Prof. Suman Chakraborty | Director, IIT Kharagpur | Jadavpur University | IIT Kgp | Part 2

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Prof. Suman Chakraborty, one of India’s most celebrated scientists and an internationally acclaimed researcher, to uncover the story behind India’s first Hydro Lab at IIT Kharagpur. 🧠 At a time when young faculty members were terrified of even entering the Director’s office, Prof. Suman took a bold step — he walked in with a proposal and was told: "You have 2 minutes. Explain it in one sentence." What happened in those two minutes changed the trajectory of innovation at IIT Kharagpur. 🎤 In this conversation, Prof. Suman shares: How he approached the Director to pitch a never-before-done idea Why young faculty feared the Director in those days How he handled the pressure of “explain it in one sentence” The surprising reaction from the Director How a small fund helped him lay the foundation of India’s first Hydro Lab 👨‍🔬 About Prof. Suman Chakraborty: Institute Chair Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, IIT Kharagpur Renowned for groundbreaking research in microfluidics, nanotechnology, and biomedical devices Recipient of the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Award, India’s highest science honor Elected Fellow of the Indian National Science Academy (INSA), Indian Academy of Sciences (IAS), and Indian National Academy of Engineering (INAE) Known for developing low-cost healthcare and diagnostic technologies for underserved populations Named in global lists of top researchers by Stanford University and Clarivate Analytics Mentor to hundreds of young innovators and researchers across India 🚀 This is more than a story of a lab — it’s a story of courage, clarity, and vision. 👉 Don’t miss this inspiring episode. ✅ Products I use: GRENARO J13 Wireless Mike - https://amzn.to/3Tobmiw Osaka OS 550 Tripod - https://amzn.to/40pkWWr Cason Selfie Light for Mobile - https://amzn.to/4ez83Pi Apple iPhone 15 Plus (256 GB) - Black- https://amzn.to/44xwwjl Apple MacBook Air Laptop: Apple M1 - https://amzn.to/44NEaY0 📢 Follow for More: ✅ Instagram : [  / akashchaudhary2441  ] ✅ Linkedin : [  / akash-kumar-kgp  ] ✅ Facebook : [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?...] Chapters : 00:00 - 01:17 - Recap 01:18 - 03:10 - His research topic 03:11 - 05:07 - His starting approach for Microfluidics lab 05:08 - 08:24 - How he convinced the director, IIT Kgp 08:25 - 18:56 - Thoughts about Professor, IIT students 18:57 - 22:45 - Why his inspiration is Sachin Tendulkar 🔔 Subscribe to the channel for more such conversations with India's top minds from IITs, IAS, and beyond. #SumanChakraborty #iitkharagpur #HydroLab #innovation #IITPodcast #iitianakash #ShantiSwarupBhatnagar #microfluidics #IITProfessors #IITPodcast #indianscience #engineeringinnovations #YoungFaculty #ResearchStory #iitlife #iitmotivation #HydroLabIndia #sciencecommunication #STEMIndia #ProfSumanChakraborty #scienceinspiration #academicleadership #DirectorMeeting #BreakthroughStory #StartupFromScience #SciencePodcast #IITProfessors #MicrofluidicsIndia #LabInnovation #ProfessorJourney #ShantiSwarupBhatnagarAward #KharagpurMoments #HiddenStoriesOfIIT
