SUMMARY:Serving with an attitude of gratitude
DESCRIPTION:Human life is undergoing significant challenges since the outbreak of Covid-19. Despite the chaos of this difficult time\, countless unsung heroes have come forward to pull the distressed out of their sufferings. Among them are Team Abhimanyu and Team Bheeshma\, a group of IT graduates from SRM Institute of Science and Technology\, Kattankulathur\, Chennai.

The main objective of the teams is to help the disadvantaged and vulnerable groups in society. They distributed groceries to 335 families of private school teachers who had lost their jobs to Covid-19 in Tirupati\, Vijayawada\, Nellore\, Visakhapatnam\, Chandragiri\, and Hyderabad. Not only did they provide groceries to government school students\, but they also offered a large quantity of hand sanitizers\, masks\, vaporizers\, and stationary items. The teams travelled across the districts of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana conducting food distribution drives and raising funds for medical treatments\, especially for private school/college teachers. Local newspaper “Sakshi” and ETV Network have featured stories about the teams and they were awarded mementoes for community services. The teams plan projects for educating the underprivileged and looking after the elderly in near future. Team Abhimanyu and Team Beeshma are perfect examples of old heads on young shoulders who sail on philanthropic voyages in spite of the challenges. \nAll are invited to the event on June 12\, 2021\, at 11.00 am\, and are encouraged to listen to the inspiring story of these empathetic young minds.

SUMMARY:Chairman-AICTE elucidated the changing scenarios of the education sector in the Post COVID era
DESCRIPTION:The Tenth edition of the University Distinguished Lecture (UDL) Series\, organised by SRM University-AP\, expounded on a pertinent problem of the current time\, “Higher Education in India in the Post-COVID-19”. Prof Anil Sahasrabudhe\, Chairman of All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE)\, delivered the Distinguished Lecture\, and Shri Satish Chandra\, IAS\, Special Chief Secretary\, Higher Education\, Government of Andhra Pradesh\, gave a special address. \n\n\nIn his welcome address\, Prof D Narayana Rao\, Pro-Vice-Chancellor of SRM University-AP\, set the context of the event\, emphasising on how the unprecedented COVID-19 crisis has resulted in the temporary closure of about 1000 Universities and about 40\,000 Colleges in the country\, severely disrupting the teaching and learning process and research activities. The transition to “Learn From Anywhere (LFA) happened overnight and people had to get used to it. National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 recognises the importance of leveraging the advantages of technology while acknowledging its potential risks and dangers. Online education calls for carefully designing and appropriately scaled studies to determine how the benefits of online/digital education can be reaped while addressing or mitigating the downsides. There is a need to establish a “Digital and online Wing” in the Departments of Education in different states of the country. \n\n\n\nProf Anil Sahasrabudhe in his Distinguished Lecture\, delineated that the use of technology in the education environment has been initiated in the Pre-COVID days. Platforms such as Swayam\, National Programme on Technology Enhanced Learning (NPTEL) came into existence to digitally bring quality education to everyone. Digital education carries a boon that no one can ignore\, i.e. making physical distance irrelevant in education. Digital education has the ability to reach students anywhere and everywhere provided they are equipped with gadgets and internet connectivity. Thus\, the Government of India has undertaken a nationwide project under\, Bharat Net\, Unnat Bharat Abhiyan to connect every corner of India through the internet. Prof Sahasrabudhe accepted that all subjects cannot be taught online\, especially lab-based practical courses that will have the need to attend physical classes. Music\, Drama\, sports\, other performing and fine arts\, which are an essential part of a pedagogical system\, cannot be studied online. Moreover\, a digital class can never replace the bonding humans tend to develop while working in close proximity. However\, it cannot be debated that the education system as we know it has changed. The future of education comes with a blended environment. Fortunately\, National Education Policy-2020 envisioned the change long ago and introduced a relevant policy to ensure the educational growth of the country. Multidisciplinary Education and Research Universities (MERU)\, Academic Bank of Credits\, National Academic Depository are some of the revolutionary changes that are going to benefit the next generations in the post COVID days. The government has already established National Research Foundations to support mega research projects\, which may need several crores of rupees. Prof Anil Sahasrabudhe emphasised that studying in one’s native language is an essential requirement that NEP looks into. Prof Sahasrabudhe asserted that proper administration\, governance and autonomy are some of the deciding factors for the education sector in the coming days. While concluding his speech\, he further elucidated AICTE’s initiatives towards the advancement of the education sector-Curriculum Revisions\, Project-Based Experiential Learning\, Faculty Training\, Industry Internships\, Students Internship Programmes are soon to be inseparable aspects of the changing education sector. \nShri Satish Chandra highlighted the challenges associated with online education in respect to the state of Andhra Pradesh. 3000 colleges and 17 universities with 12 lakhs students in Higher Education Sector have got affected because of the pandemic. However\, the future of education brings a blended environment with both online and offline teaching-learning options. He opined that LMS\, Online Platforms\, gadgets such as desktops\, laptops or tablets are going to be a part of the new normal of the education sector. The Government of Andhra Pradesh strives to help economically backward students by providing the gadgets at an affordable cost under various scholarship schemes.

