The second chapter of the Biology Seminar Series presented by the Department of Biological Sciences, SRM University-AP, Andhra Pradesh will have Prof Pankaj Poddar, Professor, Academy of Scientific and Innovative Research (AcSIR) & Senior Principal Scientist, Physical & Materials Chemistry Division, CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory, speak on “M3: Microscopy, microbes, and materials”. The interaction of cells with Materials Science yields surprising inferences due to their sensitivity to the surrounding environment. Whether it is the study of cytotoxicity of various materials against mammalian cells or microbial cells, cells respond often in an unpredictable fashion when in proximity to the inorganic/organic materials. On March 27, 2021, at 11 AM, Prof Poddar will present highlights of this fascinating journey in his laboratory where he used various tools to look at the cells closely and invented a method ‘biomilling’ which has the potential for bioremediation in industries.

Since he was young, Prof Poddar had a keen interest in understanding the secrets of nature. After completing his PhD in Physical Sciences from Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi in 2000, he worked at the School of Chemistry, Tel Aviv University, and in the Department of Physics, University of South Florida. In April 2005, he returned to India and joined CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory, Pune as a scientist and started his research group. His early research focused on bio-inspired material sciences, microscopy of biological objects where his team investigated the interesting Physics of microbes and their interaction with the surroundings. Later, he worked on multimodel imaging, and drug-delivery systems for cancer cells using rare-earth phosphor nanomaterials, quantum-clusters, etc. Prof Poddar has been awarded with CSIR-Young Scientist Award in Physical Sciences, Scientist of the Year Award by CSIR-NCL, and MRSI- medal by Materials Research Society of India. He is also a fellow of the Electron Microscope Society of India, and the Maharashtra Academy of Sciences.

Dr Nimai Mishra, Assistant Professor, Department of Chemistry, SRM University-AP, Andhra Pradesh, accompanied by his research group encompassing students pursuing PhD under him, Mr. Syed Akhil and Ms. V.G.Vasavi Dutt have published a comprehensive mini-review titled “Amine-Free Synthesis of Colloidal Cesium Lead Halide Perovskite Nanocrystals” in the Journal “ChemNanoMat” (Wiley-VCH) with an Impact Factor of 3.4.

Colloidal cesium lead halide (CsPbX₃) perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) are emerging disciplines in research aided by their exceptional optical properties and remarkable colour tunability. Oleic acid and oleylamine are the frequently used surface capping ligands in colloidal CsPbX3 synthesis. The oleylamine plays an important role in surface passivation and maintaining colloidal stability. However, in the long run, it is accountable for poor colloidal stability because of the facile proton exchange. This heralds to the formation of labile oleylammonium halide, which removes the halide ions from the Nanocrystals’ surface.

Leveraging on the synthetic toolboxes developed from decades of research into more traditional semiconductor nanocrystals, lately, researchers are focusing on creating various amine‐free synthesis approaches to improve the colloidal and photostability of CsPbX₃ perovskite NCs. In this paper, Dr Mishra and his team encapsulated various amine‐free based synthetic routes of CsPbX₃ (X=Cl, Br, I) PNCs that have been reported so far. They reviewed this progress in terms of their underlying synthetic approaches, and post‐synthetic treatment steps.

Furthermore, Dr Mishra and his group analyzed the prospects of these perovskite nanocrystals in terms of their photo‐luminescence properties and device performances. Advancing, a deeper understanding of the role of precursors and ligands will significantly bolster the versatility of these amine‐free PNC materials.

Department of Student Affairs, SRM University-AP, Andhra Pradesh presents a session on “Examination Anxiety”, where Aayushi Sharma, the University’s Student Counsellor will enlighten the students on aspects of examination stress, and propose techniques to maneuver through this common psychological condition.

Examination anxiety is a widespread phenomenon that induces tension or angst among students while appearing for an examination. The discomfort spurts in several forms among individuals across spheres. Examination nerves, worry, or fear of failure are common for even the most talented student. Though varying intensity of stress is perhaps experienced among learners before and during exams, it impairs learning and adversely affects performance in examinations.

Anxiety disorders are prevalent and impact about 18 percent of adults. An estimated 25 percent of 13-18-year-olds experience anxiety. However, according to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA), only one-third of people suffering from angst seek treatment. Untreated childhood anxiety can trigger poor performance in all walks of life. On March 6, 2021, at 5 PM, Aayushi Sharma will be addressing this crucial phenomenon to help students exhibit their true potential.
