Courses

Here is a sneak preview of the courses I am teaching or have taught in the past at BITS.

1.HSS F222: Introduction to Linguistics:

Difficulty level: Moderate.
Monica's father is from Portugal, and mother is from Germany. Monica was born and brought up in Hyderabad and goes to schools in Hyderabad. Which language do you think Monica would speak, namely Portuguese, German, Telugu, English or Hindi? People of Pandu tribe are called Pandav. People of Raghu tribe are called Raghav. What would you call the people of Yadu tribe? How did you figure out the answer? Someone asks Monica, "What's the time?". Monica say, "Time is the temporal continuum of space". Everyone laughs around her. Why? If these and similar questions excite you, and you are looking for erudite answers to these questions, then this course is for you!

2.HSS F228: Phonetics and Spoken English

Difficulty level: Easy-Moderate.
"Haeo di ya do mayt!" Didn't understand? What if I told you that the statement was made by an Australian person? Still not? What if I told you that he was saying, "How do you do mate". I bet you are able to read the statement in perfect Australian accent now! Does that excite you? Have you struggled to understand what the bloke reading the news on BBC is saying? Are you fascinated by the way Shashi Tharoor and Karan Thapar speak? Do you love the way African American rappers put emphasisssssssss on every word while rapping? Does an argument in commentary box of a world cup cricket match between an Australian, south African and Indian commentator excite you because of all the lovely ways they speak the same language, English? Do you love accents, and want to learn more about how people speak, specially the English language? Then this course is for you.

3.BITS F112: Technical Report Writing

Difficulty level: Easy-Moderate.

Report Writing is the fact of life. It is a necessary evil. But while you may not enjoy writing reports, it does not have to be your weakness as well. In this course we learn various aspects of writing reports, e.g. dividing a manuscript into sections, planning each section, writing in a formal writing style, reporting data, providing citations, etc. But we begin with learning the things you might take for granted, like how to write formal emails, how to critically read things, and how to take down notes.

4.BITS E661: Research Methodology (for PhD candidates)

Difficulty level: Easy-Moderate.

Conducting research is a multiple-task enterprise. It requires planning, running the experiments, observing the data, writing the report and publishing. In this course, we take a look at some of these aspects and learn some practical tips that will ease your process of conducting and reporting the research. It is a general course, it is suitable for researchers from all fields.

5.PHIL C221 / HSS F236: Symbolic Logic

Difficulty level: Difficult.

Language is versatile but ambiguous. If I tell you, "I saw an elephant with a telescope". What do you understand? Did I have the telescope or the elephant? What if instead of speaking in English language, I expressed it as saw[I, elephant{with(telescope)}] or saw[I{with(telescope)}, elephant]. Now does it become clearer? Mathematical notations provide the power to express things elegantly and without ambiguity. In this course, we learn the formalism of symbols as applied to doing logic. Naturally, on the way, we learn the basics of logic as well.

6.HSS F242: Introduction to Phonology

Difficulty level: Moderate-difficult.

Have you ever realized what the difference is between /p/ sound and /b/ sound? They are both produced with the same speech organs, i.e. lips. They are both produced in the same manner, i.e. block the air and then release it. So they are similar. You do not confuse the word 'pack' with the word 'back'. So these sounds may be similar but they not the same. So where is the difference? Every wondered why Japanese words always have a consonant followed by vowel followed by a consonant, then a vowel, and so on (Think of Yamaha, Miyazaki, Nipono, Sushi, Takahashi, Watanabe, Nakamura, Suzuki)? You learn in this course, the idiosyncracies of language, and how what seems like idiosyncracies on the surface, are really rule bound in the deep. Unlike Phonetics and Linguistics, this is a technical course.

Jan - May, 2025:

Highlight: I shall teach a new elective course CS F436 Cyber Physical Systems and Security (3 1 0 4) in the upcoming semester (Jan - May, 2025). I shall consider a higher weightage for assignment or project in this course for a better outcome this course. Some variations of this course have been recently introduced in several reputed universities within India and abroad, e.g., IIT Kharagpur, IIT Kanpur, University of Notinghum, University of Southumpton, CMU, UCI, DIT, and so on. This course can be very beneficial to those who wish to venture into CPS or IIoT arena. I invite our BITS Hyderabad students to register for this new elective course in the upcoming next semester and take advantage of such a new course.

Teaching activity

I have been teaching two specialized courses which were designed by me and introduced from second semester of 2020-21.

These courses are: PHY F346 : Laser Science and Technology. This course is open to all Physics and Engineering students.

The second course is PHY F433 : Topics in Nonlinear Optics. This is an elective for Physics students only who have earlier taken the Optics course. This course started a year after the earlier course.

Apart from these two courses, I have been involved in teaching the three physics student labs viz. 1) Electromagnetics and Optics Laboratory, 2) Modern Physics Laboratory and 3) Advanced Physics Laboratory. I have also modified and updated the laboratory manuals of all experiments in the First year Physics Lab, EMO lab, Modern Physics Lab and Advanced Physics Lab, and a few experiments have been replaced by new experiments.

Courses

I have taught a variety of courses on campus since October 2005. They are listed below:

PHY F110 Physics Laboratory:

This introductory physics laboratory introduces the art of experimentation in Physics through various experiments in Mechanics, Oscillations and Waves.

PHY F111: Mechanics, Oscillations and Waves

All students of BITS Pilani study this course irrespective of their program of study. This course is an elementary introduction to the theory and applications in the subject area of Mechanics, Oscillations and Waves.

