We were pleased to host Dr. Nakul Rampal (UC Berkeley) from the research group of Nobel Laureate Prof. Omar Yaghi for a seminar on “Advancing Reticular Chemistry with Generative AI.”
Congratulations Avishek Kumar, IITB–Monash Academy PhD student, guided by Profs. P. Sunthar (IITB) & J. Ravi Prakash (Monash). His work introducing the persistent-worm model for mesoscopic simulation of worm-like micelles has appeared on the cover of Journal of Rheology.
Congrats to Ms. Anika Mathur, PhD student co-supervised by Prof. Y. Shastri & Prof. S. Roy, for winning 3rd Prize in the Student Challenge Competition at ETM2025. Her proposal was on integrating green hydrogen & oxyfuel combustion for cost-effective refinery decarbonization .
His work focuses on process development for extracting nutraceuticals from natural sources like sugarcane, combining extraction & adsorption with computer-aided molecular design (CAMD) to find optimal solvents and adsorbents. #IITBombay#AIChE#Research
Congrats to Mr. Nistala Venkata Subrahmanyam, PhD student @ChemEngIITB, working with Prof. Sharad Bhartiya & Prof. Urmila Diwekar, for winning the 2025 @AIChE Separations Division Graduate Student Research Award for Extraction! 🎉
Congratulations Prof. Wangikar’s @iitbombay and team for unveiling hidden blood markers that may predict diabetes & kidney risks early!
Their Whole Blood Metabolome Profiling study has been widely covered by various media…see below for more details.
Late post!
Congratulation Mr. Gautam Prabhudesai for the best M. Tech Thesis Award received in the last convocation. He worked on natural gas storage using graphene oxide under the guidance of Prof. Ateeque Malani and Prof. Sanjog Nagarkar.
Prof. @DeepakNModi
from @icmrnirrch is tackling a critical challenge: the lack of drug safety data for pregnant women. In an engaging talk, he discussed "placenta-on-chip" to mimic the human placenta, enabling real-time monitoring of drug effects to ensure safer pregnancies.
