Rudra Banerjee
Assistant Professor, Computational Condensed Matter
SRM Institute of Science and Technology
Dr Rudra Banerjee is an assistant professor of Physics at the Department of Physics and Nanotechnology at SRMIST. He is the group leader of the Materials Advancing a Viable ENergy future (MAVENs) Group.
Dr. Banerjee boasts over a decade of experience in the field of 2D and disordered materials, resulting in a rich and varied portfolio. His research deals with computational material science, specifically designing new materials for green-energy and qubits. Dr. Banerjee implements Monte Carlo and ab-initio DFT and KKR-CPA methods along with Machine Learning model to analyse and predict the properties of materials numerically. His collaborative spirit extends to leading experimentalists, fostering a deep understanding of materials behaviour.
Dr. Banerjee’s contributions extend beyond research. He takes core courses like classical mechanics and computational physics regularly to BSc and MSc students and the computational methods to PhD students. He is playing an instrumental role in developing multiple courses and curriculums at SRMIST.
Dr. Banerjee is a life-time member of Indian Physics Association.
