Maitrayee Ghosh

Postdoctoral Scholar

I am a postdoctoral scholar at the High Energy Density Sciences Division in the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in the Stanford University. I have received my PhD from the University of Rochester in 2023 in high-pressure chemistry. My research interests include theoretical and computational investigations of materials in both ambient and high-pressure regimes, that can be relevant for planetary sciences and inertial confinement fusion. I hail from Kolkata, India, and enjoy reading fictions and traveling in my leisure.
