@narendramodi Incredible achievement! Dr. Bhabha's dream is to be achieved soon. As a TIFR alumnus, proud to witness this milestone in my lifetime😅!

Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme. The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality. This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme. A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.

How do cells form distinct architectural patterns in nature? In our latest @pnas paper, we show that the convergence of metabolic, polarity, and cytoskeletal signaling pathways orchestrates fingerprint-like microridges on epithelial cell surfaces. 1/8🧵

@isro Congratulations everyone on SPADEX team! A milestone achievement. 👏👏

ISRO successfully completed docking of two SPADEX satellites (SDX-01 & SDX-02) in the early hours of 16 January, 2025. #SPADEX #ISRO

@SnehaHegde21 @WormlockHolmes Congratulations, Dr. Sneha Hegde!🎊

Thank you! @WormlockHolmes and everyone who contributed in this journey! #thesisdefended

@NobelPrize This is incredible. Congratulations to the Nobel Laureates in chemistry this year!! Accurate protein structure prediction has accelerated research in every field. Well-deserved!

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Chemistry with one half to David Baker “for computational protein design” and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper “for protein structure prediction.”

Amazing experience attending the #IZFC2024 at Kyoto. Exciting science happening around the world. I greatly enjoyed discussing my work over a poster. Thanks @InfoIzfs for making this happen. Also a big shoutout to @Co_Biologists @DMM_Journal for supporting my travel.

@sue9a @agtctalks @Editage It was a pleasure to host you and the @Editage team and facilitate these engaging interactions with scholars. We hope to arrange such meaningful events more in the future!🌟 @agtctalks @Cactusglobal

Yesterday, I got to do what I love most: interact with scholars and talk about academic writing. Thanks to @agtctalks and @Editage for organizing this workshop at TIFR, Mumbai :) It's always a delight and honor to visit hallowed halls of academia.
