    #166: Indian Science History, Nuclear Physics & Cyclotrons ft. Jahnavi Phalkey

    Explore the untold history of nuclear physics in India, the rise of “Big Science,” and the complex relationship between science, institutions, and innovation.In this episode of Know Time, historian of science and director of Science Gallery Bengaluru, Jahnavi Phalkey, takes us through the development of nuclear physics in India—from early scientific breakthroughs to large-scale national projects that shaped the country’s scientific identity. We discuss the pioneering work of scientists like Homi J. Bhabha, C. V. Raman, and Meghnad Saha, and how their contributions laid the foundation for India’s scientific institutions. Drawing from her work Atomic State: Big Science in Twentieth Century India, Jahnavi Phalkey also examines: • The history of cyclotrons and nuclear research in India • How “Big Science” projects shaped modern Indian research • The evolution of scientific institutions and policy in India • The role and limitations of IITs in innovation and research culture • Why science education in India struggles with creativity and inquiry • The gap between scientific ambition and institutional reality. This conversation is not just about physics—it is about how science is learned, funded, structured, and sometimes constrained in India. If you’re interested in science history, nuclear physics, education systems, or innovation culture, this episode offers a deep and critical perspective on how modern Indian science came to be—and where it is heading. 🎧 Watch till the end for insights into how scientific systems shape—not just discoveries—but entire generations of thinkers.
