Learn more about our new Associate Editor:
Buddhadeb obtained his B.Sc. (2001) in chemistry from the Burdwan University and M.Sc. (2003) in chemistry from Visva-Bharati University. In 2003, he left Visva-Bharati and enrolled in Kalyani University for his Ph.D. in the laboratories of Professor K. C. Majumdar. After postdoctoral research work around six years in the USA from 2009 to 2024 (University of Illinois at Chicago, USA and Michigan State University, East Lansing, USA), Buddhadeb started his independent research career at the Centre of Biomedical Research (CBMR), Lucknow, India, where he is currently holding the position of Associate Professor in the Department of Biological & Synthetic Chemistry.
Buddhadeb was the recipient of the Ramanujan Faculty award, DST Young Scientist Award, Thieme Chemistry Journal Award, SERB-STAR AWARD–2019 (Science and Technology Award for Research), SERB-TETRA AWARD–2022 (Technology Translation Award), Fellow of National Academy of Sciences (FNASc), and Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry (FRSC).
His research interest includes the catalyst/ligand engineering for the C–H bond activation/functionalization, especially C–H bond borylations of organic molecules and metal-nitrene/carbene chemistry via metalloradical catalysis.
