DINABANDHU BARIK
Prime Minister Research fellow
Department of Chemistry, IIT Guwahati

        My fascination with organic chemistry blossomed during my postgraduate studies, where I was captivated by the elegance and versatility of carbon-based compounds. Through rigorous coursework and hands-on laboratory experiences, I gained a deep appreciation for the pivotal role of organic chemistry in addressing complex societal challenges, from drug discovery to sustainable organic synthesis. Moreover, my research endeavors allowed me to explore the synthesis and characterization of novel organic molecules, providing invaluable insights into the intricacies of molecular design and reactivity. In July 2022 I joined as a research scholar under the supervision of Prof. Bhisma Kumar Patel on the field of Synthetic Organic Chemistry. In September 2023, I was awarded the prestigious Prime Minister's Research Fellowship that encouraged me to ameliorate my research work

       My current research work is focused on  visible-light mediated organic synthesis of sulfur containing precursors of biologically active molecules which show antibacterial, antimycotic, and anticancer properties. Out of my research, I enjoy teaching Organic Chemistry graduate and undergraduate enthusiastic students.
