To encourage a confluence of the latest development in the field of science and technology and to foster the exchange of knowledge and ideas, the Research Scholars of IIT Palakkad take the initiative to organize Research Scholars' Day (RSD) at the Institute every academic year. The events at RSD include research talks by invited eminent researchers, Institute faculty, and research scholars to facilitate and encourage knowledge transfer and insightful discussions. This year (2022-23) marks the fifth edition of RSD.

The ribosome is the ancient and enormous molecular machine that reads genetic information on mRNA to synthesize the proteins that are essential for all life. I will talk about my own efforts to determine the structure of the ribosome, and what we learned from it. I will also talk about my career path, which involved living in three continents and switching from physics to biology.
