It was a pleasure to host the Nobel Prize Dialogue India 2025 at TIFR, Mumbai organized by the Nobel Prize Outreach and Tata Trusts. Delighted to be able to introduce the laureate Prof. David MacMillan. What a brilliant talk 'How to Change the World with Catalysis' @TIFRScience

Our sensors reveal lipid distribution in cells on a TIRF setup. Great to see our sensors in action! Thank you Prof. Shalini Low-Nam, Purdue University; this was a collaboration where we contributed our sensors! https://t.co/zIn7s7Xq9x

International Open Access Week 2025: Hear from Indian Researchers

Congratulations to Dr. Smitaroopa Kahali for defending her #PhD in Chemical Sciences at @TIFRScience! Working with Prof. Ankona Datta, she developed fluorescent sensors to track ions in living cells. Read her work: https://t.co/1ab20zqwFJ @smitaroopa15 @Ankona6 #WomenInSTEM

Our Account on exploring organic reactions in water using host-guest CT states in nanocages is out !!! We recount our photocatalytic scheme based on temporal ordering of chemical events after light absorption!!! @roy_957 @KishanKYadav95 @ACSPublications https://t.co/fgMWEf9Hje

Three amazing students graduated from our group in 2024-2025! Dr. Rajasree Kundu developed cell permeable Lipid sensors, Dr. Kunika Gupta developed activity-based sensors, and Dr. Smitaroopa Kahali measured labile Manganese in living cells. Congratulations to all of you!!!

Congratulations Dipto for doing amazing in ICSE standard 10th exams. @Ankona6 and I are proud of you❤️🎉 you deserve all the praise now for the hardwork!!! Enjoy this moment and move on to push your dreams forward☺️☺️☺️☺️ #BeKind #DoWhatYouLove

Excited to report our dream project, morphable 'stitched' sensors for simultaneous imaging of bio-analytes in live cells. Uploaded to Chemrxiv, work by Smitaroopa Kahali and Manisha Bose.

Congratulations Dr. Smitaroopa Kahali on an amazing thesis defense: On the development of fluorescent sensors for tracking the dynamics of bio-analytes in living cells! @TIFRScience

We see lipid dynamics live in neurons, with Vidita Vaidya, Sandhya Koushika, and Ravindra Venkatramani! Congratulations Rajasree Kundu, Samsuzzoha Mondal, Akshay Kapadia and Antara Banerjee @TIFRScience @ChemicalScience https://t.co/CA7rkgYNF9

Dr. Kunika Gupta has officially defended her #PhD at @TIFRScience! Under the supervision of Prof. Ankona Datta, she developed fluorescent sensors that light up in the presence of copper ions in cells and living organisms. 🧵👇 #TIFRScience #PhDefense #DCS_TIFR #Sensors