SUMMARY:Reimagine\, Recreate\, Restore: World Environment Day Quiz
DESCRIPTION:Sustainable development that curbs pollution and thus prevents the extinction of species from the surface of the earth is the urgent need of the hour. The United Nations Assembly established World Environment Day in 1972 to fundamentally raise awareness among people about the importance of ecosystem preservation. Since then\, World Environment Day is observed on June 5 annually with eco-sensitive themes to remind individuals and organisations about their duties and responsibilities towards the gift of nature. \nThis year’s theme: ‘Reimagine.Recreate.Restore.’ marks the beginning of the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. The Department of Student Affairs\, SRM University-AP is organizing a Quiz Programme for the students on June 5\, 2021\, at 7:00 pm to ensure commitment to the earth’s reviving mission\, as a green and sustainable university. \n“Nature is healing” is a misleading message that has been circulated in the digital world during these Covid-19 pandemic days when human activities are shut down around the world. It is not just a year or a decade since humans have started exploiting\, looting\, and destroying the wildlife\, coral reefs\, deserts\, mountains and more. Let us be a generation that reimagines creative ways to restore our natural resources. \nAll are welcome!

SUMMARY:International Conclave on the Role of Technology for the Sustainable Agricultural Growth for Future Generations
DESCRIPTION:An International Conclave on the “Transition towards sustainability of Agriculture: Role of Technology in Agriculture Supply Chain” is being organised by the Department of Economics\, School of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences\, SRM University-AP\, Andhra Pradesh on June 3-4 from 9 am. Renowned economists and experts across the world will be joining the conclave to share their thoughts and perspectives on the much-needed topic of this time. Faculty and Scholars are invited to submit the abstracts of their research papers on or before May 25\, 2021. Prof Vijay Paul Sharma\, Chairman\, Commission for Agriculture Costs and Price (CACP) Ministry of Agriculture & Farmer Welfare\, Govt of India\, will grace the conclave with his presence as the Chief Guest. \nThe agriculture and food sectors are facing multiple challenges. With the global population projected to grow from 7.6 billion in 2018 (UN DESA\, 2019) to over 9.6 billion in 2050\, there will be a significant increase in the demand for food (UN DESA\, 2017). At the same time\, the availability of natural resources such as fresh water and productive arable land is becoming increasingly constrained. Production is not the only concern; although agricultural output is currently enough to feed the world\, 821 million people still suffer from hunger (FAO\, 2018). Processes such as the rapid rate of urbanisation also have important implications for food production patterns and consumption. The agri-food sector remains critical for livelihoods and employment. There are more than 570 million smallholder farms worldwide (Lowder et al.\, 2016)\, and agriculture and food productions account for 28% of the entire global workforce (ILOSTAT\, 2019). \nAchieving the UN Sustainable Development Goal of a ‘world with zero hunger’ by 2030 will require more productive\, efficient\, sustainable\, inclusive\, transparent and resilient food systems. This will require an urgent transformation of the current agri-food system. Digital innovations and technologies may be part of the solution. The so-called ‘Fourth Industrial Revolution’ (Industry 4.0) observes several sectors to be transformed rapidly by ‘disruptive’ digital technologies such as Blockchain\, Internet of Things\, Artificial Intelligence and Immersed Reality. In the agriculture and food sectors\, the spread of mobile technologies\, remote-sensing services and distributed computing are already improving smallholders’ access to information\, inputs\, market\, finance and training. Digital technologies are creating new opportunities to integrate smallholders into a digitally-driven agri-food system. In this two-day Internation Conclave\, reputed experts will shed some light by sharing their wisdom with others on the recent challenges and the scope associated with it. Needless to say\, food will always be an integral part of the basic need of humans. In these discussions\, the path towards ensuring enough food supply for future generations will be searched. \nThe Department of Economics\, under the School of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences at SRM University-AP\, is a vibrant unit for teaching fundamental courses (core & electives) in Economics along with allied courses for students across the disciplines. In addition to the Foundation Courses and optional Minors across the departments\, the department ensures that the education imparted is truly multidisciplinary with an excellent programme structure that can cater to the growing market demand for professional economists and policy researchers. At Present\, the department offers B.Sc. (Hons.) and PhD in Economics and will soon offer a postgraduate programme with specialisations in Econometrics\, Finance\, Trade and Development in coming years. \nCall for Papers:\nFaculty and Scholars are invited to submit the abstracts to be presented at the conclave “Transition towards sustainability of Agriculture: Role of Technology in Agriculture Supply Chain” on or before May 25\, 2021.

