Professor Pradeep Mathur of IIT Bombay has been selected for the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Award for his outstanding contributions in synthetic organometallic chemistry and developing new types of clusters with applications in non-linear optics, catalysis and activation of organic compounds. A recipient of the Best Teacher Award of IIT Bombay, Prof. Mathur did his undergraduate studies in London and received his Ph.D. degree from Keele University. Prof. Mathur is a Fellow of the Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore and has been a Fulbright Scholar. He has been at IIT Bombay for the last 16 years as a faculty in the Chemistry Department. 

Prof. Mathur's work in correlating reactivity of clusters with molecular structure with the help of single crystal X-ray diffraction studies has led to the design of several new types of clusters which have been designed, syntheisied and found to be useful for new types of carbon-carbon bond forming reactions.
