I am currently taking a much needed break from any professional commitments and will be joining the Department of Mathematics at IIT Madras, as an Assistant Professor, from April 2025.
I completed my M.Sc. and Ph.D. in Computer Science from the School of Technology and Computer Science at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai under the guidance of Ramprasad Saptharishi. I was supported by a Google Fellowship in my final year.
I then held post-doctoral positions at the Institute of Mathematics of the Czech Academy of Sciences (as a post-doctoral researcher hosted by Pavel Hrubesͮ), the Blavatnik School of Computer Science in Tel Aviv University (as a postdoctoral student hosted by Amir Shpilka) and the School of Computer Sciences at NISER Bhubaneswar (as a visiting faculty member).
My second year of postdoctoral research was supported by the Azrieli International Postdoctoral Fellowship; during which I spent some time visiting TIFR Mumbai, ICTS-TIFR Bengaluru, IISc Bengaluru and IIIT Hyderabad (while being affiliated to Tel Aviv University). I am eternally grateful to those who hosted Anamay and me at these instututes during this period.
In the distant past, I did B.Sc. (Hons. in Mathematics with Computer Science & Physics) from St. Xavier's College, Kolkata; and then M.Sc. in Mathematics and Computing from IIT Guwahati. My schooling was from La Martiniere for Girls, Kolkata.
My research interest lies in the field of Theoretical Computer Science. What I love doing the most is understanding the power of various models of computation. Here is a link to my resume. It was last updated in October, 2024.
