Dr. Pritam Mondal obtained his Ph.D. in 2017 in the field of Inorganic Chemistry under the guidance of Prof. S. P. Rath in the Department of Chemistry at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur. Then he moved to the laboratory of Prof. Gayan B. Wijeratne in the Department of Chemistry, University of Alabama at Birmingham, USA, where he worked on synthetic heme enzymes and their bioinspired reactivity landscapes. He joined the Department of Chemical Sciences at IISER Mohali in August 2023, and his research interest lies in elucidating mechanistic details of heme/non-heme enzymes through biomimetic modelling.
