Prateek Verma - Academic Experience

• Learning from diverse, world-class researchers is a blessing; I have honed my interdisciplinary skills and tried to learn good aspects from every researcher I have worked with. More importantly, it has taught me how to do quality research, approach writing papers, pick up problems, and, more importantly, be creative.
