Please read, share, and support articles on science and on the history of our science and our scientists. Our governments have forgotten them; we shouldn't. We wouldn't. #ForgottenIndianScientists
The heartbreaking story of Haque and Bose, two Indians who through their sheer genius gave birth to modern forensics.
Leave alone Bharatratna, they weren't even awarded a posthumous Padma - ANY Padma.
They died in penury. swarajyamag.com/science/the-fo…

Remembering today, on his birth anniversary, one of the GREATEST Indian scientists. Yellapragada Subbarow. Discovered the role of ATP and synthesised Methotrexate, the first anti-cancer drug.
Coming soon, an article on this forgotten GENIUS. #ForgottenIndianScientists

Like GNR, Subbarow should have got not one but THREE Nobel prizes - for ATP; Aureomycin & Diethylcarbamazine; and Methotrexate. Instead, all he got was racism and isolation.
Leave alone a Nobel, he wasn't even awarded a posthumous Padma - ANY Padma.

One of the most memorable scenes in Indian cinematic history, from Sagara Sangamam, featuring not one not two but three geniuses: Director K. Viswanath, actor @ikamalhaasan, and Music and Lyrics by the one and only Padma Vibhushan Ilaiyaraaja.
A perfect achievement. PERFECT.
A perfect achievement. PERFECT.

Remembering today on #WorldRadioDay, JC Bose, one of India's GREATEST scientists and the inventor of the Radio a full two years BEFORE Marconi plagiarised & stole the idea.
Leave alone a Nobel or a Bharatratna, Sir JC Bose wasn't even awarded a posthumous Padma - ANY Padma.

JC Bose invented the Coherer & the radio receiver in 1899. [Original paper rspl.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/65/413…]
It was THIS VERY diode detector that received Marconi’s Transatlantic Wireless Signal 2 years later.
Read the INCREDIBLE story of Marconi's CRUEL perfidy: cse.iitm.ac.in/~murthy/sirjcb…

Acutely disappointed that @narendramodi did not, in his #WorldRadioDay greetings, see it fit to even mention JC Bose and his genius that made the radio possible.