PHY F211: Classical Mechanics

This course introduces the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics of a system with finite degrees of freedom. Three classes of applications that are included in the course of study are:

Two-body central force problem
Rigid body kinematics and dynamics
Theory of small oscillations

PHY F212: Electromagnetic Theory I

This course introduces the student to the unified theory of Electricity, Magnetism and Light. The course is roughly divided into three parts, each of which addresses the following questions:

Part I: What is the nature of the electric field produced by a static charge distribution? How do you quantitatively describe it? How does the static electric field influence any material medium? How do you characterize the material response to this static electric field?
Part II: What is the nature of the magnetic field produced by a steady and time-independent current? How do you quantitatively describe it? How do we characterize the response of a material to such a static magnetic field?
Part III: What is the experimental basis for unifying the theory of electricity, magnetism and light? How does this lead to Maxwell's equations? How do we understand the existence of light as a standalone system in itself? How do we characterize its properties?

PHY F241: Electromagnetic Theory II

The theory of interacting charged particles and electromagnetic fields is analyzed in detail.

Part I: What is a boundary value problem? Why should we study boundary value problems? How do you go about solving them?
Part II: Why do we introduce the concept of scalar and vector potential? What is the form of Maxwell's equations in terms of scalar and vector potential? How can the non-uniqueness of potentials be leveraged to simply the construction of solutions to Maxwell's equations?
Part III: What are the key features of unbounded propagation of electromagnetic waves in vacuum, lossless and lossy linear dielectrics and conductors? How do properties of propagating electromagnetic waves change as they traverse media with distinct dielectric, magnetic and conducting properties? What are the key features of bounded propagation of electromagnetic waves through transmission lines and waveguides?
Part IV: What are the characteristics of electromagnetic radiation produced by a given time-varying conserved charge and current distribution? How does the approximate description of the charge and current density through electric and magnetic multipoles lead to a systematic understanding of the produced electric and magnetic field at near, intermediate and far distances from the source?
Part V: What is the special theory of relativity? How do we see that the free electromagnetic field is a relativistic system?

Mathematical Methods of Physics

I have taught this course twice before under the pre-2012 curriculum framework. The first part discussed a variety of partial differential equations while the second part was devoted to basic elements of group theory and its representations.

PHY F244: Modern Physics Laboratory

A laboratory course consisting of exciting experiments from Modern Physics.

PHY F342: Atomic & Molecular Physics

Metrology & Phenomenology: How do we qualitatively set up the order of magnitude of various physical quantities associated with the world of atoms, molecules and light? Experiments provide a wealth of spectral data (frequencies emitted and absorbed) on atoms and molecules. How do we construct models based on known theoretical frameworks to explain existing experimental data and arrive at new predictions? (This is the practice of phenomenology in Physics)
Preliminaries: What are the key elements in constructing quantum models of atomic and molecular systems? What approximation methods are available at our disposal?
Hydrogenic Systems: The simplest atomic system is the hydrogen atom. Systems similar to hydrogen are called hydrogenic systems. Experimentalists have provided an extremely detailed record of the spectrum of this light atom. How do we set up a quantum model to explain all aspects of its spectrum? How do we explain the influence of external fields on the spectral lines of hydrogenic systems?
Many-electron atoms: A first-principles prediction of atomic structure involves computing the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of an N-electron atom problem. This is a challenging problem which has no exact solution. How do we systematically develop approximate solutions to this problem?
Atomic spectroscopy: Atoms emit, absorb and scatter light. The frequencies (and wavelengths) of and the extent to which light is emitted, absorbed and scattered by atoms are measured by experimentalists using various methods. This is called spectroscopy. How do we develop a theoretical model of atom-light interaction which can be used to predict the spectroscopic results?
Molecular Structure: Molecules are formed by the bonding of atoms. How do we set up a quantum-mechanical theory of chemical bonding and use it to predict the existence of molecules and their properties?
Molecular Spectroscopy: How do we understand the emergence of rotational, vibrational and electronic spectra of molecules?

Statistical Physics and Applications (PHY F516) A course in equilibrium statistical mechanics for PhD students. (Text books: Statistical Physics of Particles by M Kardar)

Semester II, 2023-24

Mechanics Oscillations and Waves (PHY F111) The bread and butter course of our department, where we engage the freshers with intermediate mechanics and related topics of waves and oscillations. After a quick revision of fundamental laws and necessary mathematical introduction, advanced topics such as rigid body motion, non-inertial frames, coupled oscillators and Fourier analysis of waves are discussed. (Text book: An Introduction Mechanics by Kleppner and Kolenkow, Introduction to Waves by A P French.)

Theoretical Neuroscience (BITS F317) A first course in Theoretical Neuroscience that introduces neuronal behavior modelling using non-linear differential equations as well the concepts of encoding and decoding of neural data. (Text books: Introduction to neuronal dynamics by Gerstner et al, Introduction to Theoretical Neuroscience by Dayan and Abbott)

Some of the course taught over the semesters

Physics Lab - 1 (PHY F110)
Mechanics lab that runs in tandem with the course on Mechanics, Oscillations and Waves for undergraduate students. It has an assorted set of 10 experiments exploring various concepts in mechanics. Some of the experiments included are: Gyroscope, Coupled Pendulum, Maxwell's wheel etc.

