UG Journal Club Begins....

Come August 1 and you notice yet another euphoria within the usually silent corners around the old Aerospace building, a bunch of young minds exuberant with ambition and aspirations- the "new" undergraduates have arrived!

With the objective of broadening the vision of these young minds, the "UG Journal Club" began on August 3, providing an extensive platform for the older undergraduates to share knowledge and inspiration gained during their summer internships with peers as well as the new undergraduates.

The inaugural session witnessed 4 presentations, which included lively descriptions of topics and subjects that included genetic cloning, active galactic nuclei, transcendental number theory and tokamak. It was quite heart-warming and enthusing to see the new undergraduates interact with the speakers and ask several brilliant questions.

Indeed, the entire session was an amazing roller-coaster ride into the richness of our scientific knowledge- something that was cherished by one and all.
