Science ka Kura
by Science का kura
‘Science ka Kura’ podcast emerged as a hobby for Aman and Himal, who wanted to have a regular chat on various topics of science. This conversation-based podcast covers the everyday aspects of research around the world. We feel this is important for us and everyone. We hope to come up with the contents regarding the range of contributions by Nepalese researchers. To put it simply, it is the curiosity to inform ourselves and learn from other people and share our conversation to encourage others to pursue research.Music credits: Shreeya Amatya