Classical Mechanics (PHY F211)
Second course on mechanics for the physics masters students. Topics covered includes: Planetary motion, rigid body motion, small oscillations, Lagragian and Hamiltonian formalism, Hamilton Jacobi theory. Text books: Classical Mechanics by H. Goldstien, Introduction to classical mechanics by Landau & Lifshitz )

General Theory of Relativity & Cosmology (PHY F415)

Course description

This course aims to introduce the basic concepts of General Theory of Relativity and it's application in Cosmology i.e. to know the behavior of the universe at large scale. After reviewing basic concepts of special relativity (in 4 vector formalism), the notion of tensor, covariant derivative, geodesics, curvature tensor, Ricci tensor, Ricci scalar, Einstein tensor and hence the Einstein equations will be derived. The Schwarzschild black hole solution of the Einstein equation will be discussed, which will be followed by Physics near the massive objects. The FRW cosmology will be discussed at a length and finally inflationary cosmology will be introduced in brief.

Courses:

Most of these courses have been conducted multiple times over the past nine years. The primary objective is to engage learners and facilitate them to find their motivation in each course in a practical, real world based and personalized manner. The courses should add some significant meaning to the learners in terms of skills and comprehension of the workings of the world (both experimental and cerebral are of equal importance, learn by doing is the motto). The learners are encouraged to integrate science and engineering, academic and real world and experimental and simulation techniques.

Verilog HDL with Quartus and Modelsim

In this playlist we go through the fundamentals of Verilog HDL and modelling of basic digital circuit elements using Verilog. The fundamental takeaway is although Verilog syntax looks like other programming languages (such as C) and it is a Turing complete language, it is more of a hardware description language. HDLs were initially introduced more as a way for efficient documentation and simulation and was later adopted for synthesis also. As a hardware designer, the structure and operation of the circuit should be in your mind and you are describing it in Verilog. It is then up to the EDA tools to interpret your description and implement using a target technology (such as FPGA). The main challenge here is to properly and efficiently describe the hardware. For demonstration, we use Modelsim simulator and Intel Quartus but the concept and code can be used with any HDL EDA tools.

Reconfigurable Embedded Systems with Xilinx Zynq APSoC

This playlist provides sample applications implemented on Xilinx Zynq APSoC platform through Xilinx Vivado design suite. Most of the examples follow hardware-software codesign approach and is the base for my hardware-software co-design course. Viewers are expected to be conversant with Verilog HDL and C programming language to follow the contents.

LPC2378 Embedded C Programming with Keil

This playlist contains sample embedded programming for LPC2378 microcontroller. These videos are recorded as part of the Embedded Systems Design Course offered at BITS Pilani, Goa (EEE G512).

Internet of Things (IoT) with Amazon AWS

This playlist introduces Amazon AWS IoT core platform. Since the videos were created a few years back, some of the steps might have changed in the latest AWS platform.

Research Interest

The ultimate goal of our research is to synthesize novel multi-functional materials and device novel fabrication techniques with a focus to extract superior material performance for a given application. Developing such advanced materials will often require the use of nanomaterials that offer exciting properties. Our research encompasses several components (i.e., synthesis, assembly, characterization, test method development, materials formulation/processing, etc.) designed to give students a very well rounded engineering background. Broadly speaking, the work carried out in colloids and nanocomposites research group is interdisciplinary and at the interface of materials and chemical engineering. The following research projects are currently being undertaken in the CNC research group

Advanced Materials for EMI Shielding and Microwave Absorption: The Electromagnetic Interference can be described as a novel pollutant, which causes malfunctioning in the electronic devices due to wanted EM waves interacting with the device. One way to mitigate such an effect is by shielding the device from all unwanted waves. However, to be good shield, a material needs to have combinations of desirable properties such as high relative permittivity, permeability and conductivity. However, none of the conventional materials have a combination of all these properties, which marks the motivation of advanced materials (hybrid composites) in these applications. Our efforts in this direction are targeted to fundamentally understand the relative interplay between the material properties and its influence on microwave attenuation. The outcome from this research will be useful for applications such as radar absorbing materials and stealth technology.
Design and development of inline sensor for water contamination detection: Water contamination is a growing threat to human survival. Especially, contamination of drinking water with toxic metals poses many risks. There are several filtration solutions to remove toxic metals from water, however, their detection, in real time is still not fully developed . The efforts in this research are focused on developing a "solid state" sensor capable of continuously detecting heavy metals presence in drinking water.
Test Method Development for Releasable Formaldehyde from Artificial Leather Samples: Synthetic or artificial leather is a material used in applications where leather was traditionally used, driven by its low cost and ease of manufacturing. Artificial leather looks and feels much like natural leather, but is made on a fabric base rather than from animal skin. One of the major drawbacks of synthetic leather is the “plastic” type odor that emanates from newly made products. For example, the “new car smell” is often caused by volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as formaldehyde, released from the synthetic leather upholstery. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) of the World Health Organization (WHO) has classified formaldehyde as a Group 1 carcinogen. For these reasons, tougher restrictions are being imposed on the free formaldehyde content that can come from synthetic leather fabrics by various countries. The motivation of this research is to develop a robust measurement strategy for determination of free formaldehyde in the artificial leather samples
Development of microporous PVC films for synthetic leather application: Synthetic leather is used in a variety of applications such as, car seats, furniture, shoes, bags etc. The synthetic leather mimics the natural leather in all aesthetic aspects but fails to offer comfort levels similar to its natural counterpart. The research effort in this project is aimed at imparting air and water vapor transmissibility to synthetic leather.

We strongly encourage bright and "motivated" B.E/M.E/Ph.D. (Part time and Full Time) students to join the group for carrying out their projects. Please contact Dr. Krishna Etika for more details.

