Sobre este podcast
Namaste, Hola, & Welcome from G.V. Pavan Kumar.
Pratidhvani (ಪ್ರತಿಧ್ವನಿ/प्रतिध्वनि) means reflection or resonance (of sound). Here, the aim is to resonate with knowledge & humanize science.
The podcast conversation has two themes:
1) Intellectual journey of scientists, philosophers and historians of science;
2) History & Philosophy of Physical Sciences & Technology
I am a Professor of Physics at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Pune, India.
I run this podcast in my personal capacity.
