"I have no special gift. I am only passionately curious." ~Albert Einstein

It is curiosity that has made me what I am and it will surely have a major contribution in what I will become in future. I try to answer the question - to what extent will my curiosity be quenched? – Before making any decision concerning my academics. I can never accept theorems or facts without their proofs – proofs, which may be theoretical, logical or even intuitive, because I believe intuition has a major role to play in Science and Technology.

Currently I am Graduate Student working for my Ph.D. at Department of Energy, Environmental and Chemical Engineering at Washington University in Saint Louis, MO, USA. I am working at Aerosol and Air Quality Research Laboratory (AAQRL) with Prof. Pratim Biswas (Stifel and Quinette Jens Professor; Chair, Department of Energy, Environmental and Chemical Engineering; Washington University in St. Louis). I am proud and happy to be part of AAQRL 'Aerosol Mafia' group.

My research interest includes both doing theoretical work using computer simulation and establish them by experiment or vice versa.

Currently I am setting up experiment to synthesize magnetic nano-particles, which has enormous application on biomedical science by 'dry vapor decomposition method' at high temperature furnace. Our ultimate goal in this project is to successfully synthesis magnetic nano-particles of very narrow size distribution with mean diameter between 5 - 200 nm and coat them with optically opaque material by 'chemical vapor deposition (CVD)' process in a single step by controlled way.

I am also trying to generate virtual system similar to my experiment by computer coding using 'discrete-sectional model'. All these work are at embryonic stage only. In my model, currently I have included nano-particles formation due to 'coagulation' only. Very soon I will be including the 'condensation', 'nucleation', 'sintering', 'thermophoratic effect' to my model to simulate system as close as real experiment. This will help to optimize and control of synthesis of these magnetic nano-particles.

In recent future I am looking forward to study the optical and magnetic property of the synthesized magnetic nanoparticles.

"Bear in mind that the wonderful things you learn in your schools are the work of many generations, produced by enthusiastic effort and infinite labor in every country of the world. All this is put into your hands as your inheritance in order that you may receive it, honor it, add to it, and one day faithfully hand it on to your children. Thus do we mortals achieve immortality in the permanent things which we create in common.

If you always keep that in mind you will find a meaning in life and work and acquire the right attitude towards other nations and ages." ~Albert Einstein
