Gauraw Kumar has joined as a faculty at NFSU, Guwahati NFSU ; he recently completed his PhD from our lab ITMERG looking at the intrinsic relationship between human gut microbiome & type 2 diabetes. Congratulations Gauraw and all the best with next phase of your career.

Honored to present my research work AOGS 2025. Thank you ITMERG Punyasloke Bhadury Anwesha Ghosh

Congratulations Nirupama Saini Nirupama Saini for receiving travel grant from British Ecological Society to present PhD work on inter-linkages between microplastics, carbon cycling & emergence of antimicrobial resistance in mangroves at #AOGS2025 in Singapore ITMERG AOGS Sundarbans Biological Observatory Time Series

Our team members led by Rajkumari Nikita are back in Deepor Beel, a Ramsar wetland, to continue with the monthly ecological monitoring of Deepor Beel Ecological Time Series stations DeeporBeelTimeSeries ITMERG Convention on Wetlands

We report a co-dominance of cyanobacteria diatom driven algal bloom in the River Ganga; episodic inputs of nitrogen shaped the bloom IOP Environment IOP Publishing Punyasloke Bhadury

Are you studying the health of fish? Do you want to look at the effects of emerging contaminants such as microplastics on fish and consequences for higher trophic levels? Then join us and learn in this workshop which we are organizing soon in our campus ITMERG

Thank you Ocean Census for supporting 19IMCO which will enable participants from Global South to present their work in Kolkata and also contribute their knowledge in Winter Meioschool ITMERG
