Professionally passionate, believe in the boundary-lessness of creativity, and love to flit between a high-tech optics research lab and a theatre stage!!
Proud to publish in one of the oldest, and indeed, legendary journals of Physics - the one and only Annalen der Physik - where Einstein published his four 'miracle year' papers in 1905! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…
Inspiring words by Prof. @karandi65 . Hope @RiseIISER can do justice to his expectations.
RISE Foundation IISER was honoured to be formally inaugurated by Prof. Abhay Karandikar,Secretary, DST, GoI, 🎤who shared his inspiring vision for deep-tech entrepreneurship in India. 🇮🇳🚀 #RISEFoundation #Innovation #DeepTech #StartupIndia #DSTIndia #IISERKolkata
This is one of the biggest ever international science conferences held in Behaviour and Evolution in India. And obviously the first time in Bengal. Two hundred international participants. But funds needed desperately. Any help available from @MamataOfficial et al.?
We hope we can get some support for @Behaviour2025 in #Kolkata from our state! Please help highlight Bengal's #wildlife #culture #heritage to our 600+ delegates! @MamataOfficial @wbtourismllc @Sunderbansnp @BengalScience

Great discussion at @JadavpurU with the University Innovation Council and Subhrangshu Sanyal of @IIM_Calcutta to set up a platform for pushing Startups in #sustainability solutions. Watch out for more info from @RiseIISER regarding this!

This is the world's biggest conference in Behaviour and Evolutionary Biology. Rarely such conferences are held in India. But, the organizers desperately need funds. Please help if you can. behaviourindia2025.in @abandopa @ghonada @RiseIISER
We are facing a #funding crisis for @Behaviour2025. Please help with sponsors, donors, funders, to make the conference a success! Please spread the word!
Great conference held at @iiserbhopal on nano and non linear optics last week. Enjoyed the interaction and the campus - which I saw the first time after 2018. Really sprawling, and will get even bigger! Next optics conference at an IISER will hopefully happen @iiserkol next year!




The 'Light Matter lab' opens up its store of magic with light on 'Open Day'.




Wonderful time spent with KV and JNV teachers with the 'Shadows' learning module in the Teachers Training Workshop organised by the @iiserkol @vigyanpratibha Regional Centre. Hope more such events happen in HEIs throughout the country! @Abhadra7




Workshop for demonstrating thinking methods to teachers - who have the most important job in ensuring humanity's progress, creating humans who can think and analyse on their own. I shall be taking sessions on 'Shadows' - which is essentially understanding latitude and longitude.
We begin the double workshops for high school teachers under the #VigyanPratibha project @HBCSE_TIFR at @iiserkol
The Summer Research Bootcamp flagged of yesterday! The first of its kind on @iiserkol campus, thanks to @qoutuhaul and @RiseIISER. Hopefully the start of a tradition with many more to follow!
🚀 A vibrant start to Summer Research Bootcamp 2025 at RISE Foundation IISER in collaboration with Qoutuhaul! From inspiring sessions on AnimalBehaviour to lively student interactions, Day 1 was a grand success! More to come as students decode the science of animal minds 🐜 🐶
Very satisfied with this paper - complete experiment + theory, done exclusively at the Light Matter lab! Possibly the first time simultaneous active+diffusive motion observed in a fluid (that too air) in orthogonal directions! iopscience.iop.org/article/10.108…
Wonderful initiative by the @iiserkol Alumni Association. This is the first time this is happening - hopefully will make a mark among students seeking a glimpse into specialized science knowledge. indiabioscience.org/columns/educat… via @indiabioscience
