Do you love tardigrades? Then, you'll love this episode of the Joyful Microbe podcast with tardigrade researcher Dr. Sandeep Eswarappa (Eswarappa Lab IISc) #tardigrades #waterbears joyfulmicrobe.com/tardigrades-sa…

#NewPaperAlert Initially believed to be cells merely filled with pre-made proteins, human erythrocytes are actually capable of making their own proteins during their lifetime. Learn more in our latest @MBoCjournal bit.ly/RBCMBoC Sangeetha Devi Kumar The Biochemical Society IISc Bangalore

It is generally believed that mature red blood cells, lacking a nucleus, can not ultimately synthesize proteins. However, Kumar et al. has demonstrated that these cells do in fact undergo low levels of translational activity pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35976696/

The relationship between deadlines and working experiments is a tricky thing and needs further study #cartoon #academia #science

Can red blood cells make their own proteins? New study from Eswarappa Lab IISc shows that translation (a key step in protein synthesis), thought to be absent so far, also happens in these cells. iisc.ac.in/protein-synthe… #IIScresearch

So many calls about China, about what that means for India, about XBB, about 3rd waves, about new mandates, about travel bans, about vaccine boosters- thought best to get views out to summarise the current situation. Long thread, be warned 🙂 1/n

How cool is it that you have a tree like this one that was thought to be extinct on your campus IISc Bangalore!!😱

In our latest bioRxiv we described how the CRISPR-dCas13 system can be used to induce stop codon readthrough of mRNAs, selectively Lekha E M Anumeha Singh Debaleena Kar The Biochemical Society IISc Bangalore Biological Sci, IISc Voices of Indian Academia #AcademicTwitter #CRISPR

(1/4) Dear Tata Group pls, monitor the service provided by My Voltas at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore (a brainchild of J N Tata). My Voltas has an AMC with IISc to maintain some units of central AC.

Today, IISc turns 114! 27 May 1909 was the date that the Vesting Order and a Scheme for the Management of the Institute was published in the Gazette of India, officially establishing IISc. #IIScheritage #thisdayinhistory iisc.ac.in/history/
