Dr. Dubey has earned her doctoral degree in Chemistry at Universität Duisburg-Essen in Germany in 2023. During her Ph.D. program, her research was dedicated to exploring the “multifunctionality of doped Bismuth Ferrite nanoparticles”, specifically in the context of magneto-electric, catalytic and hyperthermia applications. Prior to her Ph.D., Astita obtained her master’s degree from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi in 2018. She earned highest CGPA and a prestigious DAAD German-fellowship, which enabled her to pursue her master’s thesis at the Technical University of Hanover in Germany. During this period, her research focused on “Self-supported 3D Assemblies of Cesium Lead Bromide perovskite nanocrystals.”
Dr. Dubey’s main research interest is in the domain of catalysis, particularly focused on the development of cutting-edge photo/electro-catalysts. Her research endeavors leverage advanced High Throughput Combinatorial Methods and incorporate surface studies employing cutting-edge microscopic tools in conjunction with machine learning. This multifaceted approach holds the promise to mitigate environmental challenges stemming from greenhouse gases, notably methane.
