Hola Amigos,
I’m Kishalay Das (কিশলয় দাস), in Bengali, “Kishalay” beautifully means the tender new leaves of spring, symbolizing growth and new beginnings. If you find it a bit tricky to pronounce, you can simply call me KD.

I am a Prime Minister Research Fellow at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, and working as a part of Complex Networks Research Group (CNeRG) Group, working under the supervision of Prof. Niloy Ganguly and Prof. Pawan Goyal.
I have completed M.Tech (2020) from the Department of Computer Science and Automation (CSA) at Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore and B.Tech (2012) from Meghnad Saha Instiute Of Technology, Kolkata. During my masters, I was fortunate to work under supervision of Prof. M.N.Murty in the domain of Representation Learning on Graphs and Hyper graphs.
Prior to joining M.Tech, I spent wonderful years working with Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO), Tata Consultancy Services and Accenture Pvt. Ltd.

I am broadly interested in Graph Representation Learning, Geometric Deep Learning and Generative Modeling, with a particular focus on their applications in AI for Science and AI for Medicine. My doctoral research centers on developing AI methods for 3D material generation and property prediction. Learn about my research: Research Statement.

In my free time, I create educational content on YouTube: My Youtube Channel.
