Computational Chemistry Enthusiast | Doctoral Student

Specializing in Molecular Dynamics Simulations & Machine Learning

About Me

I am a computational chemistry enthusiast enrolled in a 4 year PhD programme at Ångström Laboratory, Uppsala University. I completed my 5-Year Integrated MSc. at the National Institute of Science Education and Research (NISER), Bhubaneswar.

My projects focus on the intersection of computational chemistry and machine learning, with particular expertise in molecular dynamics simulations. I am passionate about applying computational methods to solve complex chemical problems and developing innovative algorithms for scientific discovery.

Throughout my graduate studies, I have had the opportunity to work on diverse projects spanning molecular dynamics and graph neural networks. My work involves utilizing high-performance computing resources and cutting-edge machine learning frameworks to investigate molecular behavior and predict material properties.
