SOURAV DAS SUVRO

Hello, I’m Sourav! Welcome to my corner of the web.

I am a first-year PhD student in Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University, building on my background as a Mechanical Engineering graduate from BUET. My academic trajectory has been shaped by a sustained interest in fundamental science, advanced computation, and the development of engineering frameworks capable of addressing challenging problems across complex physical systems.

My doctoral research, conducted in Laboratory of Fluids in Complex Environment (FX Lab @ Stanford) under the supervision of Prof. Matthias Ihme, centers on the study of supercritical fluids through the combined use of Ultrafast X-ray Diagnostics, coherent Scattering Methodologies, X-ray Spectroscopy, Atomistic Modeling, and Data Driven Computational analysis. Broadly, this work is concerned with resolving the governing physics of phase transitions, molecular-level rearrangement and transport, and ion emission processes in extreme environments. A further dimension of this research involves the integration of machine learning and data science as tools for inference, representation, and predictive discovery in scientifically rich and high-dimensional systems.

Before commencing doctoral study at Stanford, I served as an Adjunct Faculty (Lecturer) in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at BUET, where my work included teaching, research, and student mentorship.

Outside research, I enjoy football (soccer), reading, watching films and movie series, playing games, cycling, and long walks.
