[[File:Ncl-pune.jpg|thumb|left|National Chemical Laboratory]]
H. V. Thulasiram, born in Hirekodathakallu, Tumkur Taluk and District of the south Indian state of [[Karnataka]], completed his master's degree at [[Bangalore University]] in 1994 and joined the [[Indian Institute of Science]] for his doctoral studies which earned him a PhD in 2001.<ref name="Education and Experience">{{Cite web |url=http://www.ncl-india.org/files/Research/ScientistProfile/Default.aspx?menuid=ql8&Id=61&NCLEmpId=2403&UserId=77# |title=Education and Experience |date=2018-05-15 |website=www.ncl-india.org |access-date=2018-05-15}}</ref><ref name="Vidwan - Profile Page">{{Cite web |url=https://vidwan.inflibnet.ac.in/profile/47967 |title=Vidwan - Profile Page |date=2018-05-15 |website=vidwan.inflibnet.ac.in |language=en |access-date=2018-05-15}}</ref> Subsequently, he proceeded to the US where he did his post-doctoral studies at the [[University of Iowa]] during 2000–03 and at the [[University of Utah]] from 2003 to 2006. On his return to India, he joined the [[National Chemical Laboratory]], an autonomous research centre of the [[Council of Scientific and Industrial Research]] in 2008 as a scientist and serves as the principal scientist at the department of biochemistry.<ref name="Scientist Profile">{{Cite web |url=http://www.ncl-india.org/files/Research/ScientistProfile/Default.aspx?menuid=ql8&Id=61&NCLEmpId=2403&UserId=77 |title=Scientist Profile |date=2018-05-15 |website=www.ncl-india.org |access-date=2018-05-15}}</ref>
