Manas Sutradhar, Ph. D. (2008) in Inorganic Chemistry, University of Calcutta, India. During 2009-2011, MS was a Deutscher Akademischer Austausch Dienst (DAAD) Post-doctoral research at the Institut für Anorganische Chemie und Analytische Chemie, Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz, Germany. In 2011, MS joined as Post-doctoral research associate at Instituto Superior Técnico, Universidade de Lisboa, Portugal. He received a Post-Doc grants from Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT) Portugal. Currently, MS is an Assistant Professor at Universidade Lusófona, Lisbon, Portugal. During his research career MS published 76 papers in international peer review journals (including 3 Reviews + 1 Reference Module) with more than 2500 citations with h-index 30 (ISI Web of knowledge). He is the first author in > 50 papers including corresponding author in 40 papers. In addition, he has 11 book chapters in books with international circulation and one patent. He edited two books “Vanadium Catalysis” from RSC and “Catalysis for a Sustainable Environment” from Wiley International. He is the associate editor of Frontiers of Chemical Biology (Bioinorganic Chemistry section) and served as guest editor for several special issues in Catalysts and in Frontiers in Chemistry. The major contribution of his research work is in the areas of Metal-coordinated chemistry of vanadium complexes and their applications in oxidation catalysis and biological activities (antidiabetic, anticancer properties etc). His research interest also includes synthesis of polynuclear complexes with interesting magnetic properties, removal of volatile organic compounds and bioactive natural products.
