    In this episode, we discuss how mobile phones are aiding farmers and changing agricultural practices.

    Nature India's 'Our mobile world' podcast series looks at the many ways in which the smartphone has changed India’s science-society dynamics and the way researchers work. We will look at themes ranging from smartphones as enablers of science and research in India, to digital health, digital illiteracy, research around mobile phone e-waste, the gender digital divide and innovations in healthcare, medicine, agriculture and governance. We've chosen stories predominantly from India but also have examples from other counties in the global south.

  • Episode 26: Breaking gender stereotypes in physics
    Subhra Priyadarshini looks at the gender question in physics, a discipline traditionally known as a male bastion.

    Sexism and patriarchy directly trigger inequities in science and research. These iniquities, based on gender, caste, age, or ability are increasingly being called out, questioned, and sometimes corrected in heartening and exemplary ways.

    In this episode of the Nature India podcast, we are talking about a group of women physicists in India who call such gender-based iniquities into question and push for change in a discipline of science traditionally considered a male bastion. We also get insights into the eighth International Conference on Women in Physics, happening for the first time in India, in July 2023.

  • Episode 23: वैज्ञानिक और उनके अनोखे कर्मक्षेत्र: दोर्जे अंगचुक

    शहर के जीवन से बहुत दूर, समुद्र तल से लगभग ४५०० मीटर ऊपर, जनवरी की कड़क सर्दी में जब तापमान शुन्य से लगभग २० डिग्री सेल्सियस नीचे चल रहा है,जहां आप केवल तेज हवा या कभी-कभी केवल पक्षियों की आवाज़ ही सुन पाते हैं, और जहां आसमान की सुंदरता से मंत्रमुग्ध हो जाते हैं। आज हम आपको वहीं लदाख के हानले में स्थित खगोल विज्ञान स्टेशन में ले जा रहे हैं।

    “वैज्ञानिक और उनके अनोखे कर्मक्षेत्र” में हमारे साथ हैं, इंजीनियर एवं एस्ट्रोफोटोग्राफर दोरजे अंगचुक ।अंगचुक १९९८ से, इंडियन इंस्टीट्यूट ऑफ एस्ट्रोफिजिक्स, हानले का हिस्सा रहे है। फिर उन्होंने एक दशक बाद अपना कैमरा अंतरिक्ष की ओर कर दिया और खगोल विज्ञान को कुछ प्रसिद्ध और लोकप्रिय चित्र दिए। और इसी कला ने अब उन्हें अंतर्राष्ट्रीय खगोलीय संघ में मानक सदस्य के रूप में स्थान दिया है।

    आइये सुनते हैं दोरजे अंगचुक की तारों भरी दुनिया की अनोखी कहानियां।
