“I am an Aerospace Engineer from IIT Kharagpur with an integrated Bachelor’s and Master’s degree. Now, I work as a PhD candidate at TU Delft on an interdisciplinary project funded by the Pandemic and Disaster Preparedness Centre (PDPC). My research aims to predict and quantify the airborne transmission potential of the virus in a ventilated setting with the help of scientists from the fields of medicine, virology, epidemiology, public health, engineering, physics, and electronics. I am currently working on developing quantitative models on airflows possible in such settings.”
