About

Hi, I am Debojit. Again, welcome to my website.

I am a final year PhD student in the Department of Physics at the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur. I work in the field of Soft Matter Physics in the Soft & Active Matter Lab under the supervision of Dr. Manas Khan. My current research aims to identify and address the similarities between biological and colloidal membranes and design artificial membranes with bioengineered colloids.

Besides my research, I also paint watercolor landscapes, though I do not find much time. My other hobbies include, playing and watching football, photography and watching/reading various animes/mangas.
