what a race!.
Brilliant anchor leg from Subha Venkatesan wins India 🥇in the women's 4x400m relay at the Asian Championships. Level with Vietnam, Subha kept her cool when the Sri Lankan runner stormed past her. Kept enough in reserve for a strong finishing kick as 🇮🇳 clock 3.34.18

Couple this with crumbling infrastructure, garbage clogging roads and drains, and poor land-use decisions. Bengaluru is in deep trouble, with no focused long-term policy visible. Apathy and lack of accountability: @BBMPofficial.

This was an absolute pleasure! Super engaging interactions with the students, who asked insightful questions about ecological processes.
The Orientation-cum-Selection Camp for the Biology Olympiad wrapped up yesterday! A team of 4 students were selected to represent India at the #IBO2025 in the Philippines this July.

Great to see outreach of this kind. Also important to consider the full spectrum of all the research forming the groundwork that yields the piece that turns into 'usable' and 'useful' innovations. In other words, the iceberg nature of how science works. .
How does science move from the lab to the people?. Join Lavika Patil & Anushka Vijay as they explore how innovations, like clean energy & digital learning, become tools for empowerment & social change. @JahnaviPhalkey @RNP_Foundation

Heartening to see this. Seeking legitimization of land-use change operations in ecologically rich areas has been a strategy to circumvent conservation and protection measures. This ruling should provide some succour against such fait-accompli practices.

Sounds intriguing. should be worth attending.
How does a city influence its own climate and, how can we see it happen in real time? . Join CSTEP in a Masterclass that explores the fast-evolving field of urban climate research, using geospatial technologies to track and understand how cities interact with their environments.

Lower elevations allow more variety in flowers. Communications Team @NCBS_Bangalore put together this synopsis of our recent work in the Western Himalaya. Do check it out!.
#ResearchExplained!. @MeghnaSrishti's lab studied how plants fine-tune their strategies to survive & reproduce in challenging environments, like the higher reaches of the Himalayas, where temperatures rarely go beyond 15°C. Read here: ✏️Christeen Paulson

Awards add an incentive no doubt, but the most important thing is that there is hope and effort for Bengaluru to become more ecologically sustainable and climate resilient. I eagerly look forward to this space, discussion, and activities.
#BluGreen Awards recognize impactful climate action in Bengaluru by citizen groups, social & environmental orgs, academic institutes, corporates. document best practices & institutionalise as appropriate. Please nominate good work you noticed in your locality.

Had been lucky enough to see [most likely] this Gaur during our fieldwork and hope that others come in too!.
A Gaur that made its way into @AmrabadTiger in ‘23 appears to have made itself @ home in the tiger reserve, & livened up a safari drive on Thursday. Video courtesy ATR. @dobriyalrm @rohithgopidi @moefcc @ntca_india @DeccanChronicle

Please do check out the latest publication from CaFE lab @NCBS_Bangalore. The work was done by @MustaqeemENV as NPDF @ccmb_csir. Thanks to @serbonline for funding support. Plain language summary:
Glad to share that our latest publication (@MeghnaSrishti , @SoniaRathee4Eco ) is now out in Functional Ecology. "From low to high elevations, flowers adapt traits and phenology to climate, but phenology‐trait relationships weak".
