When I was young, I never blinked at anyone (you’ll have to take my word for it). Now, at the tail end of my career—perhaps even my life—I’m required to mark my biometric attendance by blinking twice a day. Life really does know how to play a practical joke, doesn’t it?.

Your gut microbes can signal you to eat less. Flagellin triggers a “neurobiotic sense” in the gut-brain circuit, adjusting feeding in real time. #Gutbrainaxis

Nature - A study reveals a gut–brain sensory pathway through which the microbial component flagellin activates neuropod cells in the colon to signal the brain and reduce feeding in mice.

An Austrian lab is now probing live human brain cells, pushing the frontier of what it means to study the mind. From neurons in a dish to questions of consciousness—science is inching closer to decoding ourselves. @DBT_NBRC.

Scientists in Austria are studying live human brain cells and comparing them to those of mice. Their findings raise questions about memory, culture, and what makes us ‘special’.

By soliciting the active participation of women as ‘Campus Mothers’, the initiative is likely to exclude men from this important initiative.

Heartening to see PIs extremely happy with the @ANRFIndia grant submission portal. Many expressed similar views about @ICMRDELHI too. I hope other funding bodies follow suit to give PIs a similar hassle-free experience.

A bold step for "Ease of Doing Science". Time to push for 1% of GDP in science funding, ramp up faculty hires in national labs & MHRD institutes, and significantly boost state university support. With US cuts, India can attract top global talent. @PrinSciAdvGoI @insa_academy.
Here is a heartening news and a major breakthrough for young aspiring #StartUps, Innovators and Researchers:. In a landmark step enabling #EaseOfDoingResearch, .the GFR rules have been simplified for procurement of scientific equipment and consumables. This will reduce delays,
