Three decades of research output anchored on a single question: how do we make advanced technology reach the places it does the least good — and bring back the value it generates? Twenty-one Ph.D. scholars guided, twenty patents granted, six government-funded research grants, and a hundred indexed publications later — the laboratory keeps building.
Ph.D. scholars guided across Management Science and Engineering — at RTM Nagpur University, MIT-WPU, MIT ADT, Tilak Maharashtra Vidyapeeth, DY Patil University, and the Inter-Disciplinary School at SPPU.
