IPR in Life Sciences :Unlock & Harness Your Innovative Potential
Invited lecture on IPR in Life Sciences :Unlock & Harness Your Innovative Potential on 9th January 2017 in the Refresher Course in Life Sciences of the UGC-HRDC (University of Calcutta)(thrust area: Challenges and options in Life Science Research in the developing world today) for college and university teachers during Dec.23- Jan.13, 2017 at the Department of Zoology, University of Calcutta , 35, Ballygunge Circular Road, Kolkata-700019.
Creativity is an enigmatic issue. It is influenced and governed by so many determinants that it is yet to be defined properly. It has both philosophical and functional perspectives as well. Presentation is dealt with only its functional side which is manifested in tangible forms. IPR and life sciences has very complex relationship which became more complex with the emerging biotechnology and priority of the industries. Patenting life science invention from its ideation stage to granting a patent has been lucidly demonstrated in this presentation.

ICT: a catalyst for learning & innovation
Invited Lecture (on 27th Feb 2017) in the Short Term Course on Computer & Digital Education conducted by the UGC-HRDC, University of Calcutta
ICT has brought to us immense possibilities for imparting teaching-learning process without compromising 3 cardinal principles of higher education i.e., access, equity and quality. Accessing to the global open knowledge also led to open innovation and it was made possible only because of global connectivity on ICT platform. Moocs to M-learning attesting the importance and indispensability of ICT to reach the unreached.
Open Innovation Vs Open Knowledge: emerging a new IPR regime
New century calls for new innovation system. Instead of individualistic closed innovation we require participative open innovation or collective creation. Closed innovation system is not adequate to solve the societal issues. However openness of open knowledge doesn't necessarily mean free access or free ride of technologies rather it aims at non-discriminatory access of technologies that may be used by IP licensing. Unlike open knowledge open innovation demands three types of open innovations like- Out side-in, Inside-out and joint innovation. Almost all big organizations like IBM, Microsoft, Philips have embraced open innovation to make better , improvised and innovative product to solve various social problems.

Intellectual Property Rights(IPR):Protecting Your Creativity
Invited lecture in 117th Orientation Programme of the Human Resource Development Centre (HRDC) , UGC of the University of Calcutta.
Creativity is the basis of our very existence on earth. It is also the precursor of societal progress. The culture of instilling of creativity, invention and innovation makes a society enriched than another society. Valley of Death is an inevitable step that has to pass through every invention before it becomes innovation that diffused to the society in the course of time. Creativity has two dimensions-one is philosophical another is functional. Creativity is based upon novel idea regardless of types and the reason which initiated the process. Even the most novel can not be protected until it is not manifested tangibly. Presentation has focused on four different basic forms of IPR i.e., Patent, Trademark, Industrial Design and copyright with suitable real life examples.

Invited Lecture on “Complementary nature of conventional and digital library in modern information dissemination system” on 22nd December at NIRJAFT, ICAR Kolkata
Whether traditional libraries or digital library or a judicious combination of those two will stay in the years to come or not- it is not only difficult to answer but also paradoxical to our socio-economic and cultural priorities. But whatever form survives or whatever policy has made for their sustenance in the future it must be aimed at holistic societal progress and reflect the aspiration of the community they serve.IPR and Human Rights: an introduction
Invited Lecture of the Department of Anthropology, University of Calcutta in their Masters in Human Rights Program (2016-17)
Grow with ICT
We are, no doubt, quite habituated with Chalk and Talk method in our class. It is also practiced all over the world. But integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in our teaching-learning process, in our curriculum is an undeniable fact. It is not only the demand of the hour, National Assessment & Accreditation Council (NAAC) has made adopting ICT mandatory. Besides, for promotion or direct recruitment in superior position, now teachers need to furnish Academic Performance Indicator (API) that also provides points for the teachers who has integrated ICT in delivering their lectures. Thus embracing ICT not only benefits Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs) but also facilitates teachers as well as preparing students for the 21st century and beyond. In today's world access, equity and quality are 3 cardinal principles to promote advancement of learning and higher education. I have divided my presentation in 3 parts-firstly I have given few introductory concepts, next, 7 practical steps to inculcate ICT in your college and thirdly, few important initiatives that have taken by the MHRD through its NMEICT project. In fact, ICT has changed our lives, the way we think, work, read and learn. Some people may think that ICT has changed everything which they may not be able to cope up with but this is not true because nothing has changed. Only the form, formats, storage and delivery mechanism have changed. We have to take our education to the next higher level to make our education globally competing and we have to connect with the world through exchanging our ideas and our resources. ICT has empowered us for better and improved communication, collaboration, critical thinking and creativity. ICT is change agent. These 4C's can change the higher educational scenario in our country in the years to come.
Copyright for academia
Copyright has always been very confusing in academia across the continents. It will remain so forever with the changing technological as well as socio-cultural perspectives from time to time. Among all, teacher-learner exceptions are considered to be the most debatable one. Academicians should always promote and practice fair use of the copyrighted materials in academia and scholarship. This is the basic premise to encourage creativity and proliferation of knowledge in the years to come. File sharing through internet, use of social media for academic work, submitting scholarly works in cloud has blurred the difference between copyright owners, creators and copyright file keepers or servers. Identifying, establishing and enforcing copyright for scholarly digital content gradually has become a challenging task. There can not be any simple solution to the present complexities to satisfy all kind of stakeholders in academia. Balancing al the stakeholders interests is the only key to keep afloat in the ocean of new scholarly ecosystem.
Demystifying ………..Copyright…
Copyright, an important variant of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) is too complex to tackle after the inception of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Many cases like imprisonment of a Columbian researcher for sharing a research article online, closing of Rameshawari photocopy centre in Delhi University by Oxford University Publishing (OUP) and Cambridge University press in the charge of unfair dealing with their books, several cases of passing off, debate on the ownership of selfie taken by a female Celebes black crested monkeys are the reflections of this complexity. Creativity is the only thing without which a nation cannot be advanced. All creations must be protected and rewarded by copyright. Particularly scholarly communication in developing countries like India suffer a lot when we almost compel to publish our research outputs funded by the governmental research funders in commercial publishing houses. Copyright act, 1957 says about various types of activities that amount to fair use. Four factor analyses for fair use should be religiously followed to keep us within the limit of law. Cases of plagiarism is still rampant in educational arena here in India. Digital Rights Management (DRM) has been devised as a bunch of copyright protection technologies to ascertain the rights information of copyrighted materials being accessed in electronic environment. Internet has brought information revolution in the world but the same internet is being used for violating copyrights for distribution of counterfeited and pirated digital contents. Even people misuse BitTorrent, a communication protocol meant for for sharing large files between peer to peers and YouTube, predominantly a video sharing community and violate copyright laws for unfair use of copyrighted resources. Until we change our mindset and our moral ethics towards creativity and respect copyright of others, no plagiarised tool or any such device or mechanism can clean the academic environment and scholarly communication which in fact detrimental to progression of a nation in long term.
Understanding Innovation & IPR to Recreate Our Future
Invited Lecture on 8th December 2015 in Orientation Programme of UGC-HRDC of Jadavpur University, Kolkata, West Bengal>>>
Invention is the key to economic development of any nation. No invention can be diffused to the desired level in the society until it is successfully innovated and induce further invention. Creation of any new idea, conceptualization of the idea to its production of new product or process to solve a specific problem-in every stage requires protection by Intellectual property rights (IPR). Protection of invention and innovation through various forms of IPR particularly patents not only act as a lever of economic growth but also minimise the social inequality in the society. Creating a climate of invention, subsequent innovation protected by IPR will help us to recreate our future.
Mapping of public_libraries (2)
History of public libraries in West Bengal dates back to almost 200 years or so. Presently there are almost 2500 public libraries including Govt., and Govt. sponsored libraries at different tiers. Over the years unplanned growth, dismal services and poor infrastructure made the public library system in West Bengal not only ineffective but also defunct tool to promote mass education, literacy and social awareness. The situation calls for a comprehensive mapping of the whole public library system in West Bengal to make it an effective and inclusive tool for social change and social innovation.
How green is my library. in serach of sustainability...
Building green library is a well-informed and conscious choice and responding to environmentalism. In fact, library has long been practising ‘reuse’ principle as one of the three basic principles of sustainability. We just need to address other two i.e., reduce and recycle through its actions and choices. Present study has closely examined the potential aspects of the library for greening through which we can realise sustainable library and information services. Finally it is concluded with notes for further research challenges for this complex as well as economically, philosophically, culturally and climatologically challenging issue.

