Zeroing in curates short conversations with scientific researchers primarily about their field of work, current research, ideas on interesting natural phenomena, and their drive for pursuing science and engineering. Given the rapid advancements in various fields of sciences and detailed specializations therein, we work on generating scientific awareness especially about the varied fields of research that lay forth in the context of the community at present, with increasingly interdisciplinary and advanced avenues opening up for research.
Zeroing In with Prof. Anindya Sinha | Part 1 | On Primatology and Nuances of Scientific Philosophy
Even Darwin pointed out that his ideas on categorizing species might not be the most perfect way of understanding varieties in nature. But how do you study individuals and their species individually?
What is the definition of ‘boundaries’ when you move through the behavioral terrains of the nature?
The answers to such questions can reveal a long history of evolution and in our third conversation of the fifth season of Zeroing In we set out to scratch the surface of these defining questions. In the first part of this splendid conversation with Prof. Anindya Sinha we learn and unlearn ideas of studying the nature. Prof. Sinha is currently a Professor at NIAS, Bengaluru and his research interests span a plethora of disciplines ranging from behavioral ecology to molecular genetics. He has a master’s degree in botany and a PhD. in molecular biology. Alongside his wide ranging research interests he is also passionate about scientific outreach and popularization.

Zeroing In with Prof. Thejesh Bandi | Part 2 | On Building India's First Atomic Clock at ISRO
How do we measure time to the utmost precision? How do we even define time? What’s the need for a definition? And where does fundamental science really matter to the everyday affairs we go through?
The questions that subtly sit right beside our daily routines, and are conveniently pushed on the other side of the horizon more often than not — are the same questions that lend the modern world’s working mechanisms a precise meaning and synchronicity. On the crossroads of philosophy and physics, we discuss about the practical aspects of the frontier of the research directions that delineate the physical world around us with the man behind India’s first space-based atomic clock that was launched by ISRO in 2023, Prof. Thejesh N. Bandi.
