I am a Postdoctoral Researcher with a joint appointment at National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, Maryland and University of Maryland, College Park. I received a PhD in physics from Oregon State University, and a B.S. and an M.S. in physics from Tribhuvan University, Nepal. My research interests are in transport phenomena and nonlinear behavior in nanoscale and molecular systems, such as ion transport through nanopores, thermal transport in low-dimensional materials and DNA denaturation. I use mathematical modeling and computational techniques to investigate these processes and have expertise in molecular dynamics simulation . I also develop my own codes to perform molecular dynamics, as well as Monte Carlo simulations and analysis.

PhD Thesis:

Nonlinear behavior of thermal and ion transport at the nanoscale
