Remembering Prof. G. N. Ramachandran on his 104th birth anniversary A pioneer of structural biology, he proposed the triple-helix structure of collagen and co-developed the Ramachandran Plot, which is still used worldwide to understand and validate protein structures. His work laid the foundation for molecular biophysics in India and continues to shape modern biology and drug discovery. Celebrating a visionary who changed how we see the molecules of life. #GNRamachandran #RamachandranPlot #StructuralBiology @DrJitendraSingh @rajesh_gokhale @BricDbt @DBT_inStem @NABI_India @bric_ils @HydNiab @FollowDbtNibmg @NIPGRsocial @NImmunology @BRIC_CDFD @DBT_NCCS_Pune @ICGEB @DBT_inStem @DBT_NBRC @RGCB_Trivandrum @DBT_IBSD @THSTIFaridabad @unescorcb @CSIR_IND @ICGEBNewDelhi @BIRAC_2012 @CSIRIndia @DSTIndia

You can’t have better teachers than Professors Subhash Lakhotia, L. S. Shashidhara and colleagues for fly biology. Apply for this ‘hands-on’ workshop on how teachers can use Drosophila for genetics, cell- and developmental biology. Ask the college teachers in your city to apply. And, enjoy a great intellectual week at @NCBS_Bangalore
Applications are open for the 8th hands-on workshop on using Drosophila melanogaster for biology laboratory classes at NCBS, Bengaluru (2–8 Sept 2026). 🗓️ Apply by July 6, 2026. 🪰 @bhupro

It is important to note that while many companies are laying off, my team is actively recruiting for the following positions: 1. Research Leads (Clinical) 2. Senior Research Fellow (Technical) - IMMEDIATE 3. Senior Research Fellow (Data Science) - IMMEDIATE 4. Data Engineer - IMMEDIATE 5. Post Doc (Computer Vision) If you know a good candidate, please send them my way!
My driver called me and informed me that his son is getting laid off and asked me "Is it because of AI which you are doing, Sir?" I am dumbstruck. He has a daughter who just got married. He had taken loan for the marriage. I do not know how to respond to him.

Vikram's suggestions make a lot of sense. Unless this becomes a national effort, people will continue to suffer - The link between air pollution and mortality is now crystal clear, backed by thorough science. Lets stop deluding ourselves - this needs to happen now.
The smoke storm will pass, winter will end. And we will forget about the air pollution crisis till the next November. Can we try something different this year? Here is my attempt to put together a draft Clean Air Plan. Please share, amend and refine this thread. And let's keep up the pressure all year round till something like this is implemented. (1/13)
