Bio

Dr. Mrittunjoy Guha Majumdar is Adjunct Faculty at the National Institute of Advanced Studies (NIAS) Bengaluru and Assistant Professor at Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham Delhi NCR. Having completed his doctorate from Cavendish Laboratory at the University of Cambridge, he has been a Postdoctoral Fellow at Harvard University, a senior postdoctoral researcher at the Indian Institute of Science – Bangalore and a postdoctoral associate of Nobel Laureate (Physics, 1973) Prof. Brian Josephson at the University of Cambridge. He has been a Trinity Barlow Scholar (2015-2018), Nehru Scholar (2014-2018), Inspire Scholar (2011-2014) and TIFR (Tata Institute of Fundamental Research) NIUS Fellow (2012-2014). He has had training in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning from the MIT Schwarzmann School of Computing. Dr. Guha Majumdar has been showcased by UNESCO twice and has chaired a C20 session on Education and Technology, as part of G20 2023. Previously, he worked with the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), Government of India, on competency-based learning, differentiated curriculum and experiential learning, submitting a report that fed into the formulation of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. He has also been a science communicator, with his documentary on Quantum Mechanics aired on Doordarshan, under the Science India initiative.
