Hi @ltmhyd ! Love the service you provide to Hyderabad! This is from the 3rd station from the origin of the blue line, packed end to end. Maybe add additional coaches at peak commuters hours?

My second piece in The Hindu ( @the_hindu) is up online today. Here is a link (thehindu.com/sci-tech/scienc…). The piece is meant to convey that the possibilities for creating current and new products, cells, and organisms through synthetic biology are growing rapidly. We need to imagine what this future direction will be like, and an incremental linear extrapolation from the present will not capture this future.

Passing thought after lots of talk about molecular evolution: is it enough to document variation even up to function, without positing a plausible selection pressure? It’s hard, constrained by information and imagination, but likely a worthwhile endeavor.

The audience and the Sonal’s talk were ‘inseparable’ @SonalNJaiswal14 #indrc2025

Isn’t this a gorgeous cover?
Thrilled to see our work on how Aurora A shapes spindle-pole material properties featured on The EMBO J cover!
Huge thanks to the @embojournal team, and to @AdhikaryKuheli & @madhubala98 for crafting these stunning images.

That was such a nice talk @Amanjsingh1996 ! Great new insights on stress granules and the RNA in/outside them! @MIRM_blr #emboccmb25

Ever wondered how injuries in tissues such as skeletal muscles are healed? Did you know that dormant stem cells in adults help repair and regenerate these damaged tissues?
The Indian Society of Cell Biology, in association with Cactus, invites you to a free webinar on “Quiescent muscle cells are active communicators” led by Prof. Jyotsna Dhawan. Join us as we explore how signals from damaged cells activate the quiescent stem cells and discover how this communication effects the maintenance of tissues.
Book your seat now: airmeet.com/e/49c74a60-7811-…
💸 Registration: FREE for all participants
Topic: Quiescent muscle cells are active communicators
Speaker: Dr Jyotsna Dhawan, CCMB Hyderabad
Moderator: Dr Debdeep Dutta, IIT Kanpur
Date: November 15, 2025
Time: 5:30 PM IST
Language: English
Duration: 1 hour
What You Will Learn:
✅The importance of communication between cells to build and maintain skeletal tissues.
✅How complex signals are released in the form of tiny extracellular vesicles called exosomes.
✅How differentiated cells choose from the large number of exosomes released by dormant cells.
✅What our understanding of these quiescent muscle cells means for tissue maintenance.
Dr. Jyotsna Dhawan | Center for Cellular and Molecular Biology
Dr. Jyotsna Dhawan is an Emeritus Scientist at the Center for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB), Hyderabad, where she has been a key researcher since 1996. Her work focuses on the cell biology of quiescence and skeletal muscle regeneration. She earned her Ph.D. in Biochemistry and Cell Biology from Boston University School of Medicine and completed her postdoctoral research at Stanford University. With a distinguished career in molecular and cellular biology, she continues to contribute to advancing understanding of muscle stem cell biology.
REGISTER TODAY! We look forward to welcoming you to this enriching session!

While reading for a piece I am writing for @shaastra on the evolution of Cetacea (whales, dolphins, porpoises, etc), I came across the work of A. Ranga Rao, a geologist at the Oil and Natural Gas Commission ( ONGC). I had heard of the work, but not of Ranga Rao. The discoveries of the fossils that led to an understanding of the origins of whales have interesting connections to Pakistan and India (and also Indira Gandhi)
