Openings
PhD positions are available. Interested candidates with a strong background in maths and physics and a deep interest in fundamental and applied fluid mechanics can email me.
For Post-doc positions, I can collaborate to submit applications to the ANRF-National Post Doctoral Fellowship
Projects are broadly related to transition to turbulence, stratified turbulent mixing, biologically generated mixing, interactions between waves and vortical motions, ocean response to the Indian monsoon, and ocean acoustics.
Students applying for internships can email me directly with a short description of their background and interests
