Join Rachel Thomas and me in our Hyderabad Lit Fest discussion on Sunday. We will talk about how she went on to become India's first woman skydiver when the sport was limited to men in the military forces. This will be a conversation of what it takes to make a field more accessible.

Our Gene-Health Connect has finished its continuous run of about 1.5 years. That marks some time for me to reflect on it. If you are an educator who wants to reach out to young people on genes and genetic diseases, I hope this will help you too: edexlive.com/opinion/2025/F… CSIR, India
Young changemakers like Khushi Goel are proving that tackling #AMR isn’t just for doctors or scientists-it’s for all of us! On National Science Day, Khushi shared her journey with SaS at TERI School of Advanced Studies, highlighting how #youth-led action is key in raising #awareness and action.
On #GlobalHealthDay, vaccines for long-standing diseases like TB have to be part of the discussion. Is it the lack of scientific understanding of the disease or the funds+will for it that is holding us back? Somdatta Karak writes: nopr.niscpr.res.in/handle/1234567… CSIR, India CSIR-NIScPR
As people around me discuss wars, to me it's a reminder that wars-->infections, and many of which will be difficult to treat due to #AMR. Our fight against AMR requires us all to do our bit, and that's what I write for The India Forum: theindiaforum.in/health/safegua…
