🌱Inspiring future scientists! Visitors from the College of Agriculture, Vellayani, explored #NIPGR—engaging in lively discussions, an insightful lecture by Dr. @hasthiram, and an overview of the institute & research facilities by @ratnesh_thakur. #scicomm #Scienceoutreach

OrthoFinder has been cited more than 10,000 times 🤯. Don’t think @David__Emms or I ever dreamed it would be so useful to so many people. Looking forward to sharing the latest updates soon!

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT📣: I haven’t been this excited to be part of something new in 15 years… Thrilled to reveal the passion project I’ve been working on for the past year and a half!🙀🥳 It started from my frustration with the depressing effect that the current publishing system has

Finally, someone has solved a real problem with AI! No more having to take a paper in the format for a journal that rejected you, and reformat it for a new journal. Well done!! https://t.co/J5HekY1Pc0

Holy shit...Stanford just built a system that converts research papers into working AI agents. It’s called Paper2Agent, and it literally: • Recreates the method in the paper • Applies it to your own dataset • Answers questions like the author This changes how we do science

A short-and-sweet guide to developing research questions published in @Nature. Lots of good advice here 👍

Hearty congratulations Rhitoban and team! A proud moment for @DBS_IISERM @IiserMohali

I am moving to Zoho — our own Swadeshi platform for documents, spreadsheets & presentations. 🇮🇳 I urge all to join PM Shri @narendramodi Ji’s call for Swadeshi by adopting indigenous products & services.

Academic scientists complain often about the hardship of their chosen career, but in reality research in academia is among the best jobs in the universe. I am at the end of my career, and here are my reasons why I would do it again any day:
