Jayanta Bhattacharya
Hi. Let me tell you about myself. I am a research associate working on Molecular Virology in Meharry Medical College, Nashville, Tennessee. I came from Calcutta, India where I did my Ph.D (NICED). Originally I am from Durgapur, about 160 km north-west of Calcutta. I was born and brought up by my parents at Durgapur. Durgapur is the place which I dream almost everytime. I have lots of school buddies there.
My hobbies and interests include traveling in foreign countries and places, listening Hindi and country music, playing mouth organ and guitar, gossiping, make friends and people-watching.
I am lucky to have lots of good buddies. To name a few ,Santanu Mukherjee, Tapan Seal, Sanjib Bhattacharyya, Amartya Banerjee, Ayan Chattaraj, Pallav, Biswadev and more...
I have in Durgapur my mom , my father and my younger brother. My father used to work in Durgapur Steel Plant (SAIL), my mom used to work in a Primary School there. My brother, Prasanta, after graduating with Mathematics took compter lessons and trainig in NIIT and other reputed concerns, worked for diffrerent small companies; now he is engaged in the computer division as senior systems executive and systems administrator in Birla Cements in Durgapur. We have our own SWEET HOME at 68 maulana Azad Sarani, City, Center, Durgapur, where everybody are living. My wife, Mahua (mili) is with me at Nashville.
