From Spin Materials to Electron Transfer Catalysis
Swadhin Mandal is a professor at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) in Kolkata. Earlier, he was head of the Department of Chemical Sciences at IISER Kolkata from 2018 to 2020. He earned his BS and MS degrees from the University of Kalyani. In 2002, he received his doctorate from the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, under the supervision of Prof. S. S. Krishnamurthy. He then worked as a postdoctoral fellow with Prof. Robert C. Haddon at the University of California, Riverside, USA and as an Alexander von Humboldt fellow with Prof. Herbert W. Roesky at the University of Göttingen, Germany. He joined IISER Kolkata as an assistant professor in 2007 and was promoted to full professor in 2018. His current research interests include metal-free catalysis with reactive electron-rich main group species for discovering new chemical transformations of CO2 and electron transfer catalysis with small molecules in various organic transformations. His research has been published in several high-profile international journals (over 120 publications and patents), including Nature, JACS, Angew Chem, Chem Sci, and others. To date, he has guided 14 students to their PhD degrees.
