He has a great deal of drive and enthusiasm for the field, and is undeniably an expert in inorganic/materials synthesis & characterization. That's all I'm going to say. :rolleyes:
 
Wow!
You met Dr. C.N.R.Rao? How come? I just read an interview of his in the Times of India today(somewhere in the middle pages). Its actually about a topic I've been working on for a project...the decrease in the number of Physics students in India and worldwide.
