Dr. Ruby Ahmed | Chemistry | Best Researcher Award

Dr. Ruby Ahmed is an accomplished Associate Professor with a strong academic background in chemistry, holding advanced degrees culminating in a PhD focused on chemosensors. Her academic journey includes rigorous education in chemical sciences followed by post-doctoral and faculty roles in synthesis, structural analysis and sensor development. With over a dozen peer-reviewed publications in high-impact journals, her scholarly output includes experimental and modeling studies on fluorophore-based detection of nitroaromatic compounds, conductive polymer–based gas sensors, and crystal structure analyses toward environmental pollutant sensing. Her work has attracted several dozen citations and recognition among peers, with approximately thirty-seven citations recorded across eleven documents on research platforms, suggesting an estimated h-index in the range of 5 to 6. Her research interests center on chemosensors, nanocomposites, crystal engineering and environmental pollutant detection. In addition to research, she has served in key administrative and leadership roles—heading a chemistry department, convening university-level committees, organizing boards of studies and doctoral committees, and reviewing articles for Springer Nature. She has also acted as principal investigator on regional research funding projects. Her contributions have earned institutional recognition. Dr. Ahmed continues to advance interdisciplinary research in functional materials for sustainable sensing applications, mentoring students and shaping curricula. She remains dedicated to translating fundamental chemistry into practical environmental technologies.
