Excited to share our current findings describing the role of glycolysis-mediated sulfur metabolism in fungal morphogenesis Thank you for all the support @sriram_varahan @ccmb_csir

Lab potluck after ages 😊 Amazing food with this wonderful bunch. We played some Jenga too!! Happy Sankranti from all of us 😊 @dhrumishah99 @Phatak6Phatak @siddhigupta1231 @SudharsanM17 @Nikita_Rewatkar @MAdishree @SekarShathya @MobyJoel

We did our first lab Christmas celebration today and it was so much fun. Amazing Secret Santa 🎅 gifts from the peeps 👏🏻 Wishing you all a Merry Christmas 🎄 @dhrumishah99 @Phatak6Phatak @siddhigupta1231 @SudharsanM17 @MAdishree @Nikita_Rewatkar @SekarShathya @ishvarya_suresh

This was such a rejuvenating trip overall. So much so that, we continued discussing more science, even on our trip back to Hyderabad 😊 PS: The mini white board is a game changer and allowed us to truly enjoy the ‘chalk-talk’ style discussions. Highly recommend it 👌🏻👌🏻

Day 3: Part 2 We then visited the world famous Belur and Halebedu temples. I simply have no words to describe the skill and command that the Hoysala architects had over stone 🤯🤯🤯 The details were just outstanding and you can spend days and days pouring into it 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Day 3: Part 1 We started bright & early and visited the Mullayangiri Peak, highest peak in Karnataka. The drive up, the weather, the views and the final hike up to the summit were just breathtaking. And of course, we had finish off the hike with some Maggi and Masala Corn 🌽😊

We started Day 2 with some amazing B’fast ➡️ lots of discussions about pitfalls in all the projects & how, as a team we can work around these. I shared concepts from the recent @LifeSciLearn leadership course & how we can implement these in the lab ➡️ an amazing dinner 🍛🍕🍝

We started Day 1 with some deep discussions about what the lab has achieved in 2024, areas to improve & major goals in 2025. Did this fun exercise where the crew had to explain other projects (they don't work on) & it was super fun 😊 Finished off with some awesome filer kaapi ☕

Our lab @ccmb_csir completed 3 years and we did a lab retreat to celebrate the wins, retrospect and recalibrate for the upcoming year! We headed to Chikkamagaluru, in the beautiful western ghats of Karnataka. It was wonderful to discuss science with my fav bunch😊🎉🎊 🧵⬇️

Happy to share our article on the bacterial pathogen Enterococcus faecalis, as part of the ‘Microbe of the Month’ series of @TrendsinMicrobiol. Thanks for this opportunity @sriram_varahan @ccmb_csir

From all of us, Wishing you all a Happy & Prosperous New Year 2024 🎉🎊 @dhrumishah99 @SudharsanM17 @MAdishree @AshwinJiju @Nikita_Rewatkar @RiyaBhatta0704

Cells are extremely dynamic when it comes to responding to changes in their environment. This is critical for their survival & ability colonise diverse niches Check out how our lab @ccmb_csir uses #fungi 🍄 to understand this broadly conserved phenomenon https://t.co/r26x7e6bQ7

Our lab had a science booth today @ccmb_csir open day !! Incredible energy overall. Super proud of the lab for enthusiastically explaining our science to thousands of curious minds & spreading the joy of metabolism & fungi 🍄 Special 👏🏻 @dhrumishah99 for the incredible agar art !

What are the advantages of morphological transitions exhibited by cells in response to nutrient limitation? Why is it important to understand this? Our lab @ccmb_csir uses #Fungi to address this https://t.co/2SSzo07Nsl In collaboration w/ @W0nderY0nder @CSIR_IND @SomdattaKarak
