Education

Raman received his bachelor's degree in biology from Loyola College, Madras followed by a master's degree in biology from Presidency College, Madras, and PhD & DSc degrees in ecology from Madras University.[3] As a graduate student, he researched at the Université Louis Pasteur, France, on the nutritional physiology of gall-inducing Tubulifera.[4]

Research

Raman received a Fulbright Award[3] in 1990 to work with Warren G. Abrahamson, of Bucknell University on population ecology and evaluated energetics using the Solidago–Rhopalomyia system.[5] Raman received a German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) grant[6] to study the aseptic dual culture technique using Pemphigus and its primary host Populus and secondary host Taraxacum, and hypersensitive responses among species of Vitis to infestations of Daktulusphairia vitifoliae.[7] Raman collaborated with Rolf Beiderbeck of Rurpecht–Karls Universität, to work on a protocol for raising plant‑feeding insects on aseptically‑grown tissue callus of its host plant, using the Trialeyrodes–Stellaria system.[8]

In 2000, he received the Ian Potter Foundation’s award[9] and visited the University of Nebraska, to evaluate the nutrient mobilization in the moth-induced galls of the parthenium weed using stable isotope mass spectrometry.[9] Raman received an Australian Academy of Science fellowship[10] to visit the National Chung Hsing University, Taiwan to study the nutritional ecology of insects invading Machilus thunbergii.[11][12] Raman was invited by the Indian National Science Academy (INSA), on a Vulimiri Ramalingaswami Fellowship,[13] through which he conducted workshops and training programs at Indian universities.[14][15]
