Bio-sketch

Nancy Gupta obtained her B.Sc. (Hons.) Chemistry in 2008 from Hindu College, University of Delhi. She then moved to IIT Roorke for Masters in Chemistry with organic as majors and completed it in 2010. After completing her M.Sc. and securing CSIR-JRF fellowship, she joined Prof. Anindya Datta’s group in department of Chemistry at IIT Bombay to pursue PhD and completed it in March 2016. She has studied the micro environment of Nafion membrane and thin films with the help of photophyscial properties of fluorescent dyes incorporated in the films and membrane. She has three publications from her thesis projects and one publication from collaboration with scientists from Bhabha Atomic Research Center (BARC). She then joined Prof. Angshuman Nag’s group at IISER, Pune for post doctoral research to synthesize and study semiconductor nano and bulk materials having photovoltaic applications. She has two publications from her postdoctoral work. All her publications are in reputed international journals. During research career she has presentated her work in several national and international conferences. After postdoctoral research, she joined an accelerator program Entrepreneur First in Bangalore to explore market size and utility of her ideas which could be converted to potential start up. After finding the ideas are in nascent state of research and needs some years of intese research to bring them in the market, she joined Thermo Fisher Sceintific to lead content marketing and aggregator business of the organization. In June, 2021, she joined NSUT as an assistant professor.
