He then went to the [[University of London]] to study medicine, but could not pursue studies in medicine due to health problems. Instead, he conducted his research with the [[Nobel Laureate]] [[Lord Rayleigh]] at Cambridge and returned to India. He then joined the [[Presidency College, Kolkata|Presidency College]] of [[University of Calcutta]] as a Professor of Physics. There, despite [[racial discrimination]] and a lack of funding and equipment, Bose carried on his scientific research. He made remarkable progress in his research of remote [[wireless]] signalling and was the first to use [[semiconductor]] junctions to detect radio signals. However, instead of trying to gain commercial benefit from this invention, Bose made his inventions public in order to allow others to further develop his research.
