Dr. Dulal Senapati is an Associate professor in the Chemical Sciences Division (CSD) at the Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics (SINP), Homi Bhabha National Institute (HBNI), Kolkata, INDIA. He earned his Ph.D. in 2005 with Prof. Puspendu K. Das at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru. After finishing his Ph.D., he immediately joined as a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Georgia Institute of Technology, USA in the laboratory of Prof. Robert M. Dickson and continued till 2008. In 2008, he moved to Jackson State University, USA to pursue his second Postdoctoral research in the laboratory of Prof. P. C. Ray which continued till 2013. In 2013, he joined SINP as an Associate Professor-‘E’ and was promoted to Associate Professor-‘F’ in 2018. The central theme of Dr. Senapati’s laboratory (Nanophotonics Laboratory) is to design, characterize, and find applications of structurally anisotropic and defect enriched plasmonic, magnetic, magnetoplasmonic, and transition-metal-based low-toxic and water-dispersible nanomaterials in the field of sensing, diagnosis, catalysis, fuel cells, and therapeutics.
