Research

My name is Sanatan Halder, and I am a PhD student in the Department of Physics at the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur. I have been working at the Soft and Active Matter Lab. My research focuses on active matter physics, colloids, non-equilibrium statistical physics, numerical simulations, and optical tweezers.
