Hello,
and, Humm...
Welcome, I guess
A Bit About Me
Bengali from the great ’90s, a decade that introduced technology. Biochemist working on Biosensing and Cellular Communication. Wandering around India since 2018. Outside the lab, I’m interested in almost everything from video games to the latest viral video on the internet. Cajonist (wiktionary says that this word exists so…). Exploring communication in many different ways.
