Tech in India: A Celebration
Debugging your code can seem much easier than debugging your mental health; however, in a global village waking up to the fact that mental health and wellness impact performance, caring for one’s mental health can be simpler if you have the right tools. In this talk, Dr. Amit Neogi, Assistant Professor of Physics at LNM Institute of Information Technology, explains why he started a Center for Wellness and Positive Health at the institute, how you can find the support you need to care for your mental health, and how tech companies can effectively support the mental health and wellness of their people.
