SUMMARY:University Distinguished Lecture - From Curiosity to Discovery — The Power of Scientific Inquiry
DESCRIPTION:SRM University-AP is hosting University Distinguished Lecture #26\, titled “From Curiosity to Discovery — The Power of Scientific Inquiry”. The session will feature Prof. Anantanarayanan Raman\, Senior Scientist (Health & Biosecurity) at the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO)\, Floreat Park Campus\, Perth\, Australia\, as the distinguished speaker. \nThe lecture is designed to benefit students\, researchers\, and faculty members interested in scientific methodologies\, research innovation\, and the evolution of systematic inquiry. \nAbstract \nScientific inquiry’s strength and power lie in it being systematic and in the intellectual capacity to transform curiosity into a sound corpus of knowledge through observation\, testing\, and continuous iteration. This process energises efforts to distinguish fact from assumption\, solve intricate problems and convoluted challenges\, and shift towards ‘truth’ — the ‘scientific truth’. Greater clarity emerges because of newly accrued evidence. Scientific inquiry replaces conjectures with substantiations\, empowering us with a brilliant rational power to explain how the biophysical world operates and to arrive at reasoned conclusions. \nIn this presentation\, Prof. Raman will touch on the two key drivers of science — curiosity (the spark) and discovery (the fire). He will refer to two pivotal points of scientific inquiry: ‘logic’ and ‘epistemic openness’\, concluding with an analysis of how scientific inquiry has evolved and adapted under the post-modern era of globalisation. \nKey Details \n\nDate: Tuesday\, September 22\, 2026\nTime: 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM\nVenue: ALC-1\, 3rd Floor\, Homi J Bhabha Block\nTopic: From Curiosity to Discovery — The Power of Scientific Inquiry\nSpeaker: Prof. Anantanarayanan Raman (Senior Scientist\, Health & Biosecurity\, CSIRO\, Perth\, Australia
