I am writing to invite for a get-together meeting on 30.10.2018 AN remembering this year’s Nobel Prizes. Please find the attachment, the brochure of the event “SOLASTA” organized by First Years Students (XERXES Club) of Department of Physics. It would be our privilege if you could find some time to spend and interact with our students. Expecting your gracious presence and blessings for the event...


 Science Fest at Kendriya Vidyalaya and National Seminar at Department of Chemistry, University of Kerala
Two of the recent program which I was fortunate to attend was Science Fest at Kendriya Vidyalaya, Pangode and National Seminar at Department of Chemistry, University of Kerala. On 4th and 5th October 2018, I was appointed as Judge for selecting 17 students from all Kendriya Vidyalaya in Kerala for National Science Fest. There were around 150 participants presenting their ideas, innovations and data analysis. It was a nice time to watch the students present in style with clarity to the jury members. I learned that the breeding they have in KV is definitely different from what we see in state-governed schools. I don’t say that students from the state governed school are inferior to them but I would like to comment that Students who presented from KV have a genuine skill to be present their ideas is an organised manner. I have seen that innovations presented are quite novel and their passion to know things more are evident. I congratulate the teachers in KV for their dedication towards work. Especially I would like to thank Sukesh sir for the hospitality he rendered to me during my stay over there. Attaching some photos of the same...








Letter of Appreciation


Now the next program which I attended was on 11 October 2018.

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...

A Moment of Grace and Responsibility In the sacred silence of a church, we often see a priest standing before the congregation. He may not always be the wisest, the most talented, or the most scholarly in the scriptures. Yet, once chosen to stand in that space, he carries a responsibility, not of perfection, but of presence. He becomes a vessel, entrusted to speak, to guide, and to serve. These words, shared by Nazeeb Sir, deeply resonate with me. Today, I stood before an august gathering that included the respected IQAC Director and faculty members from across the University, not as the most accomplished, but as one entrusted with a message. It is not position, but purpose that calls us to speak. And when chosen, we must honour that moment with humility and readiness. The occasion was the One-Day Workshop on Content Creation on SWAYAM Platform , organized by the Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC), University of Kerala, held on 20th June 2025 at CLIF, Kariavattom Campus . I had the...

🌟 Kudos to Dr. Rakhi R. B., our proud alumna of the Department of Physics, University of Kerala. She has once again made it to the Stanford University-Elsevier “Top 2% Scientists of the World” list, based on the August 2025 update of the Ioannidis standardized citation database (DOI: 10.17632/btchxktzyw.8). This recognition covers both career-long impact up to 2024 and single-year citation influence for 2024, highlighting her global standing in nanomaterials and energy research. 👏 What makes this truly remarkable is that it is the 6th consecutive year she has retained her place in this prestigious global list, reflecting sustained excellence, consistent contributions, and leadership in research. Kudos to Dr. Rakhi for bringing such glory. We are all proud of her achievements and wish her continued success in her scientific journey. 🌹✨ The Stanford–Elsevier Top 2% Scientists of the World (2025 update) has once again brought pride to the University of Kerala with the inclusion of two...
