We are excited to share that our very own @GYedase has successfully defended his Ph.D. Thesis. Now, officially, Dr. Girish is the first Ph.D. from YVR Lab. We wish him all the best in his future endeavors.
Thanks @tvmiiser and @EduMinOfIndia for supporting.
Congratulations to Diptiprava Sahoo
Our first PhD student, Diptiprava Sahoo, recently delivered her presynopsis seminar on Light-Responsive Chiral Molecular Architectures: Design, Switching and Function. Thanks @Chemie_iisertvm@tvmiiser for support
All the best for your future
