Hi, I’m Dipanjan Mandal, a post-doctoral research fellow at University of Warwick. I joined Warwick in November 2019. My research area is broadly in Statistical Physics. At Warwick, I work with Prof. David Quigley, studying the nucleation properties of the lattice-systems in the presence of static/dynamic impurities. During my PhD, at Institute of Mathematical Sciences, India, I studied the entropy driven phase transitions and critical properties of the system hard particles with different geometrical shapes on lattice, under the supervision of Prof. R. Rajesh. Immediately after my PhD, I was a post-doctoral fellow at Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Hyderabad in 2019, for a brief period, working with Prof. Kabir Ramola on active random walk.
