Tuhin Roy
Tuhin Roy graduated from North Carolina State University (NCSU) with an M.S. degree in Applied Mathematics and a Ph.D. degree in Structural Engineering & Mechanics in 2021. Upon completion of his graduation, he continued as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Dr. Murthy Guddati’s group at NCSU working on guided wave inversion for the estimation of arterial stiffness from Shear Wave Elastography. In January 2023, Tuhin joined Dr. Elisa Konofagou’s laboratory at Columbia University as a Postdoctoral Research Scientist. He is engaged in research focusing on two main areas: Harmonic Shear Wave Elastography, aimed at characterizing tissue stiffness for breast cancer detection, and Pulse Wave Inverse Problems, targeted at characterizing vascular walls to identify cardiovascular diseases. His research interests include acoustics, signal processing, finite element analysis, and optimization for biomedical applications.
Tuhin joined the Columbia University Postdoctoral Society (CUPS) in 2023 and currently serves as the Chair of the Research and Professional Development (RPD) Committee for the 2024-2025 cycle. The RPD Committee plays a vital role in supporting the postdoc community by providing resources to enhance their current roles and preparing them for future career transitions. The committee organizes a variety of events, including exploring diverse career options, networking opportunities with professionals, panel discussions on women in science, immigration info sessions, talks promoting mental health and many more.
