Dr. Ishani Chakrabartty is a doctorate in
Biotechnology from IIT Guwahati. Being a qualified researcher, Dr.Ishani was
selected and assumed the post of HoD of the Dept. Of Science, PAFGC, Mangalore
University, at the young age of 28. Though she is an academician by profession,
Ishani is a full-time blogger, especially in women-related issues. She believes
that it is 'unethical' not to help people with the blessings and opportunities
The Almighty has bestowed her with. She aspires to bring about small changes in society through written words. Though she is known as Ishani maam or HoD
maam, Ishani wants to be remembered not as a scientist or researcher, but as a
writer who has the capacity to inspire young minds. Being emotional at heart,
she mostly blogs about certain incidents from everyday life that affects her
tremendously. These incidents, she believes, mirrors how society has
changed as she has grown and how it has become more centered around materialism
than values and ethics. Though teaching is her passion, writing is a part of
her soul - she says "I can survive any job at any part of the world,
provided I get a chance to be around books and have access to pen and
paper. " She strongly believes that an educated woman with a pen is the
most dangerous creature in the world!
