Lab alum session in the retreat warms my ❤️. Joining us from Germany, Texas, Estonia, Sweden, France, Blore, Pune, Vellore, them sharing lab memories, hearing about their projects, the old and new branches connecting, look at the broad smiles! What more can a PI want? 🫶🏻❤️

[Ishwariya Venkatesh @Ishwariya13]

We are looking for 2 Dissertees (Start date July 2026- July 2027) and 1 Project-based trainee (1 yr) for exciting projects at the intersection of Stem cell therapy, Gene therapy, and Epigenetics! We will not accept 6-month trainees whatsoever, so pls don't email!

[Ishwariya Venkatesh @Ishwariya13]

You know what warms my soul? Seeing lab alum hang out well after they’ve left the lab, because the alumni network is organic and self-watering! You set the right tone, bonds are forged for life. Happy to see @arupamb07 and @DeeptaBeji from 2024 batch hang out in 🇩🇪❤️

My entire crew- current and past (from all over the 🌎) joined to wish me on Teachers day! I feel so touched, lucky and on ☁️ 9. The gifts were thoughtful, letters that I’ll cherish for life and even a handmade Wonder Woman poster 🙈 I’m not tearing up, you are. thank you😭🙏🏻🙏🏻

🚨🚨Dropping our 2nd V-Lab preprint, this time on work led by @Yogeshsahu2030 🥳! We identify 2 novel regulators of CNS axon regeneration post spinal injuries in 🐭 and dive into the underlying Mol.mechanisms. Incredibly proud of the whole team (tagged). https://t.co/28HEYAA3SD

[Ishwariya Venkatesh @Ishwariya13]

We bid farewell to @DeeptaBeji , our 1 yr dissertee, who’s off to start a spl masters in Estonia! We had Chaat potluck on our terrace and hearts + stomach were full ❤️ As I told her, V lab will always cheer for you deepta, and happy we could add wind to your wings! Go get em💪🏼

[Ishwariya Venkatesh @Ishwariya13]

Lab was in full attendance at the Society for Neurochemistry Meeting held @csiriict today! 10 posters from the lab, as always everyone presents whether they’re trainees or PhDs or postdocs. 🍒 on top? @Rutuja_P13 AND @Yogeshsahu2030 walked away with best poster awards! 🥳🎉👏🏼

[Ishwariya Venkatesh @Ishwariya13]

Could not be prouder of @DeeptaBeji who worked with @AnishaSumith on the 3D genome work for her dissertation. She optimized HiC pipelines in the lab *from scratch*, becoming a second author in the preprint ,which is richly deserved! Here she is at her poster! 🥂 you go girl! 💪🏼

[Deepta Beji @DeeptaBeji]

@Ishwariya13 @AnishaSumith Thank you so much!! Forever grateful to be part of this lab and for the trust to take on such an exciting project—couldn’t have asked for a better team to learn and grow with!

Day 2 retreat video 👇🏼State of the Lab Talk by me+ 🎂, Alumni virtual meet, Rationality workshop +games, crew personal website unveiling (more on this soon!), Innovate/Imitate workshop, more karoke 🎤, Mafia game & lots of food 🍱 , laughter 😂 Happy 3rd birthday 🎉 to our lab!

[Ishwariya Venkatesh @Ishwariya13]

Day 1 lab retreat video is here😄 Karoke 🎤, Live artist caricatures (solo,group), charades, food and of course science sprinkled in the form of an annual “SCI field talk” by me on historical papers, milestones and current trends in our field! Resting up before a big day 2!

Spinal cord neurons are famously long cells. If they get injured, their recovery depends on the distance between the site of injury and nucleus of the neuron, as shown by a recent study from @Ishwariya13's lab and her collaborators in @MarquetteU.

[Deepta Beji @DeeptaBeji]

@Ishwariya13 It's amazing being in a lab led by such an incredible woman! Your mentorship gives us the confidence to take on any challenge and push the boundaries of science. Thanks for believing in us and creating such a supportive environment where we can all thrive!

[Ishwariya Venkatesh @Ishwariya13]

So happy that our 1st paper from @ccmb_csir is out in @SfNJournals Journal of Neuroscience - https://t.co/bPXYm9bXoQ. A collab b/w our lab and @Blackmorelab where we show that Injury distance is v.imp for a transcriptional response post-SCI! Postdoc @manoj290991 is a shared 1st author 🎊🎂

[CSIR-CCMB @ccmb_csir]

Some neurons repair much easier than others. Scientists have found some of that is determined by how chromatin is arranged in their cells' nuclei. @AnishaSumith ponders upon it, and compares it with her own life as a young neuroscientist here:

We had a unique scicomm experience yesterday! We talked to curious kids and parents at Sanjeeviah park at Hyd about all things Neuro! The questions ranged from - memory to repair to stem cells followed by hands on activities helmed by our crew and all in all a fun scicomm day!
