EMBL-EBI “Biologists would sooner share a toothbrush than a gene name” Michael Asburner- Cold Spring Harbor Biology of Genomes meeting RIP Michael.

A friend #shared this with me today. How hard is it to understand tht #researchers need #regular #fellowship. If it's so difficult to release funds, jst stop Phd Programs! Wonder about mental health of phds in India DSTIndia Ajay Sood chandra Srivari Academic Chatter™ PhDs of India

Ever heard about a phenomenon called as #Elephant burials ! Few have heard but rarely document it from India. Here we publish first of its kid study from #India of Asian elephant burials with multiple real documentation in ‘Journal of Threatened Taxa’ threatenedtaxa.org/index.php/JoTT…

"Elephant Calf Burials", a less-known & less-studied animal behaviour (peri/post-mortem)is the focal point of this open access article coauthored by Parveen Kaswan, IFS and Akashdeep Roy (pursuing PhD with me). The article is also special due to this collaborative probe in the field.

Once again proving that AI stands for Anonymous Indians.

How #chromosomes move and organize is still an open challenge. New work shows that adding temporally persistent noise into an polymer model can reproduce real chromosome behaviors, including enhanced #mobility and compaction. Read the paper: go.aps.org/3yb9geY

A new method of detecting criticality from time-series data outperforms conventional metrics in the presence of variable noise levels for both simulated systems and real neural recordings. Read go.aps.org/3WBjcXf #PRXjustpublished #PRXopenaccess #PRXComplexSystems

I have posted this photo before. But due to some trigger yesterday I thought I will post it again with some thoughts. The first reaction I get in my circle is of incredulity. It is hard to imagine, let alone actually see a woman in complete traditional Marwari garb with 1/-

Zero-shot forecasting of chaotic systems. Yuanzhao Zhang 章元肇 and my new preprint shows that if you give a pre-trained ML model a bunch of observations of chaos, the model spontaneously produces good predictions---even without having been trained on the system arxiv.org/abs/2409.15771

Breakthrough in Markov-chain Monte Carlo method: Scientists found a solvable non-reversible many-particle model, the “lifted” TASEP. It relaxes faster than the Metropolis algorithm, paving the way for more efficient simulations in non-equilibrium systems. go.aps.org/3YFMhBK

IIIT-Delhi has raised its Ph.D. fellowship from Rs 37,000 to RS 60,000 per month, making it the highest in India. This move aims to attract top research talent and provide scholars with financial stability, surpassing UGC and DST standards. timesnownews.com/education/iiit…

To benefit the wider research community, we’ve also open-sourced this model with HHMI | Janelia. Here’s the code ↓ github.com/TuragaLab/flyb…
