“Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much!”

I am thrilled to start a new journey with @NatureMatesNat, supported by @3CS_ashoka & @AshokaUniv, to connect research and conservation. Thanks to @eaglenestwls and SBVCR for the cooperation.

#NewPreprintAlert In our recent manuscript, we teamed up with Shivani Krishna's group to show how host-specific filtering shaped the microbial communities in multiple Indian Social Honebees. Thanks to @Deepnb for driving this project

Long before flowers dazzled pollinators with brilliant colors and sweet scents, ancient plants used another feature to signal insects: heat.

The findings in Science, based on an analysis of the biology and relationship between modern cycad plants and the rare beetle species that pollinate them, offer new insights into what shaped the earliest eras of plant-animal coevolution. https://t.co/l1XqDcOF7r

#NewPrerprintAlert Using experimental evolution and RNAseq analyses, we show that adaptation against long-term protein deprivation trades off with immunocompetence and the ability to survive pathogenic infection; #SaubhikSarkar @Deepnb @nbodhi84

My first butterfly paper is now published in @Ecology_Letters!

Together with my colleagues, we explore the causes of female colour variation in Blue Butterflies (Polyommatus icarus), particularly roles of geographic variation and phenotypic plasticity:

Wonderful to see this collaborative effort published in @AnnualReviews Ecology, Evolution & Systematics, where we compiled the recent progress and highlighted emerging questions in Immunology from an evolutionary and ecological standpoint. https://t.co/wCVJUp1LYx

@Dipya_Ganguly @pnas @srijan_seal @evoimmunoimroze @TSB_Ashoka @3CS_ashoka Thank you

[Dipendra @Deepnb]

Our new paper on host evolution against coinfection is now published in @PNAS. Congrats to the colleagues @srijan_seal @evoimmunoimroze . Thanks to Simons-Ashoka Early Career Fellowship @TSB_Ashoka and @3CS_ashoka.

[ImRoZE @evoimmunoimroze]

A big congratulations to @srijan_seal and @Deepnb. Their manuscript, "Pathogen growth and virulence dynamics drive host evolution against coinfections," is now accepted in @PNAS. Thanks to @India_Alliance @TSB_Ashoka @3CS_ashoka @sse_evolution @serbonline

Ashoka University invites applications from Master's students with a keen interest in immunology to participate in the Global Immunocourse to be hosted at Ashoka University from December 13 to December 22, 2024. The Global Immunocourse is designed to provide a comprehensive introduction to the foundational knowledge of immunology. It offers a unique opportunity for aspiring immunologists to engage in discussions with leading experts in the field, gaining insights into cutting-edge research and developments. Students pursuing their Master’s degree with a strong academic background and a special interest in immunology are encouraged to apply.

New paper alert! Symbionts have allowed insects to colonise novel feeding niches, but how has this influenced diversification? In @NatureEcoEvo we show that symbionts are associated with extreme highs and lows of insect diversification.
