Our hard work of four years is put together in a manuscript now. We were trying to measure the viscoelastic response of single macromolecules. Well, the conclusions are not very encouraging. The dissipation is below current detection limits. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Kavli prize for NanoScince goes to electron microscopy. Precise instrumentation is the key to new science and discovering material and phenomena. This is being increasingly emphasized. youtu.be/E_DVSdjE-JY

Happy to share our story on biomechanics of somersaulting locomotion in Hydra. (jeb.biologists.org/content/early/…). Differential stiffness of body column helps in efficient transfer of energy during somersault.Suyash Naik Manu K Unni Shivprasad Patil IISER Pune Surendra Ghaskadbi @PrabakaranLab

Athale Lab: CyCelS 💉💉💉💉🚲🤿⛵ @ydnadydnad Sanjeev Galande Suyash Naik Manu K Unni Shivprasad Patil IISER Pune @PrabakaranLab Bonafide🤣? No idea. Usually about a cm when fully stretched is what is commonly described. I guess they can stretch a bit more when starving, read desperate to catch prey.

congratulations Sanjeev Galande, Shivprasad Patil & team. fantastic study, it reminds us why some of us do science- just for the pure joy of learning and solving problems. differential stiffness leading to priomoridal form of locomotion - all the physics, biology & math one can ask for.

we are showing conclusively that the dissipation is single protien molecules is below the detection limits of some of “state-of-the-art “ tools in this business which warrants a careful review of the current reports on such measurements. doi.org/10.1088/1361-6…

Single molecules of flexible polymers have rubber-like entropic elasticity characterised by its persistence length.We accurately measure it using a special AFM built in our own lab.
