Md. Shahabuddin, PhD
Assistant Professor, Department of Chemistry, DUET, Gazipur
I am working as a full-time Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry, DUET, Gazipur. I did my PhD on Synthetic Organic Chemistry (e.g. Asymmetric Synthesis, Helicene Chemistry) from Utsunomiya University, Japan in 2017. Later, I started my Postdoctoral research at the same university. During my Postdoc I tried to moderate HPLC Chiral Stationary Phase (CSP) using optically active helical molecules. My research interest are Asymmetric Synthesis of Organic Molecules, Catalysis, Green Chemistry, Environmental Chemistry, and Natural Product Chemistry.
