S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences
The S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences is an autonomous research institute engaged in research in basic sciences. The institute was founded under Department of Science and Technology, Government of India in 1986 as a Registered Society. The Centre was established to honour the life and work of Professor S. N. Bose who was a colossal in theoretical physics and has made some of the most fundamental conceptual contributions in the development of Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Statistics. The Centre has emerged as a major institution for research and development in Basic Sciences.

News & Achievements
- Dr. Shubhasis Haldar, Associate Professor of the Centre has been elected as INSA ASSOCIATE FELLOWS 2023.Congratulations to Dr. Haldar for his work in understanding chaperone biology using single molecule tools. Using covalent magnetic tweezers Dr Haldar’s group has examined how chaperones mechanically influence the cellular energetics and respond to mechanical force.
- Dr. Tapas Baug, Assistant Professor in Department of Astrophysics and High Energy Physics of S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences has been recognized for his 'Outstanding contribution as a Reviewer for Journal of Astrophysics and Astronomy, Indian Academy of Sciences, in the year 2022'.
- Mr. Ardhendu Pal, a PhD student from the group of Professor Manik Pradhan has received the "Best Oral Presentation Award" for his work Cavity Ring-down Spectroscopy in the P. C. Ray Memorial International Conference on “Contemporary Ideas, Innovations & Initiatives in Chemical Sciences” held at Presidency University, Kolkata during 23-24 August, 2023.
- Dr. Barnali Ghosh (Saha), Scientist F of the Centre has received "International Distinguished Scientist Award" for the Research & Academic excellence in " Condensed Matter Physics and Material Science" by ASIA RESEARCH AWARDS at the Asia's Science Technology Awards Congress (ASTRA) 2023 on 1st July, 2023.
- Professor Anjan Barman, Senior Professor of the Department of Condensed Matter and Materials Physics of the S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences has been awarded the prestigious 'Royal Society Wolfson Visiting Fellowship' by The Royal Society, UK. Many congratulations to Professor Barman for this major achievement.
- Prof. Tanusri Saha-Dasgupta, Director of the Centre has joined the Executive Editorial Board of JPhys Materials, IOP Science. Heartiest Congratulation to the Director Madam.
- Dr. Barnali Ghosh (Saha), Scientist-F of the Centre has received the Best Paper award for the invited lecture presentation in the 'International Conference on Recent Trends in Materials Science & Devices 2023 (ICRTMD-2023)'.
- A pattern-recognition based method has been developed from the group of Prof. Manik Pradhan in the Centre for non-invasive diagnosis and classification of various gastric conditions. The new method exploits cluster analysis of breathomics dataset generated from the patented "Pyro-Breath" technology developed in the group.
- Mr. Ardhendu Pal, a PhD student from the group of Prof. Manik Pradhan has received the "Best Poster Award" for his work Cavity Ring-down Spectroscopy in the Indo-UK workshop: Photonics in Healthcare, Atmosphere, Safety and Education (PHASE-2023) held at IIT Gandhinagar on 30th March, 2023.

Research Highlights by DST Media Cell
New chemically stable cathode material can make Li-ion batteries more efficient
A newly synthesized crystalline, chemically stable material, belonging to the class of crystalline porous organic polymers with permanent porosity and highly ordered structures, could enhance energy density of found to be ideal as a cathode for Li-S batteries and make them more efficient.
Scientists design first-ever 2D composite quantum material useful for spintronic devices like transistors & diodes
A research team under the leadership of Prof. Tanusri Saha Dasgupta at the S.N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences, an autonomous institution of the Department of Science and Technology (DST) focused their computational research on 2-D quantum materials, which are materials with confined geometry in one of the directions. 2-D materials are important as they are easier to assimilate in devices.
Novel features spotted on radiation emitted from black hole due to atoms falling into it could help understand unification of quantum theory with gravity
Scientists have explored novel quantum effects on the radiation emitted from a black hole due to atoms freely falling into it. This investigation of atoms falling into a black hole could throw new light on the efforts of scientists towards unification of quantum mechanics which plays out at the smallest scales of matter and the general theory of relatively propounded by Einstein which is applicable at the largest cosmological scales.The two most successful scientific theories of the past century are the general theory of relativity and quantum theory. Quantum theory describes the microscopic behaviour of fundamental particles whereas the general theory of relativity accurately describes the motion of objects or particles around a massive object which is the exact mathematical description of the theory of gravitation at the classical level.
Doctors may soon diagnose peptic ulcer & disease stage by recognising breath patterns Doctors may soon diagnose peptic ulcer & disease stage by recognising breath patterns
A newly developed non-invasive method of recognising breath patterns can help rapid, one-step diagnosis and classification of various gastric disorders like dyspepsia, gastritis, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Currently, peptic ulcer disease is an important medical-social problem that has received special attention all over the world. Helicobacter pylori bacterial infection is considered to be the most significant risk factor for the development of this disease. Patients with peptic ulcer encircling both duodenal and gastric ulcer may remain asymptomatic or symptomatic, and due to undefined risk factors along with lack of specific symptoms at the early stages, the diagnosis is often delayed, leading to poor prognosis and high rates of recurrence of the diseases.
