The synthesized\/deposited inorganic materials will be characterized by optical, scanning electron, transmission electron and scanning probe microscopies, and X-ray diffraction. This work could lead to new knowledge\/methods in the synthesis of useful inorganic hybrid materials.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Email:\u00a0<\/strong>abhiteja(at)huskers.unl.edu<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Awards and achievements:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>1.<\/strong>\u00a0 Honorable Mention for the 2017-2018 Outstanding Graduate Research Assistant Award by the Dept. of Chemistry, University of Nebraska\u2013Lincoln.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2.<\/strong>\u00a0 Best Poster Award Winner at the 2018 MRS Spring Meeting &amp; Exhibit, Phoenix, AZ, April 2018.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>GSA Travel Award, University of Nebraska-Lincoln &#8211; Spring 2018.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4.<\/strong>\u00a0 Citation for Excellence in Teaching Chemistry, Dept. of Chemistry, University of Nebraska-Lincoln &#8211; Spring 2017.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5.<\/strong>\u00a0 Erasmus Mundus Scholarship for Masters &#8211; 2010.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6.<\/strong>\u00a0 Awarded University Gold Medal for all round academic excellence in Bachelors in Pharmacy,\u00a0 Vinayaka Missions University &#8211; 2010.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Publications from graduate research:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>10.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>Bowen, J.J.; Rose, M.A.;<strong> Konda, A.<\/strong>; Morin, S.A.* Surface Molding of Microscale Hydrogels with Microactuation Functionality.<em>Angew.
