Kinshuk Dasgupta is an Indian research scientist at
nano materials and composite synthesis of the use of nano materials.[2]
Recently, he pioneered in making armour panel protection named Bhabha Kavach against bullets of different threat levels that are light in weight using hard boron carbide ceramics that is hot-pressed with carbon nano-tubes and composite polymer.[3]
He has been awarded the prestigious Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize for Science and Technology, one of the highest Indian science awards for his contributions to Engineering Sciences in 2020.[4][5] He has also received VASVIK Industrials Research Award in Materials Engineering for the year 2020.|url=https://vasvik.org. He has also been a Fulbright Visiting Scholar during 2018–2019 at University of Cincinnati.[6]
