- Nikhil Gupta is a materials scientist, researcher, and professor based in Brooklyn, New York. Gupta is a professor at New York University Tandon School of Engineering department of mechanical and aerospace engineering. He is an elected Fellow of ASM International and the American Society for Composites. He is one of the leading researchers on lightweight foams and has extensively worked on hollow particle filled composite materials called syntactic foams. Gupta developed a new functionally graded syntactic foam material and a method to create multifunctional syntactic foams. His team has also created an ultralight magnesium alloy syntactic foam that is able to float on water. In recent years, his work has focused on digital manufacturing methods for composite materials and manufacturing cybersecurity. Gupta has appeared on Discovery Channel and in National Geographic as a materials science expert, particularly for lightweight materials. In 2012, Gupta explained the science behind athletic helmet construction as part of a National Science Foundation-sponsored video featured on NBC Learn during the 2012 Summer Olympics, which was a series of 10 videos that had more than 125 million views and won a Telly Award.
