Deepak Kumar is a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, USA. His work involves the development of thin conductive film, integration of these methods with devices using clean room technology, characterizing device behavior through a novel, in-house-built controlled characterization platform, and analyzing the results to unravel the mechanisms governing performance limits and failure modes.

Dr. Nooruddin Ansari is a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Texas A & M University, Qatar. He is currently working on the development of steels, Ti, Al, and Mg alloys through additive manufacturing, with a focus on investigating their mechanical and corrosion behavior across different environments.