Teaching Profile

BIO G 525 - Environmental Biotechnology & Waste Management

Course Description : Application of biotechnology to the management of environmental problems. Biotechnology for enhanced plant and animal production through biological insecticides, herbicides resistance, mineral cycling, conservation of genetic resources and biological nitrogen fixation. Use of biotechnological processes for pollution control, bioremediation of toxicants and treatment of domestic and industrial wastes. Ethical issues related with the release of genetically modified organism.

BIOF 216 - Water, Sanitation and Solid Waste Management

Course Description: Sanitation, Water and Solid Waste for Development course will consist of four modules Municipal Solid Waste Management in Developing Countries This module provides an overview of the municipal solid waste management situation in developing countries. Planning and Design of Sanitation Systems and Technologies This module deals with integrated sanitation planning, dealing with citywide planning as well as with planning for specific contexts such as informal settlements. Introduction to Household Water Treatment and Safe Storage In this module students will learn about the most important water treatment methods at household level, successful implementation strategies and about assessing the impact of HWTS.Introduction to Faecal sludge management This module deals with what faecal sludge is and introduces students to the engineering fundamentals and required information for the design and selection of technologies.

BIO F217 - Laboratory for Water, Sanitation and Solid Waste Management

Course Description: The basic science module is a 1-week on-site training which prepares the student for the capstone project. Student will learn or get a refresher training on how research works including practical skills on how to conduct capstone project. Apart from lab experiments which students will be conducting, they are also expected to do a capstone project. Capstone project follows a progression of modules: a) define topic; b) compile required reading, c) select site, d) write capstone proposal (2 pages), e) design field research and survey development, f) carry out field research, g) analyze data, h) write-up, i) submit project report (max. 15 pages).

SAN G511 – Sanitation Technology

Course Description: Inadequate sanitation is responsible for some 840,000 deaths, every year worldwide. For India alone, a recent study estimated that the total economic impact of inadequate sanitation amounts to Rs. 2.44 trillion (US$53.8 billion) a year —this was the equivalent of 6.4 percent of India’s GDP in 2006. This means per person across India an annual impact of Rs. 2,180 (US$48). Challenges arise from the wide range of options available and the differing environments and conditions to which each is suited. Experience shows that it is important to allow local involvement in the choice of solutions, but with a full grasp of the requirements of each option. In this course the full range of technological options will be discussed in detail.

SAN G515 – Emergency Sanitation and Leadership

Course Description: The Sanitation Emergency module has been developed in cooperation with major humanitarian organizations with the aim to enable participants to understand sanitation in a humanitarian context. It focuses on interdisciplinary humanitarian action including humanitarian principles and on how to work within the framework and coordination of humanitarian assistance. The stages of humanitarian aid, stakeholders in the international relief system, and their respective mandates will be discussed in this module, as well as the appropriate sanitation options. At the end of this module students will be able to plan, implement and monitor a sanitation response to an emergency situation. The Leadership module helps prepare professionals by teaching them how to productively influence their sector, workplace, and communities through an increased awareness of their personal leadership capabilities and the development of inter-personal communication skills. Through a series of practical and reflective group and individual exercises, as well as dedicated one-on-one coaching sessions, participants will gain an intimate understanding of the leaders they can be and develop their way forward to becoming future sanitation leaders.

Teaching (2024-25)

1. Combinatorial Mathematics (MATH F 421) with Prof. T. Singh:

Combinatorics is a fascinating but very broad subject. This makes it hard to classify. The blueprint of the course MATH F421 is the following: It starts with basic definitions and motivations by picking problems of perfect cover, Latin squares and magic squares/cube (SAIM algorithm). Then it will be covering advanced theory of permutations and combinations, counting principles, theory of partitions, special counting sequences, system of distinct representatives, combinatorial design and enumerations of graphs. For MATH F421, the Text Book: Richard A. Brualdi, Introductory Combinatorics, Pearson Education 5th Edition 2020.

TEACHER---I am a passionate teacher always interested in working with/ or training fresh minds with logical thinking. Teaching, gives me opportunities to engage young minds to be a good team member as well as a competent professionals. I am always interested in linking my class room teaching with concepts of other courses and practical aspects of the subject. My aim is always to build, in my students, a strong foundation of fundamental concepts through continuous emphasis on them with examples solved , in real time, on black board/ slides/ tablet (in online mode) using animations. Fundamentals. I strongly feel that this strong foundation prepares the students for accepting the real life challenges. It gives me immense pleasure if students perform well in their higher studies/ and profession. The energetic freshness of my students drives me immensely to improve my teaching abilities continuously.

Graph Mining has gained tremendous popularity in last few years. Graphs are everywhere: be it social networks, molecules, citation networks and many more. Data of any shape where different points hold some kinds of relationships can form graphs. This course motivates to study the underlying graph structures and its features by allowing students to apply a class of machine learning techniques and data mining tools to reveal insights on a variety of real graphs.

Research Interest

Broad research Interest

Plant-Microbe Interactions, Biodegradation, Microbial Ecology, & host-pathogen interaction.

Plant Microbe Interaction

Understanding the role of microorganisms in sustainable agriculture, aim of my research group is to study various aspects of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria especially endophytic bacteria. This includes molecular diversity, temporal dynamics of endophytic bacteria in field grown crop plants, characterization of different plant growth promoting and biocontrol properties (nitrogen fixation, phosphate solubilization, indole-3-acetic acid production, induced systemic tolerance and induced systemic resistance and antagonistic activities) and mechanism for endophytic colonization. One of the major questions we are trying to answer is: how do host plants modulate their immune response in beneficial (endophytic) and harmful (pathogenic) bacterial interactions. Our long term goal is to understand molecular mechanism involved in plant-endophytic bacteria interaction employing proteomic and transcriptomic approaches.

