Guwahati:  Anirban Chakraborty, a native of Digboi, has been offered a  position as a designated scientist at the Research Laboratory of a major university in the US.

Anirban is currently pursuing his groundbreaking research on batteries at this world-class institute, reports North East Now.

Highlighting Anirban’s educational journey, his father Kamalesh Chakraborty mentioned that after completing his early schooling at DPS Digboi, he appeared for the Joint Entrance Exam and qualified for admission to the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs).

However, due to certain issues related to subject choices, he opted for the National Institute of Technology (NIT) in Silchar. Anirban pursued Mechanical Engineering at NIT Silchar and secured an impressive score of over 90%.

During his time as an NIT student, Anirban, along with three others, invented a CF decoration with O-CNPs using Ultrasonically Assisted DC-EPD, the newspaper reported.

Continuing his academic journey, Anirban received admission offers from Chicago North Western University and an executive service position at Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL), posted at Haldia Refinery.

As he did not receive a scholarship for Chicago, he joined HPCL but worked there for only five months.

Subsequently, he secured a full scholarship and an educational offer from South Dakota State University in the USA. In 2017, Anirban joined the university, resigning from his position at HPCL.

While pursuing his Master of Science (MS) degree in the USA, Anirban focused on enhancing the invention of a 3D Printed Bioreactor with optimized stimulations for ex-vivo bone tissue culture.

In 2018, he submitted his thesis on this topic for partial fulfilment of his degree.

Anirban later joined Texas A&M University with a full scholarship to pursue his PhD. There, he became the “first author” of four inventions, which were published in different internationally renowned journals, North East Now reported.