SUMMARY:"Commit to Quit":SRM University-AP celebrates World No Tobacco Day
DESCRIPTION:World No Tobacco Day is observed annually on May 31 by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and global partners to raise awareness on the dangers associated with tobacco usage. Following the theme of this year-“Commit to Quit”\, SRM University-AP has organised a seminar to spread awareness and urge university students\, teachers\, and other employees to take a digital pledge to be restrained from using tobacco. The welcome Adress will be given by Dr Lakshmi Rajyam\, Medical Officer\, SRM University-AP. Dr Lakshmi Kiran Talluri\, Medical Officer\, will explain the downsides of tobacco usage as the keynote speaker. He will further guide the viewers with the challenges and strategies associated with quitting tobacco. \nThe programme emphasises the health hazards associated with tobacco use and encourages individuals to adhere to government rules aimed at reducing smoking and other tobacco product use. According to WHO reports\, around 8 million people die each year because of tobacco use. In 1987\, the WHO declared May 31 as World No Tobacco Day to encourage people to abstain from tobacco use for at least 24 hours. The World Health Organization even prohibited advertisements promoting any tobacco product in 2008. Cigarette users\, according to research\, are more susceptible to Covid-19 infection due to the compromised lungs and respiratory organs caused by heavy cigarette usage. \nSRM University-AP commits to encouraging its associates to raise awareness and spread information about the hazards and realities of tobacco usage on World No Tobacco Day under the slogan “Commit to quit.” Dr Lakshmi Kiran Talluri holds the prestigious position of resident medical officer at SRM University-AP\, Andhra Pradesh.

SUMMARY:Dr Ramana Vinjamuri to expose the fascinating tale of "Synergy Based Human Machine Interfaces"
DESCRIPTION:In collaboration with IEEE-SRM Student Branch\, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering\, SRM University-AP\, Andhra Pradesh\, is organising a highly called for discussion on “Synergy Based Human Machine Interfaces”. The event has been scheduled for May 8\, 2021\, at 10:30 am. Dr Ramana Kumar Vinjamuri\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering and Director of Sensorimotor Control Laboratory (Vinjamuri Lab)\, University of Maryland Baltimore County\, Baltimore\, MD\, USA\, will honour us with his presence as the keynote speaker. \nHuman-machine interface (HMI) has not only become a popular technology but has become the hope of many individuals for restoring their lost limb function. Any HMI has two important intrinsic design components—(i) decode the human commands and (ii) controlling the machine to convert that command into action. Decades of research went into making the interface between the human and the machine seamless but was unable to effectively address the inherent challenges\, namely\, complexity\, adaptability and variability. \nTo overcome the above challenges\, it is critical to computationally understand and quantitatively characterise human sensorimotor control. Emerging areas in HMIs critically depend on the ability to build bioinspired models\, experimentally validate them and utilise them in adaptive and intuitive control. The human hand with high dimensionality encompasses the three inherent challenges and may serve as an ideal validation paradigm. How central nervous system (CNS) controls this high dimensional human hand effortlessly is still an unsolved mystery. \nTo address this high dimensional control problem\, many bioinspired motor control models have been proposed\, one of which is based on synergies. According to this model\, instead of controlling individual motor units\, CNS simplifies the control using coordinated control of groups of motor units called synergies. However\, there are several unanswered questions today— Where are synergies present in CNS? What is their role in motor control and motor learning? By combining the concepts of human motor control\, computational neuroscience\, machine learning and validation with noninvasive human experiments\, can we answer these fundamental questions? The goal of this research is to develop efficient\, seamless and near-natural human-machine interfaces based on biomimetically inspired models. \nDr Ramana Vinjamuri received his PhD in Electrical Engineering in 2008\, specialised in dimensionality reduction in control and coordination of human hand from the University