Scholars may pursue studies at any of the university’s seven internationally top-ranked graduate schools\, and will be educated to navigate across business\, government\, academia\, and the nonprofit sectors.  \nKnight-Hennessy Scholars join a multidisciplinary\, multicultural community of scholars who are preparing for leadership in a highly diverse and complex world. Knight-Hennessy Scholars participate in the King Global Leadership Program and receive up to three years of financial support to pursue a graduate degree program in any of Stanford’s seven graduate schools. \nPresenter: Christian Tanja\, Assistant Director of Admissions

SUMMARY:Scientifically Speaking Season 4 Session 3: Microscopic Warfare and Human Health: Let the microbes fight our battle
DESCRIPTION:Can you imagine someone sprinkling Gangajal on a person’s wound\, and it magically gets cured? How scientific would it be? Buzzz: is it even possible in the first place? Well\, that’s what Basudeb will discuss in the third session of Scientifically Speaking Season 4.  \nEvery living species\, including humans\, are vulnerable to opportunistic predators (an organism that lives by preying on other organisms). While we are in a much safer place to protect ourselves from macroscopic predators such as lions\, snakes\, sharks\, etc.\, microscopic predators such as viruses\, bacteria\, etc.\, have always been a great challenge\, mainly because of their scale and evolutionary dynamics. One good thing about some of these microbes\, their lives are not trouble-free either. Often\, microbes are engaged in microscopic warfare with other microbes. Basudeb will discuss how we can harbor some of these microbial weapons to improve human health. He will also discuss the prospect of using some of these microbes themselves in the biocontrol of diseases. \n\n\nSpeaker: \nBasudeb Maji \nAssistant Professor\, Chemistry and Biology\nAshoka University \n\n\n\n\nSep 9\, 2022 06:00 PM IST
