Inventa is a collaborative initiative that developed across students pursuing pure science degrees across ten national institutes of science in India and serves to act as a student-led educational science communication platform. Through the means of this annual magazine, we intend to sow the seeds of a common science platform on the foundations of the premier research institutes of our country. Led by undergraduate and postgraduate students at the seven Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (Mohali, Thiruvananthapuram, Kolkata, Pune, Bhopal, Tirupati and Berhampur), the National Institute of Science Education and Research, the Centre for Excellence in Basic Sciences and the Indian Institute of Science, Inventa aims to preserve the spirit of scientific thought while presenting the same in a unique front accessible to students, aspiring students and professionals alike.
