His research also covers analytical and environmental applications and SERS studies.
Dr. Aparna Ganguly, Â鶹AV, India
Dr Aparna Ganguly completed her graduation and post- graduation in Chemistry from University of Delhi and subsequently obtained her PhD in Materials Chemistry under the supervision of Professor A. K. Ganguli at IIT Delhi. After a short stint at teaching Physical Chemistry at Central University of Rajasthan, she moved back to the Nanoscale Research Facility, IIT Delhi as a scientist where she worked extensively on porous materials and their applications. In 2014, she joined the Â鶹AV where she is currently the Editorial Development Manager and manages the journal portfolio and their growth in India. As a part of her role, she works quite extensively with the scientific community, various Indian chemical societies, and researchers across various disciplines of Chemical Sciences and support the journal teams
Professor Pravin Ingole, IIT Delhi, India
Prof. Pravin P. Ingole is the 'Bhandri-Sankhla' Chair Professor in the Department of Chemistry at IIT Delhi. He completed his Ph.D. under the joint supervision of Prof. S.K. Haram at the University of Pune and Dr. BLV Prasad at NCL Pune in 2010. He was a DAAD Fellow with Dr. Stephan Hickey (May-Oct 2009) and a Postdoctoral Fellow with Prof. Dr. Alexander Eychmueller and Dr. Nikolai Gaponik (2010-2012) at TU Dresden, Germany. Prof. Ingole began his academic career as an Assistant Professor at the Central University of Rajasthan (2012-2013) before joining IIT Delhi in December 2013, where he progressed to Associate Professor (2019) and then to Professor in December 2023.
His research is centred on electrochemistry for energy and environment, focusing on advanced functional materials for renewable energy harvesting and storage. His group designs nano-electrocatalysts using metal nanoparticles and semiconductor quantum dots, supported by materials such as CNTs, CNFs, graphene, and semiconductor metal oxides. They aim to convert organic pollutants into useful chemicals, tune electronic band structures, and develop photo-electrocatalysts for solar applications, employing techniques like cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and more.