of Pittsburgh. He worked as a postdoctoral research associate (2008-2012) in the field of Brain-Machine Interfaces (BMI) to control prosthesis in the School of Medicine\, the University of Pittsburgh\, where he received Mary E Switzer Merit Fellowship from NIDILRR in 2010. Prior to that\, he worked as a Research Assistant Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University (2012-2013) in the area of neuroprosthetics. He also served as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Stevens Institute of Technology (2013-2020). In 2018\, he received Harvey N Davis Distinguished Teaching Award for excellence in undergraduate and graduate teaching. He earned the NSF CAREER Award in 2019 and NSF IUCRC Center Planning grant in 2020. His other notable research awards are from USISTEF and New Jersey Health Foundation. He holds a secondary appointment as an Adjunct Assistant Professor at the Indian Institute of Technology\, Hyderabad\, India. He is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering at the University of Maryland Baltimore County.

SUMMARY:"National Symposium on High Energy Physics"-enthralling discussion on Particle Physics\, Dark Matter and gravitational waves
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Physics\, SRM University-AP\, Andhra Pradesh\, has organised a National Symposium on High Energy Physics on Saturday\, May 1\, 2021\, at 11 am. Leading Physicists of the nation are going to share their perspective on the progress and recent challenges in Particle Physics\, Dark Matter Physics and Gravitational-Wave Astronomy. Padma Shri awardee Prof Rohini Godbole\, theoretical particle physicist at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc)\, Bengaluru\, will present the inaugurating talk on “Status of Particle Physics: in light of Nobel Prizes of 2013 and 2015”. Prof Basudeb Dasgupta from the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR)\, Mumbai\, will join us for the next session on “The Mystery of Invisible Mass”. The last talk of the day will be given by Prof. Bala Iyer from the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences (ICTS)\, Bengaluru. He will shed light on “The Detection of Gravitational Waves and the Dawn of Multi-messenger Astronomy”. \nOur first speaker of the day\, Prof Rohini M Godbole\, is a theoretical particle physicist at the Indian Institute of Science\, Bangaluru. Over the past three decades\, she has worked extensively on particle physics phenomenology\, exploring different theoretical aspects of Standard Model and Beyond Standard Model physics at high energy collider experiments. She is an elected fellow of all the three Academies of Science of India and the Science Academy of the Developing World (TWAS). She has published over 200 research papers and received numerous recognitions from all over the world. Prof Godbole co-edited the book “Lilavati’s Daughters”\, a collection of biographical essays on women scientists of India\, which was published by the Indian Academy of Sciences. In 2019\, she was awarded Padma Shri\, the fourth highest civilian honour of the Government of India\, for her contribution to Science and Technology. \nIn 2013\, the Nobel prize in Physics was awarded for the theoretical postulate of the Higgs Boson\, after the experimental discovery of the same at the LHC in 2012. This was considered being the last missing piece in the periodic table of the Standard Model (SM). In 2015 the Nobel prize in physics was awarded for the experimental discovery of Neutrino oscillations\, which is one robust evidence for physics beyond the SM. In her speech\, Prof Godbole will comment on the status of particle physics in light of these two and the exciting results on the measurements of the magnetic moment of the muon that have been announced in the previous weeks. \nProf Basudeb Dasgupta is a theoretical physicist at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR)\, Mumbai. His research interests include the interfaces of particle physics\, astrophysics\, and cosmology with an emphasis on dark matter and neutrino physics. Prof Dasgupta is also the Leader of the Astroparticle Physics Partner Group of Max-Planck Institute for Physics. Prof Dasgupta is a regular speaker at notable international workshops and conferences and different Science Outreach programmes. \nWhen we look at the night sky\, we see a variety of astronomical objects\, such as planets\, stars\, gas clouds\, still waiting to form stars to swathe of the emptiness. For a long time\, it was believed to be all that the