Debi Sarkar - A Lifestory

Someone is known for their big and new studies in the areas of how our bodies work, how our bodies fight off sickness, and the study of viruses in India. Their path, like a movie with a good story, has been full of hard work, new ideas, and important help to the science world. Picture a scene from the movie "Contagion", but instead of just showing the sickness spreading, the camera focuses on the hard working person trying to learn about and fight the virus – that's how dedicated this person is. Starting their important work life, they quickly became known as someone who was going to do great things. People who worked with them often talk about how smart they are when looking at hard problems, with Dr. Sharma once saying, "Their skill to link together things that don't seem related is really amazing." Their work, especially during important times like the 2009 Swine Flu sickness and more recently, the COVID19 sickness, has been very helpful. Think of them as the science version of Amitabh Bachchan in the movie "Deewar", standing strong against big problems, fighting for the health of the public. Their studies, over many years, have not only made us know more about virus sicknesses but have also made a way for new ways to find and treat them. From their early work in the 1980s to what they are doing now, they have always pushed the limits of what we know in science, making their place strong as a main person in Indian science. They have a great work life, like the successful showing of the movie "Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge", which still makes people excited even after many years.
