Dr Daisy Das is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Precision Electrochemical Nanosensor Group at Tyndall National Institute, specialising in the development of electrochemical sensors for environmental applications. Her current research focuses on microchip-based sensor systems for real-time, on-site monitoring of soil nutrients—specifically nitrate, phosphate, and ammonium—to support sustainable agriculture and environmental remediation. She is actively involved in nanomaterial synthesis, sensor fabrication, and electrochemical performance evaluation, contributing to interdisciplinary collaborations in environmental diagnostics.
Dr Das’s core research interests include electrochemical sensing, nanomaterials, and sustainable technologies for water and wastewater treatment. She has authored several peer-reviewed publications, contributed to book chapters and presented her work at various international conferences.
Dr Daisy Das holds a PhD from the Indian Institute of Technology (ISM), Dhanbad, India, where her research focused on the electrochemical treatment of contaminated water. Her doctoral work involved in-depth experimental studies on the removal of fluoride, iron, arsenic, chromium, and coexisting toxins from groundwater, as well as heavy metal ions from mine wastewater, using electrocoagulation techniques. She also holds an M. Tech in Petroleum Technology and a B. Tech in Chemical Engineering. Prior to her current role, Dr Das was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati, India where her research centered on the development of electrochemical sensors for in-situ detection and quantification of agricultural pesticides and its intermediates. Her work emphasised the green synthesis of one-dimensional nanorods and vertically aligned nanostructures of metals and transition metal oxides, using bio-analytes for structural control and enhanced sensing capabilities.
