After graduating from Science College, Calcutta in 1993, Professor Ghosh obtained his Ph. D in Inorganic Chemistry in 1998 at Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay for research on Fischer Carbene Complexes. He then spent five years as a post – doctoral researcher at the University of Notre Dame, where he developed a new synthetic route to hypoelectronic metallaborane clusters. He joined Department of Chemistry, IIT Madras as Assistant Professor in 2005.
