Ep 17: Developing Scientific Temper! feat. Dr K Ratna
"The whole of science is nothing more than the refinement of everyday thinking" ~ Albert Einstein
In this episode, I speak with Dr. K Ratna - Secretary of the Dr. KV Rao Scientific Society, Hyderabad - on her continuing efforts to empower students with a love for science.
The Society was formed in 2001 with a view to promoting and popularising science among students. It was formed in the memory of Late Dr. KV Rao who had retired as Superintending Chemist of Geological Survey of India.
The passion of Dr. KV Rao by taking part actively in promotion of young scientists has been instrumental in bringing about this Society to promote scientific temper by making learning of science experiential and thereby encourage school students and young scientists to pursue a career in science.
Happy listening!

Ep 14: The Chemistry of Poetry! feat. Rakesh Tiwari (Hindi)
From being a fly on the wall, silently observing the world around, to understanding the synchrony between the science of chemistry, the art of poetry and the journey of life... this wonderfully talented poet and storyteller - Rakesh Tiwari - has come a long way and has far to go! I pause him in between his incessant yet incredible rhyming and listen to him unravel the tales of his highs and lows, his influences and observations, and his everlasting love for life.
The episode is largely in Hindi with a smattering of English. Happy Listening!
