This office’s main goal is to communicate academic and non-academic opportunities to Postdocs, including the organization of soft skills workshops. The career development office also works in collaboration with the Research Support Office at the University.

I grew up in Kolkata (‘City of Joy’), West Bengal, India. After my bachelor’s in biotechnology from West Bengal University of Technology, I did my PhD in microalgal biotechnology and metabolomics from CSIR-Central Salt and Marine Chemicals Research Institute (India). I then moved to Umeå in Feb 2021 for my first Post-Doc to work on wood cell wall chemistry at Umeå Plant Science Centre (UPSC). We are using different chromatographic techniques to understand the changes in wood cell walls with special reference to cuticle and suberin. Apart from research, I enjoy reading, hiking, travelling, photography, listening to music and various podcasts, and discussing many things (based on my mood though). I am an introvert who talks a lot (sometimes). I joined UPS to connect with fellow researchers from different fields; and also to help and support my co-peers.
