BARC Visiting Faculty inaugurates seminar at St. Philos

Mysuru: A one-day State-level seminar on ‘Innovations and Challenges in Nuclear, Chemical and Bio-Chemical Sciences’ was organised by the Departments of Chemistry and Bio-Chemistry (UG) at St.Philomena’s College auditorium here recently.

The seminar aimed at educating and enriching the students, faculty and research scholars in exploring the potentialities, problems and prospects in the fields of Nuclear, Chemical and Bio-Chemical Sciences.

Dr. Gulshan Relhan, Visiting Faculty at BARC, Mumbai , who inaugurated the seminar, explained the importance of future challenges in the field of science especially in nuclear, chemical and bio-chemical fields.  

Pointing out at the motto of the seminar, which is to encourage and throw light on future challenges in the field of science, he said that science is an evolutionary and a dynamic process, but not a stationary one. Dr.Gulshan, through his power point presentation, gave a bird’s eye view of innovations that took  place in the current century namely discovery of God’s particle (HIGGS BOSON) using larger Hadron collider.

He also mentioned India’s contribution to the world of science by citing the example of MARS Orbiter Mission (MOM) which made India one of a few countries in the world to enter into MARS atmosphere.  

He  gave a brief account of future challenges in science like splitting of water at room temperature, which if made possible can reduce the energy crisis. He also threw light upon non-fossil fuel based options for production of power.                           

Earlier, Dr.Ruth Shantha Kumari, Principal of the college, delivered the introductory address.

ONE COMMENT ON THIS POST To “‘Science is an evolutionary and dynamic process, not stationary’”

  1. G Srinivasan says:

    Science of manifestation of all phenomena is a dynamic process and therefore cyclic in its interactions that expose the phenomenal process.
    It is an axiomatic process that is completed in the very first cycle and it repeats in a sequence of cycles we call time. The first cycle is the simultaneous phase of the interactive cycle which unless completed manifestation process is not complete. The extraordinary axiomatic theory of Sankhya was composed by Kapillamuni 32000 years back and formed the core of the Bhagavadgita. It is precise, correct and eternal . In it all the fundamental particles are derived from basics and is more accurate in numerical value that in Physics.
