About
Hello, my name is Shruti and I am currently pursuing Ph.D. from IIT Bombay. I am all set to embark on a journey of discovery and innovation in the field of Metal-halide perovskites. As a researcher, I have the opportunity to explore this unconventional umbrella of materials, test hypotheses, and contribute to the greater body of knowledge. We, in our lab try to probe the unique phenomena occurring at the sub-microscale in these materials. The process may be challenging but I hope my dedication to research, perseverance, critical thinking, and a commitment to excellence will solve some real-world problems.
