An interview conducted by Arka Mondal of grade 8D with Dr. Prajesh Bhattacharya

It's has become a fashion in the World of Science, ‘if you don't know Nanoscience you are outdated’! Not to be left behind, the young scientists of NPSW of class 8D, thought what better topic to choose for their class assembly than Nanotechnology! The topic decided, work divided and it fell to Arka’s lot to contribute one segment of the assembly.

He decided he would do something different, why not try experiential learning? Fascinated by the applications of nanotechnology in the field of medicine, especially to the application, to bring back sight to the blind, he decided to conduct a live interview with a well-known Nanotechnologist. Dr. Prajesh Bhattacharya.

The different time zones, with Dr Prajesh living in California, proved difficult for him to go ahead with the live interview. But that did not deter young Arka Mondal, he hit upon a novel way to go ahead. He posed his questions to Dr Prajesh, got them answered and merged the videos using video editing. Lo! He had an almost live session.

Nanotechnology is a Science, Engineering and Technology conducted at a nanoscale! That’s precisely what our budding scientist Arko of NPSW did!
