Our paper just went live on @NatureAging. Peroxisomes are understudied & regarded as organelles with functions ancillary to those of the mitochondria. We shift this paradigm by demonstrating how peroxisomes actively guide organelles cascades & maintain them to drive healthy aging

A few updates: I’m finishing my postdoc up at Harvard Chan My lab will be opening this fall at @tufts at @HNRCA_Tufts and we will continue investigating cell-intrinsic and inter-tissue metabolic flexibility and its role in aging Also, our R00 was funded so we will be hiring

Glad to announce the 6th Annual conference of @india_evolution to be hosted at @IISER_BERHAMPUR later this year. Abstract submission starts today. More details to follow. Spread the word #iiseb6 #EvolutionIndia

Excited to share New paper from the lab. @suv_halder’s work on spontaneous dispersal tendency of fruit flies shown to depend on nutritional and density context in a sex specific manner. nsojournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/oi…. Thanks @IISER_BERHAMPUR for support.

@StefanLupold @NatureEcoEvo @Zeeshthefish Congratulations @Zeeshthefish !!

Humbled and proud to be part of this fantastic collaboration leading to this study in @NatureEcoEvo on the genomics underlying ornament-preference coevolution. Kudos to @Zeeshthefish for leading this massive effort and thanks to all collaborators. doi.org/10.1038/s41559…

🎉 🥳

New paper from the lab. Most excited because this is the first non-Drosophila paper from our group. Kudos to @Ra_Sa_Pa_ and all other authors. Thanks @IISER_BERHAMPUR for supporting a new venture. Had a wonderful experience publishing in Ethology. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/et…

@ElianodS It was an amazing talk!!

@vinaybulusu Looks super fun sir!!

@nbodhi84 @IISER_BERHAMPUR @NGPrasadevo Aah!! I see

@PurbashaDG @IISER_BERHAMPUR @NGPrasadevo So did Subhasish

A wonderful four days of visit by Prof. NG Prasad at @IISER_BERHAMPUR. From Quantitative Genetics to Sexual selection and conflict, and finally a general discussion on science and research. Thanks a lot for visiting us @NGPrasadevo.

Very excited to share the first preprint of the Beetle work in the lab by @Ra_Sa_Pa. Very interesting mating behaviour in Parthenium beetle. Rabi looks at extraordinary long mating, copulatory courtship, and repeated short compilations - biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

@SilviaCat_telan @dariovalenzano_ Great findings @SilviaCat_telan !!!

Here @dariovalenzano_ and I tested if a species showing rapid somatic aging undergoes negligible reproductive aging by using one of the shortest-lived vertebrates, the turquoise killifish, Nothobranchius furzeri 🐟⏳ (1/4)

@sudiptatung @akhila1498 @DrosAlien @soumenkhan123 @AshokaUniv @TSB_Ashoka @Ecol_Evol Congratulations!!!!

Thrilled to announce our lab's first paper, now accepted in Ecology & Evolution! It's a debut for @akhila1498, @DrosAlien, Nishant, and Chand, and our first collaboration with @soumenkhan123. Congratulations to the team! 🎉 #IGEL @AshokaUniv @TSB_Ashoka @Ecol_Evol #Drosophila

Congratulations @gio_SiGa !!! ✨🍾🎇

With two of the founding members graduating, the Behaviour & Evolution lab at @IISER_BERHAMPUR is looking for new students. Please share with aspiring Ethology / Evolution students.

The way she needed a dipping sauce..can’t help but say mother

The claim that Evolution is conceptually difficult and hence should be taught after 10th std. is bizarre. If anything Evolution is a fundamental concept that should be taught to everyone regardless of subject of specialisation. Only way to do that… teach the young students
