Guest:
Gaurav is a theoretical physicist currently pursuing his Ph.D. at Cornell University. His current areas of research are quantum computing and condensed matter physics. He likes learning about everything ranging from science to linguistics and history, so he spends most of his free time reading books and contemplating on his learnings. He spends a lot of time practicing meditation. He’s been practicing Vipassana meditation for the last four years in order to learn about the reality of human nature from an introspective view. He strongly opposes social media since he believes that they are unjustly exploiting our instincts in order to generate data hence revenue. He also likes playing guitar and listening to music in his free time. When it’s not winter, he likes to get out and hike as many mountains as he can.
