Happy to share that I have successfully defended my PhD thesis! 🎓😇🥳
Grateful to Prof. K. George Thomas for his guidance and to Prof. Saptharshi Mukherjee for the insightful discussion during the defense.
Thankful to @KGT_Lab, friends, and family for their support.
Heartiest congratulations to our dear Professor George Thomas on receiving the SASTRA-CNR Rao Award for excellence in chemistry and materials science awarded by @SastraUniv on the occasion of National Science Day👏👏 @tvmiiser@Chemie_iisertvm
Kudos to Dr.@vishnuek_, our former PhD student, for earning the Alexander von Humboldt Fellowship! He is currently pursuing postdoctoral research with Prof. Tobias Brixner, @Uni_WUE , and the fellowship supports his continued work there.
