"Chai is the indian tea ; so "chai and why" is based on the concept of Scientific café in Europe and US except that in that part of the world tea is the favorite beverage. So as there are Memory Cafés in some countries of the world someday maybe there would be a Memory Chai in India, let's hope. Each time it may starts with a small-mini conference on a health and/or science related topic, the aim of these meeting is to explain clearly, in a way understandable by many the process happening and discuss this scientific issue. For instance, one of the approached thema was : "inside a living cell". It makes science accessible for all even for non-scientific people like me ! it also gives knowledge on your own physical condition and help you in your choices while facing a health issue in your life, it seems to me".
