BIOGRAPHY

Dr. Indrani Chakraborty is currently an Assistant Professor (Senior Grade) in Jaypee Institute of Information Technology, Sector-62 Noida. She obtained her B.Sc. (Honours) (2006-2009) and M.Sc. degree (2009-2011) in Physics from University of Calcutta, Kolkata. She completed her Ph.D. in Particle Physics phenomenology from University of Calcutta, Kolkata in 2017. After submitting thesis, she was a post doctoral fellow at Harish-Chandra Research Institute, Allahabad (2016-2018). Prior to joining JIIT, she was a DST INSPIRE Faculty at Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur from 2018. She has guided a Ph.D. student at IIT Kanpur during her INSPIRE Faculty tenure. Her research interest spans a broad area in particle physics, in particular, model building and phenomenological aspects of beyond Standard Model (BSM) physics, collider physics, electroweak vacuum stability in the Standard Model (SM) and beyond, electroweak one-loop computations, dark matter phenomenology, cosmology, leptogenesis, possible solutions to the muon anomaly and searching for gravitational wave signatures.