Another work addresses amelioration of abiotic stressors, major factors affecting plant growth, using PGPB. These PGPB can promote plant growth in saline soils by reducing level of stress-ethylene, helping in maintaining osmotic balance and Na+/K+ ratio, other mechanisms. We are studying the effect of PGPB on host physiology using proteomic approaches. https://researchmatters.in/news/how-does-bacteria-help-plants-thrive-salty-conditions.

Environmental Microbiology

Owing to their high chemical and thermal stability, commercial mixtures of PCBs were widely used in various industrial applications such as lubricants, plasticizers, dielectric fluids, hydraulic fluids in compressors and flame retardants. Although PCBs are no longer in use, but because of their extreme toxicity and persistence, they are still found as contaminants in the natural environments due to their past usage and continued to pose potential threats to human health. These compounds tend to resist biodegradation and persist in environment by attaching strongly to soil sediments and matrices, bioaccumulate in organisms especially at higher trophic level and finally enter food chains. We are making an attempt to screen and characterize PCB-degrading bacteria, understand the mechanistic pathway of PCB degradation, and to formulate the bacterial inocula to eliminate PCB from polluted soil.

Teaching: Experiential Learning

Experiential Learning Session in my Tutorial/Assignment Class of ME/MF F241: Machine Design and Drawing, a glimpse below:

Experiential learning is extremely essential. Specifically, in this course the students are taken through a weekly experiential learning routine in the tutorial/assignment class.

The experiential learning assignment involves a problem on machine component design fit for maximum 50 min (sometimes I found 50 min to be insufficient!). The assignment sheet requires each student enter his name and ID at the beginning of the session hence exchange is prohibited.
Prescribed textbook containing data tables, one’s own class notes, PPT slide printouts (no laptops!), calculator and any other printed material are permitted.
No more than 2 students are allowed to sit on each desk. Those two can discuss between themselves but may not discuss with anyone across. They can seek the help of the tutorial instructors any time.

Courses Taught and Teaching Philosophy

People: Sashideep Gutti and Kannan Ramaswamy along with other interested faculty in the Physics department

Aim: The primary vision of this group is to make undergraduate level Physics teaching exciting, engaging, and rewarding for students. This is a challenge as a University like BITS has students with varied interests and ambitions. In particular, one one hand there are students who are primarily looking for applications of Physics that could be turned into an idea for a startup, on the other hand there students who are purists. They want in depth presentation of ideas in Physics. It is therefore a big challenge for the instructors to capture the attention of students of a class of 500 students for an entire semester. Keeping this in mind, our aim is to create situations in the classroom that are rewarding for both categories of students. Furthermore, we have developed several classroom demonstrations to explain tough ideas like precession and Coriolis force. Our motto is to create activities that will let students learn!

Teaching methodology: Several teaching techniques need to be blended appropriately for creating an ambiance conducive to learning. It depends a lot on how students respond to the instruction in the first few days of the class. It appears that activity based learning is the way to go. In activity based learning there is minimal lecturing from the instructor. Instead the instructor plans activities that will make the students think and learn about concepts and ideas.

One such activity based teaching method is called Research Based Pedagogical Tool or RBPT in short. COESME, IISER, Pune has conducted several RBPT workshops across several parts of the country for the College teachers at various levels. Kannan Ramaswamy has participated in three RBPT workshops starting from the beginners to the advanced levels.

In the RBPT method, the instructor takes up a concept to be taught in the class and converts it in the form of research questions and activities that students will undertake as a part of the course. In particular, the research problem is chosen in such a manner that students are excited and motivated to carry out the various activities planned by the instructor. Importantly, RBPT method emphasizes student autonomy - students have to come up with the ideas themselves, so that they get a real feel of the research and the problem.

Please find below a link that helps to understand RBPT based activity to teach a particular concept. Instructors who want to know more about RBPT based teaching methodology could contact COESME, IISER, Pune (http://www.iiserpune.ac.in/outreach/coesme).

Classroom Demonstrations:

Gyroscope – to teach torque, angular momentum and precession (https://youtu.be/k5WTACO1pvI)
Coriolis bench – to demonstrate Coriolis force
Tornado in a bucket – this demo was used to show that a mass rotating on a table cannot be pulled to the center, by a string attached to the mass, with a finite force. The formation of the "eye of a storm" was explained based on this demonstration. Gyroscope – to teach torque, angular momentum and precession (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xrHAoNs4rE)
Faraday cage – To show that electric field inside a metal box is zero
Sliding magnets on a copper plate and magnets dropped through a hollow copper pipe: to show a manifestation of Lenz's law and Eddy currents
Eddy current pendulum – to demonstrate the effect of eddy currents in a spectacular manner

Present Teaching Engagements

Since last few years I am enjoying teaching these courses using various teaching pedagogy at undergraduate/postgraduate level.

Data Structures and Algorithms
Theory of Computation
Computer Networks
Foundations of Data Science
Computer Programming
Internetworking Techonologies

Unlike traditional classroom teaching pedagogy, recently this subject was offered using MOOC, which involves flipped classroom teaching pedagogy. It is a form of blended learning in which students learn new content, online, by watching video lectures. And what used to be homework (assigned problems) is now done in class with instructor offering more personalized guidance and interaction with students, instead of lecturing.

The subject was offered using COURSERA platform and then Edx platform. We used the tools and technology of coursera (later EdX) for offering Computer Programming course via flipped classroom teaching pedagogy.

