I was delighted to deliver a talk at Sree Narayana College, Varkala, as part of the TRENDZ Seminar Series 2025 organised by the PG Department of Physics. Speaking on “2D Materials for a Sustainable Energy Future” , I had the opportunity to introduce students and faculty to the fascinating world of ultrathin materials, their role in next-generation fuel cells, and how they tie into the broader vision of sustainable development. We discussed why 2D materials are considered the future-high surface area, tunable properties, and exceptional catalytic behaviour-while also reflecting on the challenges such as large-scale fabrication, stability, and commercialization. The interaction was warm, thoughtful, and energetic, and it was wonderful to see the enthusiasm of the students during their paper presentations. Sharing a few photos from the session, grateful to Smt. Malu for the invitation and the enriching academic atmosphere. Duty Certificate Link to drive On 18 November 2025 , I had the opp...
