Rohit Kumar presented a poster at the EMBO | EMBL Symposium: Microtubules: from atoms to complex systems, held at the EMBL ATC in Heidelberg, Germany. His attendance was generously supported by the DMM Conference Travel Grant from The Company of Biologists @Co_Biologists

I am delighted to share the exciting news of new publication from our lab doi.org/10.1007/s00018… . Congratulations to @Swarnendu_1997, Qi Gao, and Prof. Dr Elmar Schiebel for this remarkable publication.

Excited to share our latest paper in @JBiolChem! 🌟 @anandushma et al. identify FBXW7 as a critical regulator of centriole duplication, degrading the Plk4-phosphorylated STIL-SAS6 complex. Great effort by the whole team! 👏 jbc.org/article/S0021-…

@msvichu2007 @bio_iisertvm @tvmiiser Thanks @msvichu2007

@MannaLab1 @bio_iisertvm @tvmiiser Congratulations sir!!

🎉 We’re delighted that our PI, Prof. Tapas Manna (School of Biology), has been elected as a **Fellow of the Indian National Science Academy (INSA), New Delhi!** 👏 Big congratulations to Prof. Manna on this achievement — and of course we celebrated with cake! 🎂✨

@Bhagya_Lakshmi_ @bio_iisertvm @tvmiiser Thanks @Bhagya_Lakshmi_

@MannaLab1 @bio_iisertvm @tvmiiser Congratulations Sir!!

@MannaLab1 @Pradip_Pb21 @bio_iisertvm @tvmiiser Big congratulations to @MannaLab1 for this well deserved recognition.

Very excited to welcome and hear from the esteemed speakers in 'Microtubule Network' meeting at CDFD 🎉 🎉 with @GunjanM43894285 #microtubules #centromeres #centrosome #mitosis @DBT_CDFD @KaustuvSanyal @vmdraviam @Sachin_mitosis @almut_kelber @c_swadhin @MannaLab1 @PS_lab

Prof. Tapas K. Manna and PhD student Swarnendu Mukhopadhyay presented their research at the Indo-German Meeting on Cytoskeleton Biology in Health and Diseases held at IISc (June 3–5, 2025). Their talks highlighted new insights into centriole duplication and biogenesis. #MannaLab

Aneuploidy induction mechanisms via the CENP-E kinesin, a chromosome transporter, that is associated with cancer. CENP-E also reqd to maintain interpolar microtubules. Tapas Manna @tvmiiser in #M2T22025

Excited to share that @Swarnendu_1997 and @Delvinpauly won the Best Poster Prizes at the FS-Bio Symposium held at IISER Thiruvananthapuram from Feb 7-9!

Congratulations to the winners of the best poster prize: Delvin, Swarnendu, Hritik, Jeena, Special mention posters: Santosh, Tiyas, and Parnika. Best Flash Talks: Anandita and Kavitha.

Ushma Anand presented her research at ASCB EMBO Cell Bio 2024 (Dec 14-18, San Diego), supported by an EMBO travel grant. Her poster and teaser talk in the “Everything Microtubules & Cell Division” session highlighted FBXW7’s role in regulating STIL and centriole duplication.

Had an amazing time celebrating Onam in the lab yesterday! 🌸🌿 The vibrant Pookalam, delicious sadya, and great company made it unforgettable. #Onam2024 #LabCelebrations #FestiveVibes #CCD

It's the end of another academic year! 🥂 Cheers to @Bhagya_Lakshmi_, @LiasusanGeorge, @ShebaCheeran, and @msvichu2007 on graduating! 🎓 Your contributions to the lab was invaluable. Best wishes for your future endeavors! 🎉🌟

A huge congratulations to Dr. Bhagya Lakshmi @Bhagya_Lakshmi_ for successfully defending her PhD thesis! 🎉 It was great to have her amidst us doing cool science. Wishing her all the best as she steps into an exciting new chapter at @barisic_lab 🌟

👏🎉 Congratulations Dr Vishnu M Nair on successfully defending your thesis on the role of E3 ubiquitin ligase, FBXW7, in mitotic checkpoint regulation! It was a truly great Journey throughout. #TKMLab

1/4 kinetochores which in turn ensures optimum dynein mediated stripping of CENP-E thus leading to its stabilization at the aligned kinetochores.

Kudos to @Bhagya_Lakshmi_ , all the authors and thanks to collaborators @BenDavidLab, Dr. Raja Paul, Dr. Sarit Agasti for the work published in EMBO reports. The paper sheds light on the crucial role of CKAP5 in stabilizing CENPE at the kinetochore. embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…