Basanti devi college library
This document provides information about the library at Basanti Devi College. It summarizes the library's resources and services. The library has a central library, departmental libraries, and reading rooms. It has over 30,000 printed books and journals as well as over 100,000 e-books and 4,500 e-journals. Services include book lending, reference services, career guidance, and access to online resources. The goal is to make the college community fully digitally literate and serve as a center of excellence for digital learning.
Reinventing & redefining education ICT way
This document discusses the need to reinvent and redefine education through the use of information and communication technologies (ICT). It notes that ICT has become increasingly affordable and can help address imbalances in education. The document outlines the ICT infrastructure at the author's institution and how NAAC accreditation requires the integration of ICT. It argues that the traditional mode of teaching facts and information does not prepare students for the 21st century. Given students' current technology skills and learning environments, educators must rethink how they teach to develop skills like searching, evaluating, and collaborating with information.
LIS Educational Trend in India: where are we heading to?
The document discusses trends in library and information science (LIS) education in India. It provides a historical background of LIS education from the early 20th century to present. Currently, 120 universities offer bachelor's degrees, 78 offer master's degrees, and 16 offer M.Phil degrees. The present trends include the growth of ICT, distance education programs, interdisciplinary research, and full-fledged LIS departments. However, the focus remains on serving academic communities and there is a lack of quality control. The objectives of LIS education need to be redefined to better serve information needs across all societal levels and make India information rich.

Intellectual Property Rights to explore Biodiversity issues: Present inputs, current debates, and future prospects DRM and future of the libraries ahead
The document discusses digital rights management (DRM) and its potential impacts on libraries. It begins by defining intellectual property, intellectual property rights, and copyright. It then explains how DRM works as a technological means of protecting digital content and enforcing usage rules. While DRM provides benefits like secure distribution and content protection, it may also create tensions with principles of copyright law like fair use, preservation, and the ability to access and transform works. The document outlines several ways DRM could negatively impact libraries and their functions if implemented in a way that overrides exceptions and flexibility in copyright law. Librarians should carefully consider DRM technologies and their implications for maintaining balances in the system.
Disaster & libraries -are we ready for the worst?
The document discusses disaster preparedness for libraries. It begins by defining disasters and their features, and types of natural and human-made disasters. It notes the wrong attitude that "it will never happen" and discusses libraries' vulnerabilities. Examples of past natural and human-made disasters impacting libraries are shown. The document outlines the phases of disaster planning: prevention, preparedness, response and recovery. It provides examples of digital information sources for disaster management at national and international levels. A model disaster information system is referenced. The conclusion emphasizes that disaster planning is essential to best protect collections from damage.

How to Fix the Import Error in the Odoo 17
An import error occurs when a program fails to import a module or library, disrupting its execution. In languages like Python, this issue arises when the specified module cannot be found or accessed, hindering the program's functionality. Resolving import errors is crucial for maintaining smooth software operation and uninterrupted development processes.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
