26-March-2018: Department of Medical Laboratory Technology, School of Allied Health Sciences, Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE), Manipal has organized one day "National Workshop on Clinical Laboratory Research - A Multi Disciplinary Approach". Five parallel workshop has conducted in the same day. 
I have been invited to conduct a day long work on "Homology  Modeling of Proteins and 3D Structure Visualization." It was one of the wonderful experience. Thanks to the faculty, students (international level) and Head of the Department (Dr. Saleena Ummer: https://manipal.edu/soahs-manipal/department-faculty/faculty-list/saleena-ummer-velladath.html) for their invitation and participation.

National Science Day: 2018 @ JMC-Trichy

It was a nice experience to visit where we studied. Last Wednesday is a National Science Day (28 Feb 2018), and I had a great chance to discuss with 150 young science students. I have completed my B. Sc. Physics (1991-1994), and M. Sc. Physics (1994-1996) from Jamal Mohammed College (http://www.jmc.edu/index.php?mn=home), Bharathidasan University.  See below our group photo (not a complete one though) during one of our M.Sc. practical day.


Dr. Haja Hameed joined as a faculty in the same department, while we are all scattered in the entire globe. He organized a National level seminar on Solid State Physics and invited me to deliver a lecture.

The college management is more supportive and they spend good time with all the speakers. It was one of the awesome day to interact with young minds and happy to contribute to the institution, where I graduated. Expecting more and more interactions in future.
