	~~Prof.~~ Joshi received his Ph.D. in ~~Physics~~ from [[Allahabad University]] in 1962~~. Prof~~. Joshi's broad areas of interest are [[condensed matter]] and [[collision]] processes. His early research was in the study of [[phonon]]s in metals and insulators. Later, he studied electronic states in disordered systems and [[electron correlation]] in narrow band solids. He has also worked on [[Surface states]] and [[Segregation in materials]]. Joshi conducted studies on excitation and [[ionization]] processes in atoms, ions, and molecules. His research interests lie in strongly correlated electron systems, such as [[high temperature superconductor]]s, and also in [[nanotechnology]], especially electron transport in [[quantum dot]]s and [[nanotube]]s.
