About Me

I am working as Assistant Professor in the Department of Computational and Data Sciences at Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Kolkata. Before joining IISER, Kolkata, I was a Post-doctoral Researcher at GESIS – Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences, Cologne, Germany working with Dr. Philipp Mayr in the DFG funded project ConData. Prior to that, I was a senior research fellow at Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata. My PhD. supervisor was Prof. Mandar Mitra, Professor at Computer and Communication Science Division, Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata.
