Immensely happy to share our recent work "Transcription factor binding process is the primary driver of noise in gene expression" published in PLoS Genetics journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/a… by @lavisha_parab and Sampriti Pal. 1/2

Someone, Somewhere is the happiest one tonight. #Chandrayaan3

New preprint from the lab showing how transcriptional bursts are translated into protein expression noise. Tremendous efforts from two graduate students - Sampriti and Upasana. Ribosome demand links transcriptional bursts to protein expression noise biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We're finally here at #Sakleshpur for our next #SimonsSymposium on "#Stochasticity & #Plasticity in #LivingSystems" at the picturesque Rosetta By Ferns! 🌳 After an afternoon of settling in and soaking up the greenery around us, we are finally ready to kickstart #SPLS2023! 🦠

Day 3 of #SPLS2023 began with 2 wonderful talks by: Riddhiman Dhar - Transcriptional & translational regulation of gene expression noise James Locke - Mechanisms for functional noise in gene regulation Followed by an interactive poster session! #Stocasticity #Plasticity

Riddhiman Dhar National Centre for Biological Sciences Simons Foundation Bangalore Life Science Cluster (BLiSC) Cambridge University Sainsbury Laboratory Cambridge University (SLCU) For the second half of the day, we organised a half-day trip to Belur and Halebeedu – ancient Hoysala temples, architectural marvels, and UNESCO World Heritage Sites! It was a fascinating afternoon filled with stories, history and aesthetics! ✨

#SPLS2023 in short: harmony within heterogeneity. So much positive vibe all over! Shared noisy science ideas & informal chalk 'n talks & laughter here, talked about random ideas & awesome food & world history & personal choices over tea. Huge thanks to the #SPLS2023 organizers!

In 1995, a group of scientists conducted a study on the effects of various drugs on spiders, specifically focusing on the way they weave their webs. This research aimed to explore the impact of psychoactive substances on the behavior and motor skills of these arachnids The

You've heard of dark matter. You've heard of dark energy. But have you heard of the dark genome? 99% of our genome doesn't code for proteins. So what does it do and how can we use it to understand genetic diseases? Listen to the whole story: geneticsunzipped.com/blog/2023/14/1…

Excited! 😃. Thanks to my supervisor, Riddhiman Dhar.

Kolkata. Asansol. Bolpur. West Bengal has erupted in anger tonight. Make this big, my beloved state. Very, very big. #JusticeForMoumita

It took me SEVEN years to figure out that you can save a ggplot as a vectorized .svg file ggsave("file.svg"). The svg file can be opened on powerpoint and it will be completely vectorized, even text are still recognized as text boxes! No more recreating plots on illustrator!!!!!

#LIGHT_JUSTICE !! Doctors of #Westbengal are Going to start Human Chain Protest !! Kindly Stand for her 👫🧑🏼‍🤝‍🧑🏼🧑🏼‍🤝‍🧑🏼👫👭 Date- 4th Sept Time -9-10 pm #JusticeForAbhaya #MedTwitter

3-45 AM. Today. Phears Lane. Kolkata. The doctors and police rise for our national anthem. Memory created 🫶 #JusticeForRGKar

🎇🎄Some holiday reading: Overdue TWEETORIAL on the latest preprint from our lab. 🎇🎄 In this work, superstar postdoc Xinhe Xue combined 2 kinds of pooled CRISPR screens to pinpoint noncoding regulatory elements and the transcription factors that activate these elements.

Great opportunity!
