Dr Swaroop Chakraborty

School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences
Research Fellow

Dr Chakraborty is an interdisciplinary researcher with expertise in nanomaterial synthesis and characterization, nanomaterial biochemical transformation and their impact on toxicity. He is currently working on two EU-funded projects, i.e., H2020- SABYDOMA and Horizon Europe- MOZART to explore the field of nanosafety research.  He is very interested in developing a mechanistic understanding of nanomaterials toxicity using advanced in-vitro cellular models.
