Profile of Scientist– Dr. G. N. Ramachandran

Dr. G. N. Ramachandran (1922-2001)
G. N. Ramachandran was born on 8 October 1922 in Ernakulam, Kerala.
His father G. Narayana Iyer was the principal of Maharaja’s college in
Ernakulam. Ramachandran did his intermediate from Maharaja’s college and
his B.Sc. (Hons) in Physics from St. Joseph’s College, Tiruchi. In 1942 he
joined the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore as a student in the
Electrical Engineering department. However, under the influence of C.V.
Raman, he shifted to Physics. He obtained his M.Sc. and then his Ph.D. in
1947, under Raman’s supervision. He then went to the Cavendish Laboratory,
Cambridge and obtained his second Ph.D degree under Prof. Wooster. He returned to India in 1949 and joined IISc as an Assistant Professor. In 1952, at the young age of 30, he moved to Madras as the Head of the Physics Department at the University of Madras. On the suggestion of J.D. Bernal, the crystallographer and chemist, who visited the University in 1952, he started work on determining the structure of the protein collagen, the fibrous protein found in skin, bone and tendon. Based on the limited data available at the time, in 1954, he proposed, along with Gopinath

Kartha, the triple-helix structure for collagen, later revised in the light of new data to the coiled structure for biomolecules. This was a fundamental advance in the understanding of biomolecular structures. He and his colleagues C. Ramakrishnan and V. Sasisekharan went on to develop methods to examine and assess structures of biomolecules, in particular peptides. In 1963, this resulted in the famous Ramachandran map, which is an indispensable tool in the study of molecular structures today.

His 1971 paper with A.V. Lakshminarayanan on three-dimensional image reconstruction was to have important applications in Computer Assisted Tomography. (The 1979 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to A.M. Cormack and Sir G.N. Hounsfield for their work in CAT). In 1971 Ramachandran returned to Bangalore to set up the Molecular Biophysics Unit at the IISc which is today a major research centre. He was elected Fellow of the Royal Society in 1977 and was awarded he Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar award. In 1999, The International Union of Crystallography awarded him the prestigious Ewald Prize, which is given only once in three years. He was the editor of Current Science between 1950 and 1957.He and A.V. Lakshminarayanan developed convolution back projection algorithms which greatly improved the quality and practicality of results obtainable by x-ray tomography computer processing time for image reconstruction, as well as providing more numerically accurate images. As a result, commercial manufacturers of x-ray tomographic scanners started building systems capable of reconstructing high resolution images that were almost photographically perfect.

New Inventions

The Spherical Sun Power Generator

German Architect Andre Broessel believes he has a solution that can “squeeze more juice out of the sun”, even during the night hours and in low-light regions. His company Rawlemon has created a spherical sun power generator prototype called the beta.ray. His technology will combine spherical geometry principles with a dual axis tracking system, allowing twice the yield of a conventional solar panel in a much smaller surface area. The futuristic design is fully rotational and is suitable for inclined surfaces, walls of buildings, and anywhere with access to the sky. It can even be used as an electric car charging station. Scroll down for photos and video.“The beta.ray comes with a hybrid collector to convert daily electricity and thermal energy at the same time. While reducing the silicon cell area to 25% with the equivalent power output by using our ultra transmission Ball Lens point focusing concentrator, it operates at efficiency levels of nearly 57% in hybrid mode. At night time the Ball Lens can transform into a high-power lamp to illuminate your location, simply by using a few LED’s. The station is designed for of grid conditions as well as to supplement buildings’ consumption of electricity and thermal circuits like hot water.”
