Had a lot of fun today talking about neurons and neurotransmitters to kids.
Never realized how hard it is to explain science without the jargons.

Elated to have such a good audience response today at the talk I gave on the occasion of National Scientific Temper day.
Questions about the scientific basis of several aspects of pseudoscience came flooding in.

The picture I submitted for Art in Science, a small contest as part of the DBS Annual Talks.
The picture is a confocal image of the third segment of the Drosophila antenna.
I have tried to correlate the three different olfactory sensilla to three Notes of a Perfume.

Reminiscences by Shobhona's former students. A supportive mentor long after you have left her lab, gently pushed trainees outside their comfort zone, very patient, believed in you, encouraged you to follow your dreams, impeccable leader. #ATDBSTIFR. Pictures from tifr websites

Useful and interactive session with Shyni Varghese @shynivarghese from @DukeU on grant writing, both for post doctoral fellowships & for your own lab. She says motivation and clarity of thought are key to a successful career in academia.
