Sundeep received a Dual Degree (BTech and MTech) in Chemical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, India in 2018. He became interested in research on lithium-ion batteries during his undergraduate studies. He subsequently pursued a PhD at the University of Cambridge under the supervision of Professor Dame Clare P Grey and the co-supervision of Professor Vikram S Deshpande and Professor Norman A Fleck. His PhD research, funded by the Cambridge Trust and the Royal Society, sought to understand the surface reactivity, dopant local structure and dendrite initiation in garnet solid electrolyte based solid-state lithium-ion batteries. During his PhD, he custom-built numerous setups for solid electrolyte fabrication and characterisation and established a solid-state battery testing facility in the Department of Engineering.

He is currently a postdoctoral researcher working on providing fundamental insights into some of the remaining significant performance-limiting phenomena in solid-state batteries.
