Navinder Singh is a faculty member of the Physical Research Laboratory, Ahmedabad. He received a B.E. in electronics, and henceforth shifted to the field of theoretical physics. He obtained his Ph.D. in theoretical condensed matter physics from the Raman Research Institute, Bangalore, from 2000-2006. He then obtained his post doctoral training from IOP Bhubaneswar; Holon Institute of Technology, Holon, Israel; and the University of Toronto, Canada. His research interests include electronic transport in strongly correlated systems like strange metals, and the theory of (un)conventional superconductivity.
