20th June 2024 — a date I’ll remember for the rest of my life. The day the IISER dream finally came to an end.
It wasn’t easy being at IISER Kolkata — mentally, emotionally, academically. But now, as I look back, there’s this strange nostalgia that washes over me. The struggle, the long nights, the people who stood by me — it all feels like memories from a distant battlefield. Like a soldier remembering his comrades from a war long past.
Today, I sit on the grass in a sunny park in Berlin, wondering how things have evolved. It’s been 6 years since I first joined IISER, and a year since I left. So much has changed, from a 12th pass out, who had never left home alone to a young physicist in a foreign land, it's been a long journey and yet, life goes on...
Being an aviation enthusiast and a frequent flyer both on Air India and Boeing 787 (be it Air India, Ethiopian or erstwhile Vistara); the tragedy of AI171 hits close to home for me. I am at a loss of words.
Speedy recovery to those injured! RIP to those lost🕯️
Hi All, how are you doing? This channel just crossed 1K subs, which kind of amazes me as I largely run this channel as a collection of my experiences. I am thankful to the folks who have found the videos worth watching!
Best part of IISER-K? The brothers that I made along the way. Keep grinding guys! Also major missing and greetings to SB and SG from this side of the pond.
It’s Sakura season again! One of my best memory of IISER Kolkata is cycling around the campus, in spring with flowers covering the streets, while listening to Japanese Sakura songs.
Hi Everyone! Hope you are doing great. Here's a comprehensive video on the differences between doing a PhD in Europe Vs US by Dr. Ganguli. I'd recommend you watch his channel if you want to know more about academia by an experienced researcher.
