About

Hello,

This is Dr. Samrat Dutta. Welcome to my site.

I am a Principal Investigator and Associate Professor of Chemistry at Xavier University of Louisiana, New Orleans . I am an alumnus of University of Iowa (PhD),University of Maryland (Fellowship), and University of Pittsburgh (Post Doctoral).

My research encompasses a wide variety of subjects ranging from green solvents to surveying gas emissions from wetlands using experimental tools of physical chemistry, organic chemistry, and engineering. A part of my research focus on early detection of diseases and drug delivery.

I am also a teacher and enjoy teaching. I use modified Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL) to teach Physical Chemistry, General Chemistry, and Environmental Sciences. Research incorporated in classroom is an important part of my teaching endeavors.
