I had taken break from #scicomm#foldscope activities to focus on finishing #PhD.
Happy to share that I have successfully defended my thesis and I am officially 'Dr.' now!
I'll be back doing what I like- science, history, learning and sharing! #Science#sciencetwitter
“Children are not things to be molded, but are people to be unfolded.” Foldscope workshop #Agra hosted by @DeiDayalbagh@DEI_Agra with the Foldscope man of India @MMopatnsf it was a dream come true 100+ kids
Thanks @Stempeer15 4 travelgrant helping me reach many @foldscopeindia

Sharing a glimpse- scope of science in Rural areas!
My husband's ancestral place lies in a village in Uttarakhand. I had discussed about @TeamFoldscope with his uncle during my visit last time and he being member of a local school committee was really delighted
What to light up your Christmas holiday 🎄- enjoy building this beautiful implementation of fluorescence microscopy (TIRF adaptor) on a #foldscope. Opens a lot of fun new experiments - will test this soon. Congrats Sangeeta and Jitendra @himdaughter@kvijayraghavan
Joy of holding a microscope for d 1st time can be seen on students faces. Students n teachers of Khan Abdul Gaffar Khan Urdu High school Manwat, Parbhani (Maharashtra) learnt to assemble n use Foldscope. 2maro they'll go on nature walk n observe. #scicomm#science#sciencetwitter
2day we took students on nature walk. It was fun filled morning. Students collected various objects n used Foldscope 2 observe them. I, @SameerUno n @o_imperishable showed how it can b used for in n out of school activities. We r hoping this will make #science fun. #scicomm

Saw salt crystallizing under a foldscope @TeamFoldscope.
I used some Nichrome wire to heat up the salt solution on the slide and used power suppley to power the nichrome wire.

Excellent find. Sometimes it is difficult to believe that a school student is making such amazing observations.
I too had found foraminifera in sand from Girgaon chaupati, Mumbai. % of forams in is high. U'll find few in every pinch of sand. #scicomm#science#sciencetwitter
