With a PhD in 2008 from Tata Institute Mumbai, he has been a postdoc/visiting scientist at Weizmann Institute, Université Paris-Sud, Max Planck Institute for Complex Systems and at ENS de Lyon, a stay he regards as most fruitful and productive. His research covers a wide spectrum of topics in statistical and nonlinear physics: stochastic processes, fluctuation theorems, quantum dynamics, synchronization phenomena, and long-range interacting systems on which he has worked extensively. He aims at understanding how long-range interactions and/or correlations determine emergent behaviors of complex systems.
