I am truly honored and deeply grateful to have been selected as a recipient of the prestigious Sun Pharma Science Scholar Award. Dedicating this award to Saravanabhavan Thangavel and the team for their constant support. Thanks to Sun Pharma for giving me this opportunity.

If students tell me they want to get a PhD, I will support them and write them a letter. But I also tell them, because no one told me at age 21-22: -- You will spend your twenties making poverty wages while your peers start getting salaries, raises, bonuses, etc.; -- You may
