  Upcoming Seminars/Meetings

  • Geophysical Interferometry

  • Title : Geophysical Interferometry

    Speaker : Prof. V. K. Gaur, 
                    Emeritus Scientist, CSIR Fourth Paradigm Institute
                    Former Director, National Geophysical Research Institute

    Venue and Time : C. V. Raman Hall, 7th December 2018, 4:00 pm 

  • Development of a Green & Sustainable Manufacturing Process for MK-7264
  • Title: Development of a Green & Sustainable Manufacturing Process for MK-7264
    Speaker  Dr. Kallol Basu
    Time: C. V. Raman Halll, 28th november 2018 (4.00-5.30 pm)
    Abstract: 
    MK-7264 is a P2X3 antagonist that is currently being interrogated in Ph3 for Chronic cough. While the old synthetic route was effective for the synthesis of multi-kilo API, it was deemed unsuitable for the preparation of API on metric ton scale.
    The evolution of a short, safe, cost-effective and robust process that has been successfully demonstrated on large scale will be discussed.
  • Estimating entanglement in large-scale noisy topological codes
