Great Indian scientists and their field of work
- Jagadish Chandra Bose (1858) - Physics, Biology
He was a scientist who worked on the properties of plants and discovered that they have feelings and can respond to external stimuli such as light, sound, and touch. - Prafulla Chandra Ray (1861) - Chemistry
He was a chemist who made significant contributions to the field of chemistry in India. He founded the Bengal Chemical and Pharmaceutical Works, which produced affordable medicines for the masses. - Srinivasa Ramanujan (1887) - Mathematics
He was a mathematician who made significant contributions to the field of mathematics, particularly in the area of number theory. He came up with many new mathematical formulas and theories that are still used today. - Meghnad Saha (1893) - Physics, Astronomy
He was a physicist who made significant contributions to the field of astrophysics. He developed a theory that explains how stars are formed and what happens to them over time. - Satyendra Nath Bose (1894) - Physics
He was a physicist who worked on quantum mechanics and developed a theory that explains how particles behave at very low temperatures. This theory is now known as Bose-Einstein statistics. - Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar (1894) - Chemistry
He was a chemist who made significant contributions to the field of chemistry in India. He founded the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), which is responsible for promoting scientific research in India.Yellapragada Subbarao (1895) - Biochemistry, Pharmacology - Salim Ali (1896) - Ornithology
He was an ornithologist who studied birds and their behavior in India. He is known for his extensive work on bird migration and conservation. - Chandrasekhara Venkata Ramanujan (1897) - Mathematics
He was a mathematician who made significant contributions to the field of mathematics, particularly in the area of number theory. He came up with many new mathematical formulas and theories that are still used today. - Yellapragada Subbarao
He was a biochemist who discovered many important drugs, including the first chemotherapy drug for cancer. He also discovered the role of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in cellular energy transfer. - CV Raman (1888) - Physics
He was a physicist who discovered the Raman effect, which explains how light interacts with matter. This discovery helped scientists better understand the behavior of light and matter. - Homi J. Bhabha (1909) - Physics
He was a physicist who played a key role in the development of India's nuclear program. He also made significant contributions to the field of cosmic rays and high-energy physics. - APJ Abdul Kalam (1931) - Aerospace Engineering, Missile Technology
