FOUNDER, AYURXIV.ORG

ayurxiv.org

AyuRxiv (pronounced ‘ayur-archive’) is an open-access preprint repository for research papers in Ayurveda and other traditional medicine systems. By providing a platform for free and unrestricted access to preprints, AyuRxiv aims to accelerate the pace of scientific discovery, support evidence-based practices, and enhance the global visibility of Ayurvedic research.

As of October 2024, AyuRxiv currently houses 16,800 research papers from 14 different countries and 20+ research institutions worldwide. AyuRxiv is also supported by the Public Knowledge Project by Simon Fraser University, which - much like me - shares the mission to make research of all kinds more accessible.

RESEARCH STUDENT, RANJAN SINGH GROUP NANYANG TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY

TeraX Labs, Ranjan Singh Group

I am a research student at the Ranjan Singh Group in the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (SPMS) at NTU. I am also a researcher at the Centre for Disruptive Photonic Technologies (CDPT).

My current work is investigating the effects of the spatial arrangement of split-ring resonators (SRR) in metamaterial properties. In particular, I am investigating logarithmic spacing progression and its optimization of the Q-factor of metamaterials.

Work

FOUNDER, STEMONWHEELS

STEMonWHEELS is a social initiative in my home Uttarakhand, a community-driven project on providing a STEM education and resources to underserved districts in the mountainous regions of Uttarakhand. By equipping a van with a state-of-the-art laboratory, STEMonWHEELS aims to reach children in underequipped government schools and provide them with a STEM education.

STEMonWHEELS was kicked off in July 2024 by Pushkar Singh Dhami, Chief Minister of Uttarakhand. This project wouldn’t have been possible without the immense support from the Uttarakhand Council of Science and Technology and Agastya International Foundation. Today, STEMonWHEELS has provided an experiential learning platform to 12,000 students from 80 villages in the districts Almora, Champawat, Dehradun, and Pauri Garwhal.
