Good quality research requires us to get deep and right to the roots of a problem. The entire process however narrows the vision of the researcher which can potentially lead to a failed research if one starts digging down at the wrong spot. While failures are necessary stepping stones for progress, one needs to minimize them and early recovery aids in fast progress of science. That is where group discussions and collaboration helps by enabling us to retain the broader view. I am very happy with the initiative of the EE students reading group. I have witnessed some very good presentations and Q&A and I hope this activity continues with the same rigor and vigour in the future.

Firstly, I would like to thank you all for giving me this opportunity to share my work with such a vibrant audience. I was thrilled to see the response and also the genuine questions asked during the session. For the preparation of the presentation, I had to do a bit of data searching and revisit some of the key concepts. This gave me a better perspective with regards to the work other people in the world are doing in my domain. This has led to my personal value addition. Also, some of the queries raised during the session were targeting a specific problem which has motivated me to look up and explore more. I could also evaluate myself as a speaker when the audience is not purely a technical one and vice versa as the audience was not only well informed technically but also was looking at the commercial aspects. I would say it was really an enchanting experience for me and I am looking forward towards more such opportunities in the future.

"Student life is the best time to learn and equip ourselves for our career. The reading group is a great way to expand our horizon and learn about a wide range of topics and foster healthy discussion among peers. I strongly recommend that students use this opportunity to learn as much as they can."
