Let me introduce myself. I'm Shankar Balasubramanian pursuing my PhD in Materials engineering at Materials Research & Education Center, Auburn University. I did my bachelors in Chemical and Electrochemical Engg at Central Electrochemical Research Institute, Karaikudi, India. For those who not familiar with Auburn, a quick note; Auburn had a perfect football season in 2004 winning all 13 games which includes SEC (South Eastern Conference) championship & Sugar-bowl.
