Work done
Molecular Modeling and Reaction Mechanism Study
Work details
Using density functional theory physical and thermodynamical
properties of new material is studied. Same is used to find out
reaction mechanism of any reaction through calculation of Activation energy and
change of Gibb`s free energy.

AUGUST 2016
Modeling of Photo acoustic Contrast Agent;
Study of Reaction Mechanism using DFT;
Theoretical Development of 1#1, LogP and Relative Toxicity
Using density functional theory, photo acoustic contrast
activity of organometallic clusters are studied and new
molecules are modeled with better contrast activity.
Reaction mechanisms are studied for 2#2 reforming on
Ni nanocluster, selective hydrogenation of HMF to DMF in water,
low-temperature oxidative dehydrogenation of propane on BxCN,
heterogeneous hydroamination over support-stabilized gold nanoparticles,
formation of thermo- responsive luminescent alternating copolymer.
Theoretical methods are developed for insilico calculation of
1#1, LogP and relative toxicity of any compound from its
chemical structure and properties.

In my opinion, a clean and peaceful society can't be formed without proper development and
implementation of science. Thus, teaching and research are very closely related. My focus as a
professor is always precise and progressive. I fell, if a science student gets a chance to interact with top
level researchers he would be motivated and his ideas on different topics would be clear and interesting
to him. I love teaching from my heart. As a teacher I am very much open minded. I always try to
explain any topic from different angle of views such that any student can understand and
visualize the fact. I am very much patient at teaching. At research, I am dedicated and try to do some
novel work which would enrich the mankind. My recent articles regarding Directional
Research exhibit my view about teaching and research.
At present I am an active member of Paschim Banga Viggan Mancha (PBVM), an organization
which is devoted to spread scientific knowledge to our society and fight against superstitions in our
society. I edited (2012-2013), publish and distribute a science magazine named "Jiggasa" to increase
science literacy in our society. I want to devote myself completely for the sake of the prosperity of
mankind. Thus, I am in a search for such an opportunity. I love to take challenges which helps me to do
research in different fields starting from Cosmology to Chemistry to Biology and Drug Designing.
RESEARCH INTERESTS
I like to work in different fields like computational drug designing and medicinal
