Conversation with Anindita Bhadra

Anindita is an Ecologist and an Associate Professor at the Indian Institute of Science Education & Research in Kolkata: https://www.iiserkol.ac.in/~abhadra/Anindita.html.

She and her research group study the ecology of dogs in an urban environment. She is also an actress who uses theatre to express intellectual thought.

Namaste, Hola & Welcome from G.V. Pavan Kumar. I am a Professor of Physics at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Pune, India. My research interests are : (1) Optics & Soft Matter: Optically Induced Forces – Assembly, Dynamics & Function; (2) History and Philosophy of Science – Ideas in Physical Sciences. I am interested in the historical and philosophical evolution of ideas and tools in the physical sciences and technology. I research the intellectual history of past scientists, innovators, and people driven by curiosity, and I write about them from an Indian and Asian perspective. My motivation is to humanize science. In the same spirit, I write and host my podcast Pratidhvani – Humanizing Science.
