Hey Mayim, let me tell you about how I understood what was going on as a child. No one explained it to me. No one read stories to me. 1. I was tear-gassed at school when I was 6 years old(the whole school). 2. My first classmate was killed when I was 8. 3. My neighbor was

The peaceful Kaveri, a day off work, and some crazy wildlife biologists! Such an honour working with all of you Dr. Arjun Srivathsa 🐾 Abhinav Tyagi Divyashree Rana B. V. Aditi Prasad 🌱 B.R. Ansil Vinay Sagar and many others! National Centre for Biological Sciences Jungle Lodges

I am very excited to share that I have accepted a faculty position IISc Bangalore! The group will study survival and extinction in small populations, and promote genomic studies of native wildlife by building capacity and developing tools. #Research #Genomics #Wildlife

Happy to share my paper in collaboration with the amazing WildCRU, Oxford folks! 🐾🇬🇧 Great to see our joint efforts from last summer come to fruition :) Thanks for this amazing opportunity!

Symposia on Molecular Ecology: Advent, Advances, and Avenues begins with Sampurna Roychoudhury's talk on population genetics of tigers of Ranthambore! #iwec24

Excited to be speaking this afternoon at #IWEC24 today with Vinay Sagar and others in the connectivity and conflict symposium organised by Divya Vasudev and Varun R Goswami 🐘 ! National Centre for Biological Sciences

It was great fun presenting *Feliplex* 🐈🐾🧬 (multiplex marker panel for Felidae), a multispecies tool for genetic monitoring of cats, at #iwec2024 ...1/3

Last but not the least, kudos to all my colleagues who attended and presented at #iwec2024! National Centre for Biological Sciences

🧬#eDNA people, please help me spread the word: we have set up the #MAnES course at Universität Innsbruck @[email protected] for people who want to get into #eDNA and #MolecularTrophicInteractions covering #sampling #qPCR #metabarcoding #bioinformatics application deadline: 30th June!

Had a great time at Indian Wildlife Ecology Conference 2024 (IWEC`24) talking about my work on pedigree reconstruction of wild tigers and attending many exciting talks and posters about Indian wildlife! #iwec2024 #ncbs

This sighting was such a privilege, truly thrilling!

Happy to be attending #SMBE2024 in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and excited to present a poster about our work on pedigree reconstruction of a wild tiger population ! Check out poster number 151 on Day 3 for more on inbreeding, mating patterns and non-invasive genomics. Uma Ramakrishnan

Excited to join AniMove 2024 at Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior. Two intense, fun weeks learning about animal movement data analysis and making new friends. Many thanks to Nirma Limited and SERB for their sponsorship! #wildlifetracking #AniMove2024

The past is fascinating! DNA from the past takes us back in time. What were tigers like? How connected were populations? What have we lost? We have sequenced genomic DNA from historical tigers in India. Exciting news on global tiger day! Stay tuned for more.

In light of JK Rowling’s anger at Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, who was born female, I’ve attached a screenshot of all of the tweets the esteemed protector of women has written about convicted child rapist Steven van de Velde being allowed to compete at the Olympics

Pleased to announce that my lab at UC Riverside has been awarded an NIH/NIGMS MIRA. This grant will fund our research on the evolution and genetics of recombination rate variation. We are also now recruiting at multiple levels, starting with postdocs (see QT below!).

I have a fully funded postdoc position open in my lab. The postdoc will get to work on a whole genome sequence based population genetics project focused on several Greenlandic land mammals. For details see tinyurl.com/2zae8zym. Application deadline is September 27. Please RT.
