All Moungi Bawendi cared about as a postdoc was how a material’s properties evolve as it progresses from a few atoms to bulk. What happens in the middle? “My curiosity wasn’t motivated by anything visionary. We just really wanted to know!”✍🏾#LINO25 www.lindau-nobel.org/blog-antibod...

Yesterday, Nobel laureate Gregory Winter described the moment he realised commercialisation was needed if his humanised antibodies were to benefit the broader public, but he did not expect to become embroiled in a patent battle. First report from #LINO25 www.lindau-nobel.org/blog-antibod...

Super lucky to be back at the 74th Lindau Nobel Laureate #LINO25, this time as a blogger. My 1st assignment was to write a combined report of two lectures by Chemistry laureates.
1. Moungi Bawendi (quantum dots, 2023)
2. Gregory Winter (antibody pharmaceuticals, 2018)

Come listen to me try to talk about the beauty & impact of patterns encountered during our lab hopping quest. At
@IIITB_official during their #Confluence25 on Jan 18.

Enjoyed my evening with Mysore's vibrant science enthusiast community. Met a govt school headmaster, a 6th grader who wants to become a scientist & her little brother who wants to join the army, a dance professor, a musician, a cog sci postdoc who is due to return abroad today🤎

Pleased that my first live event of 2025 will be at Mysore on Jan 4, in honour of Lise Meitner. Talks will be in Kannada and English, followed by a Kannada play on the nuclear physicist. Look fwd to meeting new ppl & testing if my Kannada aptitude has improved at all in 2024 :)

Kicking off my blue sky with this fun (I think) new video series. #scicomm #nobelprize2024
