Subbaram, completed his early education there before moving to the Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh state, India, to take his Bachelor ’s degree and Master ’s degree in Physics in 1960 and 1962. Then he joined the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh state, India, and took his Ph.D. degree ( Physics ). Later, he spent some time in Dublin, Republic of Ireland, and, in Halifax, Canada, on fellowships for research studies and made some significant contributions to scientific knowledge.
Kota V. Subbaram returned to India and joined Maharshi Dayanand University, Rohtak, Haryana state, India, and taught Physics for about a decade. Having then found his interests in education, literacy, science communication and issues concerning society, he took up relevant activities. He contributed several articles, letters to the editor, essays – covering a gamut of topics in the context of Indian society – to newspapers, magazines, and journals. He authored a number of books on science, education, scientific temper, science-society interface, and philosophy of science. He received, on behalf of the organization he was heading, an award from the Government of India for the best work done in science communication.
Kota V. Subbaram’s creative literary talents culminated in a number of published poems – later brought out as collections of poems at various times in the last about forty years. A metaphysical monologue by him – lamenting the failure of human evolution from a mere (static) organic existence to a (dynamic) psycho-social level – received critical appreciation in literary circles in India. All in all, the entire volume of literary works by the author has received rave reviews (A hungry heart ... a kind of genius) in various journals, magazines, and newspapers.
Kota V. Subbaram also directed research on validation of Indian Ayurvedic medicinal practices mentioned in the ancient texts, using modern medical research protocols, prescribing the medicines to patients with ailments which led to several volumes of documentation of the results of clinical studies, as also research papers published in peer-reviewed inter / national journals.
The poet has received biographical honors from the American Biographical Institute, Raleigh, North Carolina, USA, and from the International Biographical Centre, Cambridge, UK, for services to the fields of Education, Literature, Sciences, and Human Welfare.
Presently, the poet resides in Hyderabad, India. Email: kvs_42@yahoo.comver menos
