Dr. Pankaj Sagar

With a strong academic foundation rooted in the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), I embarked on my journey in the realm of cryogenics instrumentation. My doctoral degree was pursued at the Department of Instrumentation and Applied Physics (IAP), IISc Bengaluru, followed by enriching post-doctoral studies at the Centre for Cryogenic Technology (CCT), IISc Bengaluru, and the University of Twente, Netherlands.

Over the course of my career, I have contributed to over 20 articles in esteemed international journals and conferences, reflecting my commitment to knowledge dissemination. My research prowess has been recognized with the SIRE-Fellowship for international research by DST (SERB) and the Young Scientist Research Award (YSRA) by the Board of Research in Nuclear Science (BRNS-DAE).

My research interests are diverse yet interconnected, focusing on the design and development of cryogenic sensors for space applications, the innovation of techniques for non-destructive evaluation of SRF cavities, and the design of cryostats and cryo-compatible systems. This broad spectrum of research has allowed me to delve deep into the intricacies of cryogenics and make meaningful contributions to the field.
