Welcome to Molecular Biophysics Lab
Our group investigates the structure, dynamics, and self-organization of biomolecules with special attention to the solvation and hydration phenomena. Our work lies at the interface between Physics, Physical Chemistry, and Molecular Biophysics. We develop and use a combination of tools based on spectroscopy, spectroscopic models, and computer simulations to understand interdisciplinary problems.
Two Ph.D. positions are available.
Qualification needed: MSc in Physics or Chemistry.
Please contact Dr. Debasish Das Mahanta (dmahanta@gitam.edu).
Position Available - Research Intern
Qualifications
-
Master's degree in Science (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Statistics, Biology).
Features
-
Monthly fellowship of 15000 INR for the first six months.
-
No tuition fees need to be paid during the entire internship period.
-
After six months, upon successfully clearing the GITAM Ph.D. entrance test or any national-level examination like NET, GATE, etc, the intern will be promoted to the regular PhD scholar in GITAM University, Bengaluru campus.
-
The stipend of a Ph.D. scholar will be 25000 INR per month (plus HRA).
