Profile

Dr Karthik NAGARAJAN

Software Developer

Dr Karthik Nagarajan received his Bachelor of Engineering (Chemical Engineering) degree from the National University of Singapore (NUS) in 2016 and his Doctor of Philosophy degree from the same university in 2020. His thesis was focussed on polymer translocation through a nanopore.

Subsequently, he worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign from 2020 to 2022. His postdoctoral research was focussed on agent-based modelling of microbial communities.

Subsequently, he joined CARES, where he currently works on air quality dispersion modelling.
