Curriculum Vitae
BIOGRAPHY
Dr Arindam was born and raised in Kolkata, India and he did his B.Sc. with Biotechnology (Jiwaji University) and M.Sc. in Marine Biology at the Pondicherry University, Port Blair Campus (Andaman and Nicobar Islands). During his tenure as a Master's student he worked on the tidal variation of phytoplankton from Port Blair, Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
For his Doctoral degree in Marine micropalaeontology at the Birbal Sahni Institute of Palaeosciences (BSIP), India / University of Burdwan he worked on the Neogene microfossils and palaeoclimate of Andaman and Nicobar Islands. He had the opportunity to travel internationally (UK, Scotland, France, Germany, Italy, Greece, Thailand) and nationally to attend conferences and do his research.
His postdoctoral experience in India as a National Post-doctoral fellow (NPDF, 2017-2019) and Birbal Sahni Research Associate (BSRA, 2019-2022) at BSIP, India was to understand the Neogene climate of northern Indian Ocean. During April, 2022 he joined the Stable Isotope laboratory at Institute of Earth Sciences (IES), Academia Sinica, Taiwan as a Postdoctoral Researcher and worked on triple oxygen isotopes and silicon isotopes from diatoms.
He is currently working as a Senior Lecturer at the Geology department of Universiti Malaya, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia since March, 2023. Other than the teaching responsibilities his research is focused on the paleoclimatic variability during the geological history. He use microfossils (mainly siliceous microfossils and calacreous nannofossils) and their chemistry to determine patterns of global climatic conditions and ecology. He is also currently working on samples from International Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 342 (North Atlantic) and Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 378 (South Pacific). He is also the Supervisor of the Geology Museum, Universiti Malaya.
Dr Arindam is the Membership Secretary of The Micropalaeontological Society (UK) and alos nominated member of Risk-KAN 'Past4future' Working group.
