Biography

Dr. Gopalakrishnarao Parthasarathy is currently working as Chief Scientist at CSIR- National Geophysical Research Institute, Hyderabad, A.P. India. He has completed his PhD in Physics from Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore and Post-Doc Research work at University of Paderborn, Germany. Dr. Parthasarathy has initiated Mineral Geophysics program and Nanogeoscience research in India. His several seminal contributions in this area are with indigenously developed instruments coupled with modern spectroscopic tools. His structural and thermodynamic study of wide range of Earth and Planetary materials yielded many significant and nontrivial results, also have led to the discovery of several Rare Minerals, many for the first time from India, like Moganite, Calumetite, Geikielite, Zemkorite, Fullerenes, and Ferrous Saponite. Each of the findings has been used to constrain the understanding of geological processes responsible for their formation such as Mantle Metasomatism beneath the Wajrakarur Diamond Bearing Province, Bolide-Impact Processes during the Cretaceous-Palaeogene Boundary, and Fluid Rock Interactions beneath the Deccan Trap, Peak Metamorphic P-T- conditions of the Gondwanaland, etc. He studied mineralogical aspects of several meteorites that fell in India during the past decades. His studies were useful in unambiguous classification of the meteorites. He has been involved in studying the terrestrial analogues minerals relevant to the Lunar and Mars Science. He developed an innovative method of converting water soluble Carcinogenic Hexavalent Chromium to water insoluble less Toxic Trivalent Chromium by using naturally occurring ferrous Saponite discovered by him in Deccan Basalts. He has been involved in Innovative and cost effective developmental research in the area of Applied Mineralogy since three decades. He is life fellow of Indian Physical Society, Geological Society of India, Indian Geophysical Union, Mineralogical Society of India, life member of American Nano Society. Dr. Parthasarathy received honors includes PRL-Award in Earth and Planetary sciences, for the year 2003, PRL, Department of Space, Government of India, National Mineral Award in the field of Geology, A.P. Scientist Award- 2007, in Physical Sciences, Andhra Pradesh Council of Science and Technology and Geological Society of India M.R. Srinivasa Rao Award for Experimental Mineralogy and Petrology. He is member of editorial board in number of journals. He has published research articles in journals contributed as author/co-author.
