Pratikshya Jena
About:
She did her Master's from BHU and is currently pursuing her Ph.D. from IIT (BHU) . She mainly uses coarse-grained method or field theoretic formalism to study the ordering kinetics or growth kinetics and steady state properties of the systems of self-propelled particles in a clean as well as disordered environment using numerical simulation and linearized calculation to understand such active systems.

Partha Sarathi Mondal
About:
Partha Sarathi Mondal holds a Bachelor's and Master's degree from The University of Burdwan. Currently, he is pursuing his Ph.D. under the guidance of Dr. Shradha Mishra. His research is centered around investigating the dynamical properties of particles and characterizing novel structures that emerge in mixtures composed of two different types of particles possessing different symmetries.

Divya Kushwaha
About:
She did her M.Sc. in Physics from BHU. She is pursuing her Ph.D. in the field of Active Brownian Particles Theory. Main focus of her Ph.D. work is on Binary Mixtures and their response to the various tuning parameters of the studied system. She uses numerical techniques to understand the collective behavior of a system comprising of interacting self propelled and passive particles. Her research area encompasses topics like the dynamics of effective interaction between the constituent particles of binary mixtures.

Anish Kumar
About:
He did his Master's from IIT (BHU) Varanasi and is currently studying the cooperative behaviour of systems of asymmetric active particles using Viscek based algorithms . He has been awarded the prestigious Prime Minister's Research Fellowship in 2022. His work has extensions to the application of machine learning algorithms to understand non equilibrium statistical models .

Abhra Puitandy
About:
He did his Master's from BHU and is currently working on dynamics of single particle behaviour in a system strutted with parametrized obstacle orientations. His study also deals with the behaviour of a non equilibrium statistical system in response to disorder and characterizing the exponents that may arise out of the ordering insuch systems.

Arun Kumar
About:
He is a research scholar at IIT BHU, currently working on the theory of active Brownian particles in complex systems, where he studies the collective motion of the system. He primarily uses particle-based simulations to investigate various parameters.

Mohit Anand Madhesia
About:
He is a research scholar at IIT BHU . He has done his masters from University of Allahabad . currently engaged in exploring complex systems, with a particular focus on phase transitions in Vicsek–Brownian mixture systems. His work investigates the nature of ordering that emerges in such systems, aiming to understand how collective motion and stochastic dynamics interact to produce various ordered or disordered phases. He is also involved in statistical language modeling, where he explores probabilistic frameworks that capture patterns and structures in natural language.

Riya Singh
About:
She did her Master’s from IIT BHU and is currently pursuing her Ph.D. at the same institute. Her research focuses on Ising model simulations using the Metropolis algorithm and she is also exploring reinforcement learning to study natural phenomena such as homing and navigation in complex environments.
