Chayan Dutta is an Assistant Professor at Georgia State University in Atlanta, GA. He received his Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) in Chemistry at Presidency College, Kolkata, India, and his Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Chemistry at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Kanpur. He received his PhD in Chemistry at the University of Southern California where he investigated the molecular orientation and structure of hydrogen bonds at various interfaces using surface-sensitive non-linear spectroscopy. Chayan did his postdoctoral research at Rice University where he investigated nanoscale molecular transport processes using various fluorescence super-resolution microscopy and single particle tracking methods. Currently, he is building his research laboratory at Georgia State University in the Analytical and Biophysical division to study nanoscale transport and chemical effects of pollutants using various spectroscopic and microscopic methods.
