Sourav Bhattacharjee graduated in medicine (MBBS) in 2002 from the Medical College and Hospital, Kolkata, India, and obtained his MSc in biomolecular sciences from Vrije Universiteit (VU), Amsterdam, the Netherlands, in 2008 while performing his major thesis work on investigating the pulmonary toxicity of airborne nanoparticulate materials in Edinburgh, UK. He obtained his PhD (2008-2012) in nanomedicine and nanotoxicology from Wageningen University, the Netherlands. Dr. Bhattacharjee joined University College Dublin (UCD), Ireland, as a postdoc in 2014. In February 2016, he was appointed assistant professor at UCD, where he teaches anatomy while continuing to conduct research in nanomedicine, drug delivery, and biophotonics.
