Last Day to submit your ideas for the Longevity Ideathon! 🚨 Don’t miss this opportunity to make an impact in #agingscience! 👉Apply Now: longevity.iisc.ac.in/eir ⏳ Applications close at midnight. Rainmatter by Zerodha Foundation for Science, Innovation & Development

ResearchHub Foundation Resonates with recent discussions at @ZuGramaIndia - We need to stop with 'TradSci vs DeSci' debate. Only when the two merge, Science will evolve for good!

Scientists don't have time to ask themselves hard questions! The brain #microplastic paper is a joke: Fat makes false positive PE - see missing high m/z ions in PyGCMS. The brain has ~60% fat, and liver has ~5%, so that is why ~10x more "plastics" there. doi.org/10.1038/s41591…

We are excited to announce this year’s Open Day! 🎉 Visit our campus on March 1st between 9 am to 5 pm. Explore the exciting research demos, displays, exhibits and experiments! Use the hashtag #IIScOpenDay2025 to share what you see! Details: openday.iisc.ac.in/index.php

I've realized the term 'Natural Evolution' is heavily misused and places humans outside nature's framework. If you think about it, Evolution & Natural Selection resulted in organisms capable of understanding its processes and modifying them. Intelligence as an evolutionary tool.

The clock is ticking! In just 10 days, we come together to explore the future of healthy aging, longevity science, and cutting-edge innovations. 📅 March 10-12, 2025 📍IISc, Bengaluru Register now - longevity.iisc.ac.in/rise #10DaysToRISE #HealthyAging #AgingScience #RISE2025

The countdown is on! In just 2 days, we’ll bring together leading experts, researchers, and innovators to explore the future of healthy aging, data sciences, clinical research, and public health. #HealthyAging #AgingScience #RISE2025 #LongevityIndia #longevity

Deepak Saini, Convenor at Longevity India, IISc Bangalore, discussed the genesis of the Longevity India Initiative, the impact of oxidised cholesterol, targeting senescent cells, healthy aging, and recent scientific advancements. #HealthyAging #AgingScience #RISE2025

Researchers from BE, IISc have developed a biocompatible small molecule that can help visualise superficial tumours using Photoacoustic Tomography. The approach can be less expensive than traditional PET or MRI. Read more: iisc.ac.in/events/novel-p… #IIScresearch Sanhita Sinharay

Research thrives on collaboration. The best ideas spark not only under fluorescent lab lights, but under open skies too. Our department took a short break to connect beyond projects and publications. Stronger bonds. Fresh energy. One team. 📸 IISc Bangalore

Just wrapped an incredible workshop with VizChitra mapping trees in Indiranagar using OpenStreetMap yest! 🌳🗺️ ~20 of us marked 150+ trees in our neighbourhood in under an hour. Mind-blowing what even a single determined person can do together with OSD today! Learnt the

iisc campus is like cubbon park but with nerds

Micro-Mapping Nature in Bengaluru! 🌳 We showed up last Sunday to map the hidden life of trees, and turn it into open data. VizChitra’s Bengaluru chapter hosted a walk through the leafy arteries of Indiranagar to explore and observe urban nature with intention.

Asked Claude for a brief history of Rock and it spun up this cool artifact. claude.ai/public/artifac…

True. It’s very easy nowadays to just ask LLMs to draft everything and you lose your individual writing voice. I think a conscious decision needs to be made to write on your own. Although in other aspects, it’s been super-useful such as tool development and learning concepts.

Every AI CEO has promised to cure disease. They are LYING. Not because the AI is bad. Because the data doesn’t exist. The entire industry trains models on snapshots of dead cells in mice. That’s why 90% of drugs fail in humans. The FDA just told pharma to replace animal

Claude is literally teaching me maths right now and i actually understand it?? like it just showed me WHY a positive medical test doesn't mean you're sick (Bayes theorem) with a live interactive dot grid and i could drag sliders to see it change in real time normal
