"I'm a condensed matter physicist working at the intersection of first-principles computation and materials discovery. My research focuses on understanding how magnetic and electric orders interact in complex materials — and using that understanding to find new ones with useful properties.",
235+
"Most of my work involves density functional theory (DFT) calculations, often at large scale. I develop and validate computational methods, predict properties of hypothetical materials, and build pipelines for high-throughput screening — particularly for magnetic and thermoelectric materials.",
236+
"I'm currently a Senior Research Fellow at CNR-SPIN and the University of Milan-Bicocca in Milan, where I work on multiferroics, magnetoelectric coupling, and automated workflows for magnetic materials databases. Before this, I was a postdoctoral researcher in the Quantum Materials Theory group at the Italian Institute of Technology in Genova, where I built symmetry-adapted Landau models for multiferroic phase transitions and developed automated post-processing pipelines for DFT codes.",
237+
"I did my PhD in Physics at the University of Missouri Columbia, investigating charge transport and magnetism from first principles — work that resulted in 6 peer-reviewed publications (5 as first author) and presentations at 5 international conferences. Prior to that, I completed an Integrated M.Sc. in Physics at the National Institute of Science Education and Research (NISER) in Bhubaneswar, India."
