Do reach out if you have any queries. I look forward to knowing more about your work and research interests

#WomenInSTEM @DBTIndia Championing Women-Led Science for a Viksit Bharat. Dr. Pallavi Kshetrapal, Ph.D., Associate Professor, @THSTIFaridabad, has made impactful contributions to maternal and child health, infectious disease research, and national biobanking. She led the establishment of a dedicated National Biobank for maternal and child health and infectious diseases — the first NABL-accredited and DBT-supported biobank to achieve ISO 20387:2018 certification. Her work on standardized biobanking protocols has strengthened research quality, enabled global collaborations, and supported large multi-site cohort studies. Her research has also advanced the understanding of placental inflammation, preterm birth, and metabolic and epigenetic signatures in pregnancy. Dr. Kshetrapal has contributed to major initiatives including GARBH-Ini, the Multi-Omics for Mothers and Infants Consortium, and DBT’s COVID-19 programs, supporting improved risk prediction and biomarker discovery for maternal and newborn health. #MaternalHealth #Biobanking #BiomedicalResearch #ViksitBharat @DrJitendraSingh @rajesh_gokhale @BricDbt @NABI_India @bric_ils @NIPGRsocial @NImmunology @HydNiab @BRIC_CDFD @DBT_NCCS_Pune @ICGEB @DBT_inStem @DBT_NBRC @RGCB_Trivandrum @THSTIFaridabad @ICGEBNewDelhi @unescorcb @BIRAC_2012 @ICMRDELHI @MoHFW_INDIA @MinistryWCD @IndiaDST @moesgoi @ICMRDELHI @PrinSciAdvOff

@cbmnimhans #jobvacancy Project aims to understand the effect of #neuroinflammation on #neurodevelopment using patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells across #Autism, #schizophrenia & #bipolardisorders. Candidates with demonstrable experience do apply.

2yr project funded by @MQmentalhealth, will be conducted in collaboration with Prof Deepak Srivastava, Kings College London. Walk in interview on 24th March 2026. Please

I serendipitously found myself speaking about autism families at the Addiction conference #CAMCON at NIMHANS, thanks to my dearest friend @Bhagyal69760433, her support and encouragement was instrumental. We discussed how parental substance use increases autism severity.

Our patient public engagement has been an eye opener! It provided a glimpse of the real world challenges & struggles. Huge admiration for the attendees for sharing experiences, voicing out their views and providing us a new direction to pursue. We are truly inspired!

@md2016salam Hello, Did you get any update on CSIR ASPIRE Life Science results?

@HRDG_CSIR @DrJitendraSingh @DrNKalaiselvi @CSIR_IND @GVRayasam @PIB_India @IndiaBioscience @CSIR_NIScPR @NITIAayog @ccmb_csir @IGIBSocial @csiriict @clriindia @csir_cimap @PrinSciAdvGoI @DDNewslive @HRDG_CSIR @DrJitendraSingh The results of CSIR ASPIRE scheme for Life Sciences is pending. Kindly look into the matter.

A Special Call for Research Grants for Women Scientists (ASPIRE) is now open for applications. Hon’ble Minister for S&T @DrJitendraSingh had launched the portal in presence of @DrNKalaiselvi DG @CSIR_IND on occasion of Women’s day. @GVRayasam @PIB_India @IndiaBioscience

We have an opening for project associate I. If you have a masters degree and are interested in neuroscience, we have some cool projects you can work on. Please spread the word. 15th Feb is the last date to apply. @VoicesofIndAcad iitdh.ac.in/sites/default/…
