Brief Biodata:
Dr. Ravishankar obtained his B.Tech. degree in
Metallurgical Engineering from ITBHU, Varanasi
in 1991. He then continued in the same field and
obtained his M. Sc. and Ph. D. degrees from IISc,
Bangalore in 1993 and 1998 respectively. During
his Ph. D. he spent time as a exchange program student
at Toyohashi University of Technology, Japan in
1996. Following his Ph. D., he was a Post Doctoral
Researcher and then Research Associate with Prof.
Barry Carter's Research Group at the University
of Minnesota from 1998 till 2002. Since 2002 he
has been on the faculty of the Materials Research
Centre. |