Research Interest

My research interest includes the development of the numerical methods for the singularly perturbed boundary value problems arising in many applications of science and engineering. Singularly perturbed boundary value problems are those in which the highest order derivative is multiplied by a small parameter ε, known as the perturbation parameter. As ε → 0, the order of the differential equation reduces by at least one and so the solution to the reduced problem fails to satisfy all the boundary conditions. Thus as ε → 0, the solution to these problems has multiple behaviors in the sense that there are the regions where solution changes very rapidly (these regions are called layer regions) otherwise the solution varies slowly (these regions are called outer regions). The classical/standard numerical methods fail to approximate the solution to these problems, so we need to develop non-classical/nonstandard methods for the solution of these problems.

In particular, my research includes the development of the numerical methods for Initial/Boundary Value Problems for Ordinary Differential Equations, Partial Differential Equations, Delay/Advanced Differential Equations, Singularly Perturbed ODEs/PDEs, Fractional Order ODEs/PDEs etc.

Research

About Research: Our research interest focuses on design and synthesis of natural and synthetic bioactive nitrogen heterocycles as potent and selective anticancer agents. Recent research efforts aiming towards the use of organoiodines enabled us to discover several efficient protocols leading to easy access of drug-like bioactive heterocycles and natural products. Taking cue from indole-based natural products and synthetic drugs, identified various indolylazoles endowed with anticancer activities ranging from micro to nanomolar IC50 values. Efforts to develop potential photosensitizers resulted in the identification porphyrin macrocycle and boron dipyrromethenes with interesting absorption and emission properties. More recently efforts towards conjugate chemistry provided water soluble cationic porphyrins with remarkable (IC50 in nanomolar range) photocytotoxicity.

Research Interest

Understanding Tumor Drug Tolerance and Resistance

Our research team is involved in understanding the diverse molecular mechanisms or adaptations of tumor cells contributing to drug tolerance and resistance. In this regard, the following aspects are investigated:

Characterizing signaling and epigenetic adaptations of tumor cells upon drug stress: A toxic drug pressure often results in survival of a very small population of transitorily non-dividing tumor cells that eventually attain proliferative potential to re-populate the tumor. Our research is devoted towards understanding the signalling and epigenetic signatures of these 'tolerant cells' that serve as a pool of resilient cells re-establishing tumor population. We also compare the molecular responses after exposure to a toxic or a sub-toxic chemotherapeutic pressure. In this context, we have taken a next generation sequencing based approach followed up by extensive in silico analysis, and wet lab validations towards identification of druggable targets. Herein, we have observed dynamic alteration in developmentally relevant signaling pathways and modification of histone marks upon drug stress. Their functional implications are investigated. Overall, the understanding of the adaptive strategies of tumor cells upon drug pressure is directed towards identification of probable therapeutic targets preventing drug tolerance, resistance and hence associated recurrence of cancer.
Understanding the role of autophagy during drug stress: The cellular homeostatic process, autophagy has often been implicated in hindering drug sensitivity. However, the precise mechanism- of regulation of autophagy and the latter itself controlling cellular survival under drug pressure is poorly understood. Herein, we monitor autophagy after differential drug pressure in tumor cells. Thereafter, coupled with in silico analysis we identify signaling molecules/proteins regulating or having a crosstalk with autophagy. We further explore how modulating the identified molecules/autophagy can enhance chemotherapeutic sensitivity. In this context, we are further interested to explore the role of selective autophagy-mitophagy upon drug stress.
Exploring the role of master transcription regulator- YAP and LIM protein-Ajuba in drug resistance: Alteration in expression of developmentally active signaling pathways is a hallmark of cancer and associated drug resistance. In this regard, the dys-regulation of Hippo signaling pathway is often associated with cancer. Currently we are exploring the role of Hippo signaling pathway components, like YAP under drug stress and its crosstalk with cellular adaptive strategies. The differential localization of YAP and target genes under its control upon drug pressure is investigated.
Analyzing role of high glucose in tumor drug resistance: Hyperglycemic conditions are often positively correlated with progression of cancer, say pancreatic cancer. Especially, hyperglycemia is known to be associated with drug resistance as well. However, the precise mechanism of how hyperglycemia has an impact on drug resistance is poorly characterized. In this project, we explore alteration in expression of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) with high glucose and explore its role in drug resistance. From in silico analysis and wet lab validation we have shortlisted a set of lncRNAs that are dys-regulated under hyperglycemic conditions in pancreatic cancer cells. Through genetic manipulation, their role in resistance is thereafter investigated. Moving ahead, we explore whether these lncRNAs regulate chromatin dynamics under high glucose conditions thus controlling selective transcription of genes.
Role of GOF p53 in drug resistance: p53 is one of the most important tumor suppressors; however, in over half of human cancers, p53 is inactivated due to mutations. Mutant p53 possess distinctive activities of their own, often not present in the wild-type p53 protein. This endows the mutant proteins with activities that contribute to tumor progression and chemo-resistance. However, the mechanism by which these mutant cancer cells can be sensitized has not been extensively studied. In this project, we explore the potential of regulation of protein homeostasis as a therapeutic strategy to attenuate GOF-p53 mediated effect on drug resistance and survival.
Platelet autophagy and thrombosis: This project explores the role of autophagy and selective autophagy like, mitophagy in low oxygen induced platelet activation and thrombosis. The objective of this project is directed towards reducing and designing an appropriate therapy to prevent hypoxia induced thrombosis in people moving to high altitudes, especially, the soldiers. In parallel we are also investigating platelet and circulating tumor cell (CTC) interaction and its crosstalk with endothelial cells.

