Recently delivered an invited lecture at SAIS Symposium held at IACS Kolkata, India during March 2026.
Topic was on single particle spectroscopy and ultrafast exciton dynamics in quantum dots and perovskite nanocrystals.

[Prasun Mandal @prasunchem]

Recently delivered a talk in the ICESAA-4 international conference on excited state aromaticity and antiaromaticity.This was an excellent conference organized by Prof. Mahesh Hariharan @GroupHariharan @tvmiiser.
Next version of ICESAA will be held in Osaka, Japan in Sept. 2027.
