A few days back I asked one of my friends, what do you want out of a relationship? His answer was ‘I want to grow with the other person together‘. Sounds amazing! Isn’t it? Just like that song, ‘I wanna grow old with you’. However, later I was thinking about that. How he is going to do that? How he is going to grow with another person who is biologically, socially and most importantly psychologically very different in nature? Think about it. Almost everyone…
I still remember the words of Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray (Celebrated Indian Chemist) about research. He said ‘ Reseach is not meant to do for yourself, research is for the upliftment of people, of society.’ The story of Dr. Abhay and Rani Bang resonates exactly with the words of Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray. However, the story is not same for most of the researchers, especially medical professionals working in the public domain. Dr. Abhay Bang truly said- “unfortunately, researchers often do research not for…
Hurray! I just finished my first half marathon last Sunday. It was a wow feeling really! It’s been more than one year now I included running into my life. I never thought I could run more than 10 km. In fact, I never thought about running a marathon. It was just a try to keep my body in good shape. However, when today I look back to my start I see a lot of things has changed. My mentality towards endurance running has changed,…
Who is a superwoman?This is the first thing came to my mind while starting this post. When I searched in the dictionary I found- The definition of a superwoman is a woman with superhuman powers or a woman who performs well in her various demanding roles. Nature has designed women in such a way, when it comes to certain roles women are more efficient. Like managing multiple things, playing different roles in life. For me every mother is superwoman. Imagine the different roles of…
Last week I was in Goa, the paradise for tourists all over the world. According to a survey Goa attracts six million visitors around the globe every year. But what is it about Goa that makes it paradise for visitors? Of course, it’s beautiful beaches are a major attraction but that’s not all. The environment there itself is very calm and relaxed. So much serenity everywhere. On top of that, it’s cosmopolitan culture and food makes Goa even better. If you want to see…
What is the biggest contributor to Global Warming? You might be thinking about the emission of greenhouse gases from transportation or burning fossil fuels or deforestation. However, it might be surprising to you but cows and pigs are going to be the biggest contributor to global warming very soon. But why is that? We all are worried about CO2 emission and it’s devastating effects on climate change. But methane is even more dangerous. Heat-trapping ability of methane is much higher than CO2. Cows emit a…
Ok, close your eyes and think about a friend with whom life seems exciting and an adventurous journey. A friend with whom you feel energetic even in adverse situations, who is there beside you to support you, to criticize you for your mistakes. Oh! you have more than one such friends. Congratulations! So, what if one has no such friends. Mind it, a friend doesn’t mean, they have to be outside our family. Your parents can be your such friend, your spouse can be…

You know what is one of the major problems with Science in India, especially after the british era? We lack in scientific temper or that scientific environment among most of us. We failed to appreciate our own scientists who contributed immensely to science. Whereas the whole world admired their contribution, most of them remain a hidden figure in their own homeland. Amal Kumar Raychaudhuri is such a name among them. Have you heard about him before? If you are/ were not a student of…
Imagine a world where a simple cut in the hand results in the death of a person. Sounds very unrealistic and fictitious right! However, our own world was like that once. Before Alexander Flemming discovered Penicillin, people used to die from a simple paper-cut, knee injury, throat problem anything which can lead to an infection. Simple because we didn’t have any arsenal which could fight with bacterias. Then the revolution happened in 1928 with the discovery of Penicillin by Alexander Flemming and a new…
