Today, I complete 15 years as a faculty member at #IISERPune. I have attempted to put together a list (based on my blogs) of some lessons that I have learnt so far. A disclaimer to note is that this list is by no means a comprehensive one, but a text of self-reflection from my

We often assume that an organism carries the same genome within all of its cells. But in many cases — from nematodes to hagfish, lampreys to songbirds — the truth is far messier. At least 100 species are known to do something called “programmed DNA elimination,” in which large

Rubisco is (arguably) the most abundant protein on Earth. (LPP surely comes close, right?) It’s an enzyme that fixes CO₂ into sugars during photosynthesis. Unfortunately, as most people learn in school, Rubisco is inefficient. Sometimes it confuses O₂ for CO₂ and wastes

Meloidogyne enterolobii, a hypervirulent nematode in direct-seeded rice (DSR) agroecosystems of India. Its short life cycle and adaptive reproductive biology suits well for aerobic rice. MG1 gene of wild rice Oryza nivara exhibited tolerance. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

James Dewey Watson – who won the Nobel Prize for his role in divining the structure of DNA; was instrumental in initiating and propelling the Human Genome Project; and who became notorious for his history of racist and sexist comments – has died at 97. go.nature.com/4hP5lGP

When I was a graduate student at Caltech, I found one of the first left-handed forms of DNA (Nature 1980). Dozens of "experts" told me it was "impossible". Some with Nobel Prizes. They did everything they could to delay such an important discovery! 🤡 Even Francis Crick. Since
