Advance Analytical Techniques

Dr. Shahab Ali Asghar Nami received his Master’s and Doctoral degrees in Chemistry from Aligarh Muslim University (AMU), India, marking the beginning of an academic journey defined by rigor, innovation, and unwavering scientific curiosity. Soon after earning his Ph.D., he joined the renowned Department of Inorganic and Physical Chemistry at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore, as a DBT Postdoctoral Fellow, an experience that sharpened his expertise in frontier inorganic and materials chemistry. His career then expanded onto the global stage when he was appointed Senior Lecturer at Taylor’s University, Malaysia, through a prestigious Twin Academic Program in partnership with the School of Biomedical Sciences, The University of Queensland, Australia. This international engagement enriched his scientific perspective and strengthened his interdisciplinary approach. Besides Dr. Nami has also served as Visiting Scientist at Dongguk University, South Korea and University of Pecs, Hungary. Returning to India, Dr. Nami served as Assistant Professor of Chemistry at the Faculty of Unani Medicine, where he played a transformative role in bridging traditional medicinal principles with contemporary Bioinorganic Chemistry. Under his guidance, several M.D. scholars successfully completed their dissertations. He later joined the Department of Chemistry at AMU as Associate Professor before moving to the newly formed Department of Industrial Chemistry, where he continues to contribute substantially to academic and research development. A distinguished Synthetic Inorganic Chemist, Dr. Nami has more recently carved a prominent niche in advanced materials chemistry. He has established a cutting-edge research laboratory devoted to the development of multifunctional hydrogels, emphasizing intelligent, flexible materials capable of detecting ultra-low biochemical signals in real time. His work stands at the forefront of next-generation technologies for wearable electronics, point-of-care diagnostics, and sophisticated biosensing platforms. With a prolific research portfolio encompassing over 80 high-impact publications, Dr. Nami has firmly established himself as a leading contributor to modern chemical sciences. He has independently secured more than ₹80 lakhs in extramural research funding from premier national agencies such as CSIR, UGC, DST, and UPCST. His vibrant mentorship has guided several scholars to the successful completion of their Ph.D. degrees. Celebrated for his engaging teaching style, conceptual clarity, and deep subject mastery, Dr. Nami brings rich experience in teaching core Chemistry and Industrial Chemistry across UG, PG, and doctoral programs. Through his research excellence, academic leadership, and visionary scientific outlook, Dr. Nami continues to shape the evolving landscape of inorganic and materials chemistry.
