Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) are an emerging class of crystalline porous polymers constructed via reticular chemistry, offering a modular platform with tunable porosity, high surface area, and excellent thermal and ...
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a distinctive class of hybrid organic-inorganic materials composed of periodically arranged metal nodes and organic linkers. These materials have attracted considerable attention across ...
Soil organic carbon (SOC) is the largest terrestrial carbon reservoir (1550 GT), holding more carbon than that by biomass and atmosphere. Despite being a key component of the global carbon cycle, large uncertainty remains ...
This thesis attempts to analyze and further the conceptualization of the burgeoning field of transnational fiction through the literary works of Bernardine Evaristo, a Black British woman writer. The theory of transnationalism ...
Mitochondrial fusion and fission, along with the activity of the electron transport chain in neural stem cells (NSCs), play an essential role in regulating the metabolic demands of differentiation. However, the mechanisms ...
Membranes are fundamental to biological systems as they serve as physical barriers that enable compartmentalization and functional specialization of the cytoplasm. But membranes must undergo constant and regulated mass and ...
This research explores Human-Elephant Conflict (HEC) in North Bengal not simply as a challenge to conservation goals or rural development, but as an intricate socio-ecological crisis shaped by unequal power relations, ...
Transport of charged ions is vital for cellular survival. The required amount of ions for cellular systems is fulfilled through the membrane-embedded protein channels. Inspired by the function of ion transport and therapeutics ...
Cell–extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions are fundamental to maintaining tissue architecture, function, and homeostasis. Alterations in the biochemical or mechanical properties of the ECM can disrupt these interactions, ...
In an era of growing environmental and technological challenges, the development of smart materials capable of addressing critical issues such as pollution and waste recovery has become essential. My PhD research focuses ...
How do individual opinions, shaped through everyday interactions, give rise to large-scale patterns in public discourse and democratic outcomes? This thesis explores that question through two domains where opinions are ...
In this thesis, we consider the notion of finite type-ness or Postnikov completeness of a site introduced by Morel and Voevodsky. One of the important consequences of having a finite type site is the existence of an exact ...
N-heterocyclic tetrylene’s (NHTs) are neutral divalent species of group 14 elements, which show ambhiphilic behaviour due to a vacant p-orbital and a lone pair of electrons. They are currently one of the most rigorously ...
Oncogenic Ras regulates MAPK, PI3K, and RalGEFs signaling to control cell proliferation, survival, anchorage-independence, and metastasis in cancer. Ral (Ras-like GTPase) activation is known to be essential for Ras-mediated ...
This thesis presents a comprehensive study of the parameterized complexity of several graph-theoretic problems, with a focus on graph modification, separation, and vertex splitting. The investigation is primarily motivated ...
In the presence of a high magnetic field, nuclear spins serve as an ideal testbed for studying quantum correlations and open quantum system dynamics in various physical phenomena ranging from quantum information processing ...
Proteins are inherently dynamic entities, existing not as a single static structure but as an ensemble of different conformations. These conformations are separated by small free energy differences and reflect the important ...
Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have garnered significant attention for next-generation computing and optoelectronic applications due to their atomic thickness, tunable electrical and optical ...
Ultracold quantum gases have emerged as a powerful platform for exploring complex quantum many-body physics due to their tunability and precise control. Engineering interatomic potentials via external fields leads to a ...
Anomeric azido glycosides serve as crucial intermediates in N-glycoside chemistry, enabling the synthesis of glycosyl amides, glycoconjugates, N- glycosyl heterocycles, and N-glycosyl triazoles, among other bioactive ...
