India has scripted history. Biochemistry, the crème de la crème of the sciences, whose discoveries are adorned with 56 Nobel Prizes, whose portals are illuminated by Indian giants like Khorana and Subbarow, has today officially welcomed a student who scored minus 8 out of 800.

This year’s chemistry laureate Omar Yaghi was born in Amman, Jordan, in 1965 to parents who were refugees from Palestine. When we spoke to him he shared his story: “I grew up in a very humble home, we were a dozen of us in one room, sharing it with the cattle that we used to raise. I was born in a family of refugees, and my parents could barely read or write. My father finished sixth grade and my mother couldn’t read or write. It’s quite a journey. Science allows you to do it. Science is the greatest equalising force in the world. Smart people, talented people, skilled people exist everywhere. That’s why we really should focus on unleashing their potential through providing them with opportunity.” Today Yaghi shared the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry with Susumu Kitagawa and Richard Robson for their work developing metal–organic frameworks.

The next one is @usbumer1 's work on the study of foraging behaviour in worms. He found that the neuropeptide FLP-15 was required for local and global search beaviours. Umer was helped by Siju, Sharanya and Namra. 4/n biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
