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. 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 and Natural Product Chemistry.
