This issue of NE Quest is aspecial one, i.e.
Women’s Special Issue
where we have tried to enter into the scientificworld of women. Today if we look at the global scienario of women in science we findthat women are equally participating and contributing to science and technology asmen. From Marie Curie to Sunita Williams, from Prof. Ashima Chatterjee to Dr.Malinee have proved that women are capable of excercising science. Marie curie wasthe first to beg Nobel Prize twice in the history of science. Every woman is the sourceof vast amount of energy. She has the capacity to be a wife, a mother, a teacher, asister, a child, a pathfinder etc etc at different stages of her life. To be a completewoman, every woman should be well educated and healthy. Then only she cancontribute to the society in an effective way. She can become the best teacher of her children and society as well. She should be aware and conscious enough of what ishappending in her sorroundings. She will be able to run her family as well as thesociety when proper education and scientific knowledge will be provided to her.Hence, it is said that “Educating a Man is Educating an Individual but Educating AWoman means Educating a Society.”This modern era is providing lots of opportunities for all in modern scienceand technology irrespective of gender. So every woman should avail this opportunityand should take all the challenges of life in a positive way. She should learn to feel theenormous amount of energy within her. For all these every women should geteducation and proper training. Needless to mention that Indian women too are proving their capability withflying colours since olden days. Leelavati was the famous mathematician of the past.Gargi and Maitrei were two famous ancient philosophers of India. Dr. KalpanaChawla was the first Indian woman to go into space. Dr. Chandra is the first physicallychallenged Indian woman to earn a doctorate degree in Microbiology and a reciepiento of Golden Card from President. Dr. Indira Nath, Dr. Padma Mandopadhaya, Dr. VeeraH Hingorani and many other Indian women are contributing to their respective fields. North Eastern Indian women are also showing their talents staying around the globe.I am extremly happy that I have got the opportunity to write the editorial of this Women’s special NE Quest. I am greatful to all the members of NE ResearchForum particularly Dr. Arindam Adhikari and the whole editorial team for giving methis opportunity. Thanks to the whole editorial team for their timely help and valuablea advice. I am also feeling great to convey that this time the guest article is written byDr. Malinee, a women scientist of international repute from North East India who isthe source of inspiration for the whole North East Indian Women scientists.Thanking you all again,(Rashmi Rekha Devi)
