This award has been given to 11 scientists from across the country for their significant contributions to science and technology. He has made outstanding contributions to our fundamental understanding of host-pathogen interaction in Mycobacterium tuberculosis and HIV, the causative viral agent of human Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome AIDS. Prof Kanishka Biswas's research is primarily centered around novel thermoelectric materials, and Dr T Govindaraju's work is focused on the development of small molecule diagnostics and therapeutics.
Donnan of the University College of London. In Bhatnagar received the degree. Bhatnagar stayed for three years in BHU and during this short span of time he was able to create an active school of physico-chemical research.
Justice N. Bhatnagar is remembered with reverence in this University and will continue to be so remembered till this University exists. He spent 16 years in the Panjab University, Lahore and this period was the most active period of his life for original scientific work. While his major fields of study were colloidal chemistry and magneto-chemistry he did considerable work in applied and industrial chemistry.
In Bhatnagar, jointly with K. The balance was one of the most sensitive instruments for measuring magnetic properties. Bhatnagar did considerable work in applied and industrial chemistry. The first industrial problem undertaken by Bhatnagar was the development of a process to convert bagasse peelings of sugarcane into food cake for cattle. He had undertake industrial problems for Delhi Cloth Mills; J. Mills Ltd. Attock Oil Company in their drilling operations confronted a peculiar problem, wherein the mud used for drilling operation when came in contact with the saline water got converted into a solid mass which hardened further.
This solidification of the mud rendered all drilling operations impossible. Bhatnagar realised that this was a problem in colloidal chemistry and developed a suitable method to solve it. At the instance of Bhatnagar the company placed the amount at the disposal of the University. The grant helped to establish the Department of Petroleum Research under the guidance of Bhatnagar.
Investigations carried out under this collaborative scheme included deodourisation of waxes, increasing flame height of kerosene and utilisation of waste products in vegetable oil and mineral oil industries.
Realising the commercial importance of the collaborative scheme the Company increased the amount and extended the period from five years to ten years. His sacrifices drew wide attention. Bhatnagar jointly with K. This book was recognised as a standard work on the subject.
That the book is of a high standard is indicated by the most excellent review in Current Science by Professor Stoner, who is competent to judge. In s there were no appropriate research organisations for the development of natural resources and new industries. Thus Sir Richard Gregory, then editor of Nature, who after visiting scientific departments and universities in India in drew the attention of Sir Samuel Hoare, Secretary of State for India, to the lack of appropriate research organisation equivalent to those of in DSIR in Britain for the development of natural research and new industries.
Scientific activities, many of them having a direct bearing upon the development of resources of the country, are scarcely given the attention they deserve.
Raman, Lt. Seymour Sewell and Dr. Scientists and researchers should consistently work to enhance our position in global scientific research. When India turns , it should be a global leader ranging from Defence to Economics with strong scientific and technological inputs.
It is designed to study 20 different weather parameters and microgravity's effect on its nylon body. A black hole from millions of light-years away can now be imaged, but women continue to be given less than their due. The demand for security engineers, too, in the past year increased by percent.
