Dr. Abishek K. Iyer earned his B.Sc. and M.Sc. from the University of Delhi. Dr. Iyer worked as a research assistant at Jawaharlal Nehru Center for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR) under Dr. Sebastian C. Peter where his research focused on the synthesis of intermetallic and organic-inorganic hybrid materials. In 2013, he started his Ph.D. research under Prof. Arthur Mar, at the University of Alberta, Canada. His research focused on developing rational design principles for introducing acentric building units to increase the chances of forming noncentrosymmetric structures.
In 2019 he joined the group of Prof. Mercouri Kanatzidis’s at Northwestern University as a postdoctoral fellow. During this time, he addressed challenges in developing new synthetic methods, designing structural principles, and growing crystals of high-efficiency optical materials as IR detectors for detecting air pollutants (CO2, NOx) impacting the climate and optical countermeasures for defense purposes. He has started as an Assistant Professor at the Department of Chemistry, University of Manitoba.
