Dr. W. Dutta (PhD)

Dutta's boisterous and jovial nature makes the best companion on the numerous excursions, field trips and international travels he has made. This is a sharp contrast to the intellectual and scholarly nature that allows extraordinary performance which is well-documented across his career. On the field, Dutta is mindful & methodical; in the lab, sincere & organized. This combination has allowed Dutta to achieve travel grants for two international trips where he had presented works in front of esteemed members of the scientific community. A natural leader, Dutta has also found a keen interest in studying the various morphological characters and behavioural activities of Lepidopterans, especially butterflies.  This has fueled an already dominant passion for photography and allowed to win several national and international competitions with his skills
