The online public lectures will be live every Tuesday at 7pm on Bakul Foundation social media handles on Facebook, Youtube and Instagram.

The first series in Bakul Talks on the Nobel Prizes for 2020 began on October 27. For the next six weeks, an expert will speak in English about the significance of the contribution of the winner/s of the Nobel Prize for that field and take questions from the audience. 

Tomorrow’s talk on the Nobel Prize for Physics 2020 will be delivered by Prof L P Singh, physicist and cosmologist, who retired from Utkal University and is one of the best known researchers on black holes in India.