Universe is consists of. The following discoveries came as a huge surprise that all we see and know comprises only about 20% of the matters in the Universe. The remaining 80% is invisible and called “Dark Matter.” What is this dark matter? How do we know that is out there? What is it made of? How can we decipher the nature of this mysterious new ingredient of the cosmic soup? In this talk\, Prof Basudeb Dasgupta will address and answer some of these questions. \nProf Bala Iyer is currently the Simons Visiting Professor at ICTS-TIFR Bangalore and CO-PI of the LIGO-India Scientific Collaboration. The alumnus of Bombay University previously worked at the Raman Research Institute\, Bangalore\, on Astrophysical applications of General Relativity\, Perturbation methods and Black Holes. Since 1990\, he is working on calculations of Gravitational waves from inspiraling binaries of neutron stars and black holes. He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society and International Society on General Relativity and Gravitation. He has been the Chair of the IndIGO Consortium since its inception in 2009. Prof Iyer was a Member of the Core Team for the LIGO-India Mega-Project Proposal. Further\, he is the Chief Editor and Subject Editor of Gravitational Waves for the Online Journal `Living Reviews in Relativity’\, published recently by Springer. Prof Bala Iyer has been a Visiting scientist in France\, UK\, Germany\, USA. He has been involved in REAP (Research Education Advancement Programme) for B.Sc students at the Bangalore Planetarium for over two decades and Public outreach on General Relativity and Gravitational Waves. \nThe first detection of gravitational waves from a black hole binary in 2015 was a breakthrough\, taking a century to realise\, and made possible by the coming together of a remarkable experiment and an exquisite theory complemented by the best in sophisticated data analyses\, state of the art computing and the transition to “big science”. 2017 brought the discovery of gravitational waves from a neutron star binary. The intense associated electromagnetic follow up of this event was spectacular. It heralds the launch of a new multi-messenger astronomy with the potential to impact astrophysics\, cosmology and fundamental physics in the coming decades. Prof Bala Iyer will discuss the nature of gravitational wave and its impact on Physics. \nThe symposium aims to make students aware of the current status of some of the fascinating research topics of High Energy Physics. Students of basic sciences and engineering streams will be highly inspired and motivated after attending the symposium and listening to the talks. Join the captivating event on May 1\, 2021\, at 11 am.

SUMMARY:An intriguing two-day session on "Flourishing through stress" with Aayushi Sharma
DESCRIPTION:Amid Covid-19\, when we see high rates of mental duress and a substantial rise in the cases struggling with health concerns\, an initiative in the form of discussion is highly obliging. The Department of Student Affairs of the SRM University-AP came forward with an imperative step to hold a two-day webinar on “Flourishing through Stress” with Aayushi Sharma\, Student Counsellor\, SRM University-AP on April 24 and 25\, 2021\, from 4 pm to 5 pm. \nMental health and well-being go parallelly\, and both interrelate for a healthy livelihood. Everybody caught up in the web of stress\, anxiety\, and mental issues necessitate counselling to escape through it. With the advent of social media and pop culture narrative\, people are open to conversations related to mental health concerns. Youths are the future for a healthier society\, laden with a responsibility to understand the mechanism of a complex world. Therefore\, a general discussion on self-care and mental health awareness is an effective coping strategy for improving quality of life. \nThere is very little information disseminated on mental health which led to confusion among people. Individuals often confuse the term mental illness with mental health conversation as there is a profound absence of awareness. Meanwhile\, no one confuses a common cold or headache as these illnesses happen on a broad spectrum. \nMore actions are needed to spread awareness on the spectrum of mental health\, especially the common ones such as loneliness and depression\, so that an individual can realize these issues and seek medical help or therapy. \nParticipate in the zoom webinar on April 24 and 25\, 2021\, at 4 pm to get detailed information on mental health and related topics.
