An important aspect of my current life, my future goals, and the underlying theme is one of appreciating diversity, especially across research and teaching innovations in science and in particular biotechnology. The Major projects which I carried out during my doctoral time reflects my independent thinking, management ability and strong leadership quality all were reflected on successful completion of all the above said projects. The experience I have in research after the period of Ph.D. took me to diversified areas in chemistry and biotechnology. I have published several papers in well reputed international journals (SCI) and still few articles to be submitted. My field of research can be understood as follows.  Co-ordination (Bioinorganic) Chemistry  OLED compounds  Photophysical behaviour of Ir(III) compounds in different solvents and photoluminescence quenching by external heavy atoms and singlet oxygen  Nanobiotechnology for Environmental issues -Nanoparticles/Nanocomposites and pharmaceutical applications -Drug delivery/MRI applications -Mesoporous materials -Synthesis and photo-catalytic degradation efficiency of ZnO -Adsorption of inorganic/organic pollutants (Water research) -Macroporous chitosan membranes for enzyme immobilization Currently reviewer for Journal of Hazardous Materials, Chemical Engineering Journal, RSC Advances, Journal of Materials Chemistry, Journal of Chemical Technology & Biotechnology, Dalton Transactions, CrystEngComm, Environmental Science: Process & Impacts, Journal of Environmental Monitoring, Spectrochimica Acta Part A, Sensors & Actuators: B. Chemical, Synthetic Communications, Environmental Technology, Desalination, Inorganic Chemistry Communications, Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, Journal of Coordination Chemistry, etc. Reviewed numerous manuscripts and published around 70 Publications, 1 books etc. My short-term goal involves: To teach and guide the students to make them understand the techniques for research; To create a team to perform research; To create the awareness of literature survey to the students; To start an independent research work on my own interest; To write the novel research proposal to gain grant aids for successful research team. Long-term research plan: Synthetic strategies for the preparation of materials; Stability, activity and performance of the synthesized materials; Suitability and challenges associated with applications in different fields; Utilization of individual different materials for different purposes; Nanocomposites for drug delivery and bone regeneration.
