Biswajit Mishra

Dr. Biswajit Mishra earned his master’s degree in Polymer Science from Gujarat University, India, and pursued his Ph.D. in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi. His doctoral research focused on the design and synthesis of functional crystalline porous materials, including Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) and Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs), for stabilizing nanoparticles, nanoclusters, and single-atom catalysts (SACs). During his Ph.D., he published 21 peer-reviewed articles in high-impact journals, such as Applied Catalysis B, Journal of Materials Chemistry A, and American Chemical Society journal. Dr. Mishra’s research explored advanced catalysts for green hydrogen production via water splitting, nitrogen reduction to ammonia, and oxygen reduction in metal-air batteries. His work demonstrated the advantages of SACs and nanoclusters over conventional catalysts, highlighting their electronic modulation effects and coordination impacts. Additionally, he developed nanofiltration membranes by integrating COFs and responsive polymeric microgels using polymerization strategies.

Currently, Dr. Mishra is a researcher in the MEL group at the Nanotechnology Center, CEET, VSB-Technical University of Ostrava, Czech Republic. His current research focuses on the development of advanced single-atom catalysts for electrocatalytic applications. He is also involved in the synthesis of functional porous support materials to stabilize SACs and is working on the development of magnetoelectrocatalysts to enhance electrochemical reactions.
