Santanu Chaudhuri

[2] As a graduate student, he received a NATO scholarship to work at Oxford University developing simulation methods for ionic conductors, catalysts, and battery materials.

[1] From 2003–2006, Chaudhuri worked at Brookhaven National Laboratory's Center for Functional Nanomaterials and developed a research program on theory-guided design of hydrogen storage materials for automobile applications.

After that he joined Washington State University and served as a Research Associate Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy.

[citation needed] In 2014, Chaudhuri moved to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and subsequently served as the Associate Director of the Applied Research Institute (ARI).He built research program on accelerating Materials Design and Manufacturing using simulation-based process design and predictions of materials performance.

[2] Dr. Chaudhuri leads a research team that specializes in the practical and engineering application of high-performance computing in energy, environment and manufacturing.
