Publicise your research on a Blog
The Concept
A lot of good research is carried out in Indian research laboratories and institutions of higher education. Most of the researchers don't find time to give publicity to their work, probably due to work pressure, though they love to see someone care for the same. However, the Indian media, barring a few, do not give much importance to the research achievements. In such a situation, the citizens are unaware of what's happening in the research arena.
Please have a look at the interesting stories so far published on the blog.
Why Marathi?
The situation is more difficult for those who read only in regional languages. I realised this while working in the research laboratory and decided to devote my time to bring these research achievements to the general public through exciting stories in a regional language - Marathi - a language spoken by 8 crore (80 M) people. I started writing a blog on this titled "भावलेले विज्ञान" using my language competence. Over the years, other media outlets such as newspapers and magazines have picked up some stories that are published here.
Invitation
If you are a researcher, please do let me know if any of your research has public interest. Please share your article with me (soft copy over the mail). I would make all my efforts to give publicity to the same from my blog in Marathi at no cost to you.
Condition: Your research that you wish to give publicity must be published in a prestigious journal.
If you understand Marathi, please visit the blog. You will find many interesting stories there. I am sure, you would start appreciating work done by Indian Scientists.
