Sanjoy Kumar Maji

Assistant Professor

I finished my Masters in Inorganic chemistry from BNMU, Bihar. I did my PhD from IIT, KGP in Environmental chemistry. I visited the Parma University, Italy as a guest scientist and worked on blood substitute. I did my Post Doctoral fellowship from NTU, Taiwan. I published more than thirty papers in the National and International reputed Journals. Currently I am perusing as Asst. Prof. in the chemistry department of KIIT, DU. I have completed a DST (Govt. India) funded project.
