Open project positions:
Interested candidates can mail me directly for short-term projects of a duration of 3-4 months. A handsome fellowship will be offered.
I am looking for doctoral candidates who can either apply through BITSAT or have their individual fellowship (JRF-NET and others).
I am also looking for post-doctoral candidates who can apply for NPDF (https://serbonline.in/SERB/npdf).
