Our group works in Lab-on-Chip applications with Surface Acoustic Waves and Electro-wetting as tools. Further, we study single biological cells by encapsulating them in micro-droplets.

Experimental High Energy Physics Group (Chitrasen Jena)
Our group focuses broadly on studying the phase diagram of Quantum ChromoDynamics (QCD), various signatures of Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) and understanding the particle production mechanism in high-energy nuclear collisions. We are also involved in direct dark matter detection experiment.
Galactic Dynamics (Arunima Banerjee)
We focus on modelling the structure and dynamics of galaxies and their dark matter halos using HI 21 cm radio-synthesis observations with an emphasis on dwarf-irregulars and low surface brightness galaxies.
