Santhi Ani Joseph was born in 1975. She received an M.Sc. in Physics (1998) with second rank and distinction from M G University, and then received a research fellowship from the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, India, for doctoral studies and completed Ph.D. in Photonics (2006) from the International School of Photonics, Cochin University of science and Technology. Her PhD thesis is mainly about the nonlinear optical characterization of materials. However, it also illustrates some experimental schemes and results of photo thermal techniques in liquid media. This was done under the joint guidance of Prof. V P N Nampoori and Prof. P Radhakrishnan. She was then awarded the University of Paris fellowship for post-doctoral research at the Institut de Chimie Moleculaire et Materiaux d’Orsay, University of Paris Sud, Orsay, France and another fellowship from the Inter University Attraction Pole of the European union at the Universite Libre de Brussels, Belgium for one year each. Currently she is working as a Lecturer at International School of Photonics, Cochin University of Science and Technology.
