In vivo and In vitro Estimation of Colchicine in Gloriosa superba L. by High Pressure Liquid Chromatography
The presence of Colchicine in Gloriosa superba was confirmed by Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) and High Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) in which a spot coinciding with the authentic sample of Cochicine in Rf value (Colchicine 0.70) appeared. The maximum amount of Colchicine was found in flower (20.7 mg/gdw) and minimum amount was found in stem (7.4 mg/gdw).The In vitro studies showed the maximum amount of Colchicine in 6 week old cultures (22.6 mg/gdw)) and minimum amount in 2 weeks old cultures (15.3 mg/gdw).

Developing conducting polymer nanocomposites with carbon nanomaterials for molecular detection and fuel cell applications
Conducting polymers are attractive for chemical sensors because their conductivity and electrochemical activity is extremely sensitive to molecular interactions. The inherent specificity of the conducting polymer based sensors stems from the fact that only certain chemicals can trigger a dramatic conductance change. It can be made more specific by further chemical functionalization of the polymer. The use of conducting polymers (CPs) as low-cost electrocatalysts was also investigated in the early history of conducting polymer research and applications. However, their low environmental stability, low conductivity, and electrochemical activity limit their practical industrial applications. Inspired by the remarkable electronic and superior mechanical properties of carbon nanomaterials, especially carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and the relatively new material graphene, tremendous efforts have been made over the past decade to fabricate conducting polymer and CNT composites with an aim of synergistically combining the merits of each individual components. In this thesis, a series of novel conducting polymer nanocomposites with these remarkable carbon nanomaterials will be designed and developed with an ultimate goal of sensitive and selective detection of warfare agents for homeland security and low-cost metal free electrocatalysts for fuel cell applications. Experimental results demonstrate that the composite shows dramatically improved performance compared to each of the individual components. The results obtained from these studies combined with an introduction of the state of the art of the development in this field and future prospects will be presented through 6 chapters of this thesis.Ph.

On The Offbeat
On The Offbeat is an experimental documentary that explores the concept of syncopation—traditionally a musical technique involving the displacement of regular beats—to examine displacement, alienation, and resilience within queer and POC communities. Commissioned by Mimosa House Gallery and supported by Arts Council England and Fluxus Art Projects, the film features interviews with interdisciplinary practitioners, including Hannah Catherine Jones, Annie Goh, Rishi Nalin Kumar, Bambi and Dove, reflecting on syncopation in sonic, spatio-temporal, academic, scientific, poetic and culinary contexts. Dance interludes by movement artists Bam Bam (Omar Jordan Phillips) and Dove (Christopher Kirubi) punctuate the film. The work was introduced by curator Daria Khan and screened on Vdrome from 28 June to 11 July 2021, as well as in multiple exhibition and screening contexts throughout 2021–2022, contributing to research discourse in experimental film and diasporic studies.

The dynamics of global financial crises
Thesis (M.Eng. and S.B.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2003.Includes bibliographical references (p. 43-44).This research aims to develop a Markov chain model of the transmission of financial crises. It uses a mathematical programming framework to determine the transition probabilities that describe the crisis dynamics. The framework allows for modelling and comparing various channels of contagion, such as investments and bilateral trade.by Rishi Kumar.M.Eng.and S.B
