**Hyderabad, May 13, 2025** – Dr. Surya Prakash Singh, a leading scientist at the CSIR-Indian Institute of Chemical Technology (CSIR-IICT) in Hyderabad, has been awarded the prestigious INSA Distinguished Lecture Fellowship for 2025 by the Indian National Science Academy (INSA). This marks a significant milestone as Dr. Singh is the first researcher from CSIR-IICT and the city of Hyderabad to receive this distinguished honor.
Dr. Singh leads a research group dedicated to enhancing the efficiency of next-generation solar technologies. His work focuses on developing photosensitizers to improve the performance of dye-sensitized, organic, and perovskite solar cells.
In addition to his work in solar energy, Dr. Singh has also made significant contributions to biological imaging. He and his team have developed neutral, non-toxic, stable, and highly fluorescent ‘Bodipy’ dyes that are used for mitochondrial imaging in biological systems.
The INSA Distinguished Lecture Fellowship recognizes outstanding contributions to science and provides a platform for Dr. Singh to share his research findings and inspire the next generation of scientists.