Experimental and theoretical methods:

Spectroscopy of cold molecules using Matrix Isolation:
In our lab we are applying Matrix Isolation Infrared Spectroscopy to study the nature of weak intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions.The facility consists of a Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer, a closed cycle 10K Cryostat.

The components are premixed in the mixing chamber and are then deposited on the spectroscopic window of the cold head of the cryostat where rapid cooling of the mixed gases takes place and forms the matrix. Infrared spectroscopy is performed on the deposited matrix to understand the nature of the interactions.
Simple organic syntheses - involving one or two steps.
Characterization using NMR, IR etc.
Spectroscopic investigations: UV-VIS, Steady state and time-resolved fluorescence.
Theoretical calculations: DFT, MP2, TD-DFT, CC2 etc.

The technique of Matrix Isolation allows us to study reactive intermediates, radicals, strained rings, etc. by trapping and isolating the reactive molecules in a cavity surrounded by one or more layers of inert material (Ar, N2 etc.) thereby inhibiting the diffusion of the substrate. Various spectroscopic techniques, such as, UV- VIS and IR can be used to study the isolated materials.

Objective of the Course: Social and Political ecology examines the politics of the environment and the social responses to the politics. The course would provide students awareness of contemporary debates on the issue of environment through case studies, movements and policies. This would enable students to have a broader understanding of issues related to policies and governance of natural resources.

GS F212: Environment, Development and Climate Change

Scope and Objective of the Course: This course focuses on the concepts of environment, development, and climate change in the contemporary world. This course focuses on the nature and causes of environmental problems in developing countries. Attention is given to both the causes and solutions of environmental problems and the role of state and non-state actors interacting at local, national and global scales. The objective of the course is to make the students aware of the debates and issues relating to environment, development and climate change. The goal of this course is for the learners to appreciate the people-environment relations and to understand the anthropocentric dynamics of development and climate change.

GS F333: Public Administration

Scopes and Objective of the Course: Public administration is a government’s functional arm that enables it to discharge growing responsibilities within an organized framework of well-established procedures. The quality of public administration determines the efficiency with which a government is able to reach out to fulfill the needs of its people and carry forward its objectives into practice. Think about how public administration plays an important role in your life as an Indian citizen? Public administration represents a great creative force, which if used in the right way at the right time, can transform and enhance the social, cultural and economic life of a nation……..

HSS F362: Local Governance and Participation

Scope and Objective of the Course: Strengthening local governments is one of the most important governance challenges in India today. A strong and empowered local government can bring together inclusive growth with inclusive governance. The course will introduce students to key concepts and ideas of decentralization with a focus on the constitutional framework for the same in the Indian context. This will include understanding the 73rd and 74th Constitutional amendments; the Panchayat Extension to Scheduled Areas (PESA); the idea and impact of reservations for women, scheduled castes, scheduled tribes and other marginalized communities. State wise and sectoral case studies will be used to further engage and explain the idea of local governance and participation.

GS F211: Modern Political Concepts

Scope and Objective of the Course: Students will gain a working understanding of the concepts of State, Rights, Democracy, Modern political ideologies, Contemporary political issues. The main purpose of this course is to acquaint students with the language of politics. Here, language is understood as the vocabulary and rhetoric of politics. As languages change over time, it is pertinent to understand the historical context(s) from within which the language(s) of politics emerged as well as those in which these continue to evolve.

HSS F249: Politics in India

Scope and Objective of the Course: India is a diverse country and has sustained a thriving democracy for decades. In its functioning, the Indian democracy deals with various complex issues juxtaposed against each other. The country is defined by great cultural diversity on the one hand and, on the other, the presence of deep social and economic inequality. Some state institutions that deal with these complexities have flourished and strengthened our democracy, while others have not. There is a constant negotiation of political space, ideologies, and identities by the state, political parties, and civil society. A constant challenge faced by the Indian democracy is its capacity to redistribute wealth and alleviate poverty. This Politics in India course will address these issues and help students understand the complexity that defines Indian politics.

*My Teaching Inspiration:

Where the mind is without fear

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high

Where knowledge is free

Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;

Where words come out from the depths of truth;

Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;

Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;

Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever widening thought and action into that heaven of freedom,

my father, let my country awake. - Rabindranath Tagore

First Semester, BITS F464 (Machine Learning):

Scope and Objectives of the course: This course is an undergraduate course on Machine Learning. ML is the sub-field of Artificial Intelligence. It helps engineers build automated systems that learn from experiences. It helps machines make data-driven decisions. For example, Google Maps for navigation uses the route network, real-time traffic characteristics, time of travel etc. to predict an appropriate path for you using ML algorithms. ML is a muti-disciplinary field, with roots in Computer Science, and Mathematics. ML methods are best described using linear and matrix algebra and their behaviour are best understood using the tools of probability and statistics. By integrating mathematical principles, you will learn to effectively address machine learning challenges, developing a deep understanding similar to that of professional data scientists. According to the latest estimates, 328 million terabytes of data are created daily. With this increasing amounts of data, the need for automated methods for data analysis continues to grow. The goal of this course is to develop methods that can automatically detect patterns in data, and then use the uncovered patterns to predict the future outcomes of interest. This course will cover many ML and Gen AI models and algorithms, including Linear regression, Multi-layer neural networks, Support vector machines, Bayesian networks, Gaussian mixture models, Clustering algorithms, Generative adversarial networks (GANs), RNNs, and Reinforcement learning techniques. Hands-on experience will be emphasized, allowing you to select optimal models and master the essential implementation details critical to their success. Practical sessions (Coding assignments) will involve working with real-world data, enhancing your proficiency in debugging and refining models through various ML techniques. The course objectives are the following:

