Polis, Sweets & Tears behind every bite โค๏ธ ๐ญ โToday, my heart broke when I saw an 80-year-old got pushed into hardship. Abandoned by his own daughter who now lives in London, he has taken up selling sweets and polis on the busy trains of Chennai, to support himself and his wife. His wife, in her late 70s, lovingly prepares them at home, and he walks out with dignity to sell what her hands create. I tasted them โ and believe me, they are pure, divine, and filled with love. If you come across him, donโt just buy a sweet or a poli โ buy his strength, his resilience, his unbroken spirit. And if you wish to support, please reach out to his contact number and place an order (In Chennai). Sometimes, the best food carries the weight of untold stories. Letโs not let our elders feel abandoned in their final years. โค๏ธ
"India has initiated the processย to develop Electric Hansa (E-Hansa),ย a next-generation two-seater electric trainer Aircraft. The new aircraft will be indigenously developed by the #CSIR institute of "National Aerospace Laboratories" (NAL) Bengaluru. Itย is expected to cost roughly half the price of a comparable imported trainer aircraft".
Group Captain Subhash Shuklaโs Space mission to the International Space Station (ISS) will include seven microgravity experiments, further boosting Indiaโs Space science profile.
To strengthen Indiaโs biomanufacturing capabilities, proposed the creation of a "Global Science Talent Bridge" to attract the best global researchers and innovators.
Highlighted the PM Sh @narendramodiโs "Mann Ki Baat"ย advice to openย 37 CSIR labs to students. :Joint Review meeting of Science Ministries and Departments

โก The sodium battery game is ON โ and itโs global! ๐๐
From raw materials to full battery packs, the value chain is heating up, and CIC energiGUNE is right in the middle of the action.
This isnโt the future. This is now. ๐ฅ
NEWS: China's CATL today launched a new brand for its sodium-ion batteries, Naxtra, which it said would go into mass production in December, and a second generation of its fast-charging battery for EVs that can add 520 km (323 miles) of range in five minutes of charging.
CATL: โWe have achieved a breakthrough not only in terms of energy storage density and cost, but also found a new key to environmental protection.โ
The new battery has an energy storage density of 175 watt-hours per kilogram, nearly on par with the 185Wh per kg performance of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries that are currently used in most Chinese-made EVs.
The company said its second-generation Shenxing battery is capable of ultra-fast charging in freezing temperatures.
In a cold-weather demo, CATL showed a Shenxing-equipped electric car charging from 5% to 80% in 15 minutes at temperatures of minus 10 degrees Celsius (14 degrees Fahrenheit).
CATL also teased a sodium-ion battery cell called Naxtra, which it said was more stable than traditional lithium-based batteries, and a series of dual-power batteries it said could equip EVs with up to 1,000km (621 miles) of range.

As the Western academic world faces an unprecedented funding crunch, with reports of university departments shutting down and entire research fields under threat, India must view this as a strategic opportunity to correct its low #scientist base.
US and UK universities are seeing mass layoffs, research cutbacks, and uncertainty in funding continuity.
Meanwhile, India is severely under-indexed in research manpower:
India: ~300 researchers per million population
China: ~1,800/million population
US: ~4,500/million population
Israel: ~8,000/million population
We are operating with a fraction of the scientific base needed for a country of our size and ambition. We do not even have the required scientist strength to support our national scientific missions such as AI, Quantum, Bharat LLM etc.
This is the time to act.
Let us launch a โ1000 Scholar Programmeโโa bold national initiative to attract top-tier Indian-origin researchers, innovators, and technologists back to India. Think of it as Indiaโs version of the โThousand Talentsโ plan.
Key features could include:
- Fast-tracked faculty positions in Indian institutions
- Attractive research grants and lab establishment support
- Access to interdisciplinary translational research clusters
- Administrative and relocation facilitation
With Gati Shakti for infrastructure, PM Gati Shakti for logistics, now is the time for ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ก๐๐ค๐ญ๐ข (RISHI- Returning Indian-origin/International Scientists for Higher Innovation in Science) for powering Indiaโs growth through talent.
Let us convert global academic uncertainty into national capacity-building.
๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐๐ง๐ข, an Institution of Eminence, welcomes senior academics returning from top-tier institutions.

My course #1KB738 Rechargeable Batteries started this week. In the first lecture, we discussed rechargeable batteries before Li-ion, namely lead-acid batteries and Ni-based alkaline batteries (Ni-Zn, Ni-Fe, Ni-Cd, Ni-H2, and Ni-MH). Although their market shares have been gradually taken by more advanced battery chemistries, such as the Li-ion technology, we can still learn from their development paths. For example, most aqueous batteries suffer from severe self-discharge problems induced by the narrow water stability window of 1.23 V. Those aqueous batteries with an operating window wider than 1.5 V, i.e., Pb-acid and Ni-Zn, benefit from the anticatalytic effect of Pb and Zn, which significantly delays the onset of hydrogen evolution. In nonaqueous batteries, an effective solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) does a similar job by kinetically limiting further electrolyte reduction.
