India is currently a world leader in this field (I know majority of us would not have an iota of idea 😢) through a Bangalore based startup called Pandorum Technologies (incubated at C-CAMP).
Last month, Pandorum raised $18M to move their flagship product, the Liquid Cornea (Kuragenx), into human clinical trials.
Instead of a solid plastic-like implant, they developed a photo-sensitive hydrogel. A surgeon applies the liquid to a corneal wound & then cures it with a specific wavelength of light. It acts as a biometric matrix that tells the body’s own cells to rebuild the cornea w/o scarring.
Sometimes it genuinely makes me wonder why we do not talk more about our own breakthroughs, & instead get so easily swept up celebrating discoveries that come from elsewhere.
Alok Maurya, a grade 4 employee of hardly any means spent savings of his life, took loans so that his wife Jyoti Maurya could prepare for PCS.
She became SDM, started affair with another man & allegedly conspired to get her husband killed.
She also registered a "Dowry" case against her husband and his entire family 13 years after the marriage when her husband caught her red handed & discovered the Adulterous chats
Now Alok is running from pillar to post for Justice. He says no one is listening to him.
The couple has 8 year old twin daughters.

My college best friend is preparing for UPSC for 6 years now (4 attempts). 3 years we took the same bus home, ate together, even were lab partners. She grounded herself initially by disabling all apps and limiting interaction. She is not even on Whatsapp!!

If your investment decisions are correct, wealth would definitely accrue; but very rarely in the time frame you expect. Market has it's own mind and your only option is to wait.
Extremely disappointed with mainstream media & top Indian newspapers on lack of Hockey coverage. Hockey World Cup starts tomorrow. India is hosting it. Been barely any articles even on our own players. We have brilliant hockey journalists. Give them some space please!!!
