Vipul Gupta is an Adjunct Senior Lecturer in Chemistry at the University of Tasmania's School of Natural Sciences, where he conducts research at the intersection of 3D printing, analytical chemistry, and materials engineering. His academic positions include Lecturer (2021-present), ARC DECRA Fellow (2020-2023), and ACES Research Fellow (2018-2020). He holds a PhD from the University of Tasmania, an M.S. from Brigham Young University, and a B.Pharm from the University of Delhi.
His research interests span 3D printing, chromatography, microfluidics, material science, and separation technologies. Gupta's work focuses on developing commercially viable analytical platforms through interdisciplinary approaches combining chemistry, engineering, and biology. Current projects include 3D printing of glass, multi-material high-resolution 3D printing, and point-of-care analysis systems.
Analysis of his 15 most recent publications (2020-2023) reveals a strong emphasis on miniaturized analytical devices, 3D printed microfluidics, and advanced separation technologies. His work bridges fundamental materials science with practical applications in environmental monitoring, healthcare diagnostics, and sustainable manufacturing, particularly through innovations in polymer-derived ceramics and diamond-based separation media.
His scientific achievements have been recognized with numerous awards:
- Tasmanian STEM Early Career Researcher of the Year Award
- ARC DECRA Fellowship (2020)
- Australian Academy of Science SIEF Fellowship (2015)
- Brigham Young University Roland K. Robins Fellowship (2012)
- The Royal Society of Tasmania Peter Smith Medal
- Selection as one of Australia's top 13 young researchers
Gupta actively supervises doctoral students working on field-deployable analytical platforms, 3D printed microfluidic systems, and novel materials for separation science. His research is supported by multiple ARC grants totaling over $7 million, including the ARC Training Centre for Hyphenated Analytical Separation Technologies ($6.3 million) and the Portable and field-deployable analytical platforms for water monitoring project ($563,855). He also co-founded 3DMADe (3dmade.com.au) and authored the book '3D Printing in Chemical Sciences,' demonstrating his commitment to translating research into practical applications and industry partnerships.
