About Me
Hello! I'm Shuvam, a BS-MS student at IISER Kolkata, majoring in Chemistry with a minor in Computer Science. My passion lies at the intersection of these fields – using computational tools to unravel the complexities of chemical systems.
From developing retrieval models for complex queries to computationally modeling catalysts using DFT methods, I thrive on tackling challenging problems. My academic journey is complemented by a strong interest in software development, algorithms, and data science.
Outside academics, I'm an avid Otaku, fascinated by the storytelling and art of anime and manga. I also enjoy contributing to open-source projects, participating in hackathons, and exploring new technologies.
