Non-motile microbes are not prisoners of diffusive transport. Just their metabolic activity can be sufficient to stir up the ambient fluid and cause explosive long-range dispersal -- a "metabolic firework". Our latest work -- arxiv.org/abs/2512.16288

As a third edition of AbiOTIC (Astrobiology & Origins of Life Talks, Interactions, Conversation) series, this Friday, we will be hosting an interactive discussion session with Sudha Rajamani (@COoLLabSR), Shashi Thutupalli (@stpalli), and Siddharth Pandey (@siddharthpandey).

A new paper on an issue that has been discussed for more than a century -- how can fundamental biophysical constraints on nutrient transport be overcome to solve one of the most significant challenges associated with the evolution of multicellularity? science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

This tiny device can shrink dangerous blood clots. Researchers at Stanford have developed a new technology that is more than twice as effective as current techniques. It’s called the ‘milli-spinner’ and it was invented by chance.

We’re celebrating the newest graduate from my lab — Dr. Charuhansini Tvishamayi @charuhansini! Those of you in Bangalore, free next Sunday and interested, please come, it will be a pleasure! Poster courtesy: members of the lab.

@NatureComms The latest in the series from Manoj's (@Alpha_Manoj) penchant for swimming microdroplets - he takes advantage of phase transitions in the droplet phase to switch + tune the microdroplet self-propulsion activity with temperature. Just out in @softmatter pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

@Rakshits2016 Congratulations to the team!

We show how force- filters in hearing become fatigue to repetitive loud sound!!!Kudos to the team where the first 3 primary authors are from BSMS batch.

SALab is looking for a self-funded PhD student! Want to delve into #protocells, #LLPS, single-molecule dynamics, #FCS or Life's Origins? Are you excited about functional RNAs? Then, please apply for our mid-term PhD intake @TSB_Ashoka @AshokaUniv Only for JRF-qualified students!

What did you get done this week? Elon Musk: hold my beer

BREAKING NEWS The 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.

@MandalRituparno @RRI_Bangalore Sure.

@Alpha_Manoj @RRI_Bangalore Thanks @Alpha_Manoj. Will see you around.

I am very excited to start as a faculty member at the Soft Condensed Matter Group at @RRI_Bangalore. We will be working on active matter, glasses, non-eq self-assembly, application of AI in soft matter and in many other interesting areas.

@Indubala07 @NatureChemistry @aprahamian @lippertlab Congratulations for the publication! Wishing for the many more.

Very happy to share our work in @NatureChemistry! Had a great time working on this project in an amaZing @aprahamian group and with wonderful collaborators in @lippertlab. Check out this work, specially who loves #Chirality, #Photoswitches, #Liquidcrystals, #structuralcolors🤗

If you are a Nobel Prize-enthusiastic - this article will help you to increase your chances of winning the prize🙂 Link: 👉 nature.com/immersive/d415…

@A_Amunts @Orangeroad2017 This is a very cool stuff!

@Ahanjit Sure, I will definitely visit the campus and your lab whenever possible.

@Alpha_Manoj Thank you Manoj! Do visit the campus when you get a chance.

I'm excited to announce that I've joined the Department of Chemistry, Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Bhopal as Assistant Professor. Sincere thanks to my advisors, mentors, teachers, and every well wishers for leading me to this wonderful opportunity! #newPI
