K. Porsezian (1963–2018)

On 11 August 2018, the country lost one of the most promising and dynamic upcoming researchers. Kuppuswamy Porsezian, Professor of Physics, Pondicherry Central University, breathed his last at Apollo Hospitals, Chennai due to an unexpected and sudden liver condition at the rather young age of 55. He was destined to achieve greater heights in science but nature snatched him quite unexpectedly leaving his loving family, colleagues, students and a large circle of friends in India and abroad in great despair.
