Biography:

Professor Vikram Jayaram received his BA in Natural Sciences from Cambridge University and his PhD from Stanford University. Following postdoctoral research at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory and the University of California at Santa Barbara, he joined the Indian Institute of Science where he was chair of the Department of Materials Engineering (2009-15), and Dean, the Division of Mechanical Sciences (2015-21). He is presently an Honorary Professor. His research interests have ranged over ceramics, mechanical behavior, processing and small-scale mechanical testing. His current ongoing programmes in which he collaborates extensively with Prof. Praveen Kumar and Pratt & Whitney R&D Centre focus on the use of cantilevers to measure creep in small samples.  He teaches courses on fracture at the Masters level and one on functional materials at the undergraduate level.
