My research is mainly focused on novel textures and microstructures in shocked meteorites.
