C P Paul is leading a research group in the area of additive manufacturing and technology incubation activities at the Raja Ramanna Centre for Advanced Technology (RRCAT). He has experience in the research and development of LAM, from system development to its applications in engineering. His research programs focus on next-generation additive manufacturing systems and processes. He has been instrumental in promoting AM technology in India through collaborations with other national labs and reputed academic institutes by extending the indigenous-developed facility for experiments. He has contributed chapters to 26 books and published over 150 research papers in reputed international journals. He has recently authored a textbook on additive manufacturing for undergraduate/postgraduate students, faculty members, and practicing AM engineers. Now, the LAM (both directed energy deposition (DED) and powder bed fusion (PBF)) facility is available to industries and academia under incubation service. LAM-DED technology has already been transferred to three industrial partners (one established industry and two startups). He is actively contributing to the commercialization of RRCAT-developed technologies as Head of the Technology Transfer Cell and promoting technology development in partnership with industries and startups. He is also a professor at the Homi Bhabha National Institute (HBNI).
