Biography
Abhishek obtained his undergraduate degree from the Presidency College, Calcutta, India and his PhD from Stanford University, CA, USA. He joined IACS in June 2009 as an Assistant Professor and is currently serving as an Associate Professor at the same department. He is the recipient of the American Chemical Society Division of Inorganic Chemistry Young Investigator Award and Society of Porphyrin and Pthalocyanine Young Investigator Award. His current area of research involves development of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts for sustainable energy and clean environment. A combination of synthesis, self-assembly, spectroscopy, electrochemistry and electronic structure calculations are used to attain these research goals. He is currently serving the international editorial advisory boards of Chemical Communications, Inorganic Chemistry, Journal of Biological Inorganic Chemistry and ACS Catalysis.
