Elected to the Academy in 2024

Education

Jadavpur University (Calcutta), 1992, BChE , Chemical Engineering; Indian Institute of Science (Bangalore), 1996, MSChE, Chemical Engineering; New Jersey Institute of Technology, 2000, PhD, Mechanical Engineering

Professional Area(s)

Development of physics-based multi-scale (quantum, molecular, and machine-scale) or AI/Machine Learning based computer models for pharmaceutical manufacturing processes and drug delivery; solving powder technology-related problems such as unreliable powder flow, turbocharging, mixing/segregation, 3D printing, and heat transfer

Citation

Internationally acclaimed for the development of experimentally validated multi-scale computer model for novel pharmaceutical manufacturing processes (batch or continuous manufacturing, 3D printing) of different types of dosage forms (tablets, injectables, inhalers); advanced the fundamental understanding of electrostatic charging and its mitigation to avoid dust explosion, jamming, segregation of particulates.
