Soumyajit Datta

I am a MS student at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER), Kolkata. I am physics enthusiast with a passion for research and teaching. I am interested in knowing what happens when we look into the smaller length scales (higher energy scale) than that we live in. This field of research is known as high energy physics. I have served as a teaching assistant for the first-year students at IISER Kolkata in two courses - (i) Electromagnetism and (ii) Introduction to computer programming. My role was to develop assignment questions, checking the exam copies and helping them solve their doubts and confusions. I am also a subject matter expert (SME) at Chegg in advanced physics. Besides all these, I am passionate about music, especially Indian classical and Western rock music. I am an amateur guitar player.
