Debrupa Lahiri is a Ph.D. student in the department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering at Florida International University since Fall of 2007. She expects to complete her Ph.D. by Summer of 2011. She received her M. Tech degree in Materials and Metallurgical Engineering from IIT, Kanpur, India in 2000 and her B. E. degree in Metallurgical Engineering from Bengal Engineering College, West Bengal, India in 1998. She has seven years of experience in industry and research environment. She worked as a metallurgist in research and development department of Indian Aluminum Company, India for 2 years. Thereafter she worked as Scientific Officer in Nuclear Fuel Complex (NFC), Department of Atomic Energy, Hyderabad, India. She has experience in the fields of X-ray diffraction, residual stress measurement, dilatometry and SEM of materials related to nuclear industry from her past research activities. Her current research interests include plasma sprayed coatings, CNT and BNNT reinforced composites, bioceramics and polymersfor orthopedic applications and nano-mechanics of materials and biological substances. She has 18 publications in peer-reviewed journals. She is the recipient of Dissertation Evidence Acquisition Fellowship (2009-2010) from Florida International University during her Ph.D. program.