To understand various ML techniques like Model selection, Under-fitting, Over-fitting, Cross-validation, Regularization etc.
To understand and build appropriate supervised learning algorithms for classification problems like Decision Trees, Naïve Bayes, Support vector machines (SVMs), Artificial Neural Networks etc.
To understand and build appropriate supervised learning algorithms for regression problems like Linear regression, Polynomial regression, Ridge regression etc.
To understand and build appropriate un-supervised learning algorithms for clustering, linear and non-linear dimensionality reduction etc.
To understand architectures and build Sequential and Generative AI models like RNNs, LSTMs, Autoencoders, GANs etc.
To understand formal methods to define Reinforcement Learning techniques (Markov Decision Process) and algorithms to measure cumulative rewards (Q-Leaning and Deep Q-Networks).
To test run appropriate ML algorithms on real world and synthetic datasets and interpret their results over ML frameworks like ScikitLearn, TensorFlow, Keras, PyTorch etc.

Second Semester, CS F211 (Data Structures and Algorithms):

Scope and Objectives of the Course: A data structure is a collection of large amounts of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied on them. In order to be effective, data has to be organized in a manner that adds to the effectiveness of an algorithm, and data structures such as stacks, queues, linked lists, heaps, trees, and graphs provide different capabilities to organize and manage large amounts of data. While developing a program or an application, many developers find themselves more interested in the type of algorithm used rather than the type of data structure implemented. However, the choice of data structure used for a particular algorithm is always of paramount importance. For example, B-trees have unique abilities to organize indexes and hence are well suited for implementation of databases; Linked lists are well suited for backtracking algorithms like, accessing previous and next pages in a web browser; Tries are well suited for implementing approximate matching algorithms like, spell checking software or predicting text in dictionary lookups on Mobile phones; Graphs are well suited for path optimization algorithms (like in Google maps) or searching in a Social graph (like Facebook). As computers have become faster and faster, the problems they must solve have become larger and more complex, requiring development of more complex programs. This course will also teach students good programming and algorithm analysis skills so that they can develop such programs with a greater degree of efficiency.

The primary objectives of the course are as under:

Apply various basic data structures such as stacks, queues, linked lists, trees etc. to solve complex programming problems. Understand basic techniques of algorithm analysis.
Design and implement advanced data structures like graphs, balanced search trees, hash tables, priority queues etc. Apply graph and string algorithms to solve real world problems like finding shortest paths on huge maps or detecting plagiarism percentage.
Apply basic algorithmic techniques such as brute-force, greedy algorithms, divide and conquer, dynamic programming etc. to solve complex programming problems and examine their efficiency.

At the end of the course, you should understand common data structures and algorithms, be able to develop new data abstractions (interfaces) and use existing library components in C++.

Bioinformatics Tool Developed

EGF-like domains are found in a variety of proteins and are usually implicated in protein-protein interactions. EGF-like domains can be categorized into 3 types TYPE-I, TYPE-II and TYPE-III EGF domains based upon their structure and function. EGF like Domains Analysis & Comparison Package is a web based Bioinformatic tool that can analyze the given sequence and predict if it contains EGF-like domains. Given a Sequence in any format, it would search for EGF type domains in it and also specify the positions of these domains if any. The tool is GUI based and has been developed using JAVA Applet Programming. EGF like Domains Analysis & Comparison Package also shows the relative graphical positioning of these domains and one can query for the sequences of these domains. The tool also consists of an EGF library, which has about 200 different sequences that contain EGF domains in them. The program uses basic Bioinformatic searching algorithm technique to match to a particular given sequence. It first searches for a set of six Cysteines in the sequence and passes it on for further analysis. Once a set of six Cysteines has been identified, the program looks for whether the given part of the sequence matches to Type-I, Type-II or Type-III domain, based on weight given to each type of domain. As the sequence is matched to each of the Types, a count is increased for each of them. The matching is first carried out on the basis of sequence and then based on the gaps between each of the Cysteines in each of the Domain Types. Once a residue is matched to the set standards the count is increased and once it does not match the count is decreased and so on for each of the domain. Finally all three counts are compared and the Type of Domain identified. If all the counts are too low to be compared then the result is ‘NO EGF like Sequences Found’.

Post-Doctoral Research Area

The primary focus of the project was CTL mediated responses to the hsp 70 of Plasmodium falciparum. The work involved cloning and expression of the P.falciparum hsp 70 gene is a Salmonella system. The gene was also cloned into vectors for use in DNA immunization of different murine strains and in the selectable mammalian expression vector pcDNA3 (Invitrogen).

Experiments were initiated to evaluate the expression of the gene in different mammalian cell lines prior to the immunization of the different murine strains with recombinant DNA vector constructs and the establishment of stable transfectants. Peptides were also designed based on predictive analysis of the P.falciparum hsp 70 gene with reference to CTL epitopes of different murine haplotypes. Experiments were initiated to standardize the CTL assays in different strains of mice using various preexisting vaccinia constructs expressing hsp 70.

In a separate project the P.falciparum hsp 60 gene was expressed in E.coli and the protein partially purified using a 5' polyhistidine tag. Purified protein was used to produce antibodies in mice and experiments were performed to evaluate the expression of hsp 60 in P.falciparum and to evaluate the distribution and localization of hsp 60 in different parasite stages.
