Our work is out in @NatureComms. Read the paper if you want a quantitative description of chromatin polymer or plan to simulate chromatin. We answer some fundamental questions. Details below. @sangramjkadam @KiranKumari_ @vinoth46m @DuttaShuvadip @mithunmittir (1/10)

On the Himalayas (Sissu, Himachal Pradesh) ⁦@incredibleindia⁩

I carry one in my backpack always! Apart from quick to dry and light weight, it has so many uses. You can use it to climb a tree to pack and carry something! https://t.co/j0Zxn3R1V5 “Once you cross over to the other side, there’s no going back"

This was an amazing, crazy story from the 1970s @iitbombay campus! This and other similar stories about the life at IITB in the 1970s/80s, captured in this interesting book: https://t.co/uOX2NXJIUL

(1/8) Excited to see our collab w. @ViraatGoel Ed Banigan @ngaboreden James Jusuf, Leonid Mirny and Gerd Blobel out in @NatureSMB https://t.co/2Ri3nom8jt This was co-submitted with A Schooley and Job Dekker's preprint https://t.co/0Y6CmePM1Z which should also be online soon.

The deadline for common entrance exam (JGEEBILS) for I-PhD and PhD is on 26th October. Please apply! @NCBS_Bangalore @TIFRScience

The lab is in a celebratory mood as we head into the Diwali weekend🪔. Wishing everyone a bright, joyful, and prosperous Diwali!🌟. Kudos to Sai, Siddharth, Sriya, Surabhi and team for making this beautiful rangoli! @iitbombay @BsbeIitb

Wow! Innovation for Bengaluru’s home produced wet garbage

Did I hear it right? Lodha seems to have donated twenty-thousand-crore INR (~2 billion USD) for supporting research institutes in India. A new mathematical research institute started in Mumbai with Manjul Bhargava et al visiting? https://t.co/DpAaK75Fkk

Students and Post-docs, please register for this chromatin meeting. Registration deadline approaching fast! @ranjithpa @NCBS_Bangalore @DeepakNModi @mahipal_ganji @r_sabarinathan @grewal @grewalsh @IISERPune @mbhavana10 @kazu_maeshima @iam_Mridula

Please register for Asia Chromatin Meeting 2025, at IISER Pune, 9th-11th Oct. 2025 https://t.co/puxTueOzLI

An exciting chromatin meeting in Pune, in October. Do register. Last date soon.

Is euchromatin really “open”? 🧬Our new study @bioRxiv suggests otherwise. Using super-resolution imaging🔬　@shiori_iida @MasaAShimazoe reveals: Euchromatin forms condensed domains in live cells. Cohesin constrains them and prevents domain mixing. 🔗 https://t.co/2iISQjxjgh (1/3)

I was frustrated with my Mac giving very poor Spotlight search results recently! Then I learned this simple trick: force Spotlight to rebuild its index and it works! Follow this: https://t.co/VqaRFbW5Ym This might be useful for you.

Predicting statistics of gene translocation events: role of chromatin compaction and double-strand DNA break https://t.co/5vFnzikcy9 #biorxiv_biophys

Biological engineering is an aspirational term. Tinkering is often more apt. Mostly, we do not understand biological systems to engineer them in the same way we engineer cars and aircraft.

Bill Bryson's book 'The Body' starts with a fun thought experiment: How much would it cost to buy all the chemicals that make up an adult human body? Just go to a shop and buy the necessary amounts of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, phosphorus, etc.!

Spectacular performance by the Indian team at the International Mathematical Olympiad 2025 held at Sunshine Coast, Australia from Jul 10-21, winning 3 Gold, 2 Silver and 1 Bronze! Congratulations Team India you make the nation proud!! #IMO2025, #Matholympiad.

@biorxiv_genomic Excited to share our paper on the changes in 3D chromatin architecture across cell cycle stages in the pathogenic basidiomycete yeast, Cryptococcus neoformans. @ranjithpa @KaustuvSanyal @DimpleNotani @DuttaShuvadip @rakeshnetha_v

Thrilled to share that I’ve joined @TIFRH_buzz as an Assistant Professor! Deeply grateful to my mentors (esp @grewalsh and KN Balaji), colleagues, friends, family & EVERYONE who made this possible. Excited to explore Epigenetics & the 3D Genome with the brilliant minds in India!

Introducing AlphaGenome: an AI model to help scientists better understand our DNA – the instruction manual for life 🧬 Researchers can now quickly predict what impact genetic changes could have - helping to generate new hypotheses and drive biological discoveries. ↓
