About TAPAS SAHOO

Dr. Tapas Sahoo is a theoretical and computational chemist currently serving as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Applied Science at the Haldia Institute of Technology, West Bengal, India. He has two (2) years of teaching experience as a Temporary Faculty member at the National Institute of Technology Raipur, where he taught undergraduate and postgraduate courses in physical chemistry. He also has seven (7) years of postdoctoral research experience, having worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate–III at the S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences, Kolkata, and previously held postdoctoral positions at the University of Waterloo, Canada, and the Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel.

Dr. Sahoo carried out his Ph.D. research in Physical Chemistry at the Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science, with the degree awarded by the University of Calcutta. His doctoral research focused on molecule–surface scattering dynamics and quantum reaction dynamics. He obtained his M.Sc. in Physical Chemistry from Rajabazar Science College, University of Calcutta, and his B.Sc. in Chemistry from Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda Centenary College, Rahara.

His research interests include quantum molecular dynamics, path integral methods, quantum entanglement entropy, and high-performance computing with parallel algorithmic developments for advanced molecular simulations. He has published 20 research articles in reputed peer-reviewed journals and has presented his work at several international conferences.
