Hi everyone! It's been a while. Today I wanted to take advantage of the fact that currently we're in the middle of the conference season and share some of my previous experiences of attending a scientific conference. At the beginning of October, I attended my first in-person conference (DPS 2022) in over two years, and … Continue reading How to more than just ‘survive’ a scientific conference!
Hi everyone! It's been a minute...but you could blame the Canadian summer for that haha!

Hi everyone, It's been a long time since I last posted anything on here, almost two months! I feel like a lot has happened in these past couple of months but at the same time, it doesn't feel like anything has really happened. Personally, it doesn't even feel like a new year to me but … Continue reading ‘New’ year, ‘new’ me… or is it!?
Hi everyone! Today's blog is a bit different than what I usually put out. I have short summaries of three planetary science articles below, two of which are actual, peer-reviewed articles and the remaining one is an imposter! Your task as a reader is to determine which one is the fake one. While I think … Continue reading Two Truths and a Lie!?
Hi everyone! I know I mentioned in my last blog that I'd be talking about my recent field course in Sudbury in the next one but this topic seems more time-appropriate as we are in the middle of India's festival season and just last week celebrated one of my favourite festival, 'Navratri'! On the thanksgiving … Continue reading Navratri: The nine wonderful nights of splendor and dance!
Hi everyone! Today's blog is about a dataset that I'm using for my research here at Western, as one of the participating activities we're doing for this year's Planetary Seminar course! I thought quite a lot about which tool I should write about for this exercise, and in the midst of the hectic schedule of … Continue reading The Microwave Radiometer (MRM) and Brightness Temperatures (TB)
Hi everyone! It's been a while since the last time I posted a new blog. I've been quite busy the last few weeks, as a graduate student as well as in the personal life. A couple of weeks ago I gave a talk at the 12th Planetary Crater Consortium which went great!! (Take that, my … Continue reading Boba Tea- A journey from East to West
