Up Against Odds: The Story of an Indian Researcher

Abstract

The story of an Indian researcher is the scientific journey of a rural youth who tops in high school and is motivated by his teachers to study science. It depicts his fight against all odds to carry out his research activity in India after his training abroad. It is written to inspire other young Indian scientists who face the dilemma of working in India after their training in world class universities in Europe or America. It is a personal appraisal of author's own research.
