Before that, he was a Visiting Researcher in the Department of Astrophysics and Cosmology at S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences, till the plague COVID19 mucked it all up. In pre-covid days, he did his Masters’ and Doctorate at the same institute.
His PhD Thesis is collecting dust was on the accretion processes around Black Holes and Neutron Stars. One can find a detailed list of his work, interests and publications somwhere in this website or by simply poking him with a stick.
Prior to that, he did is master’s on Physical Sciences, with a specialization in Astrophysics, as part of the Integrated PhD programme. Information regarding that can be obtained even without poking him, as he loves talking about the good ol’ days, a tad too much!
