Each month an #egg is ovulated from the #ovary, starting the journey of reproduction. But how does ovulation occur?🥚
Our latest work in @NatureCellBio led by @LastChrisThomas and @Tabea_Marx, describes the control of #ovulation using live imaging.

Recently a young woman from Kochi, Kerala lost her life due to work exhaustion. Ms. Anna was 26 years old. She had recently joined Ernst and Young India, Pune office.

Ernst and Young (EY) is what people call, one of the Big4 - The Big Four are the four largest professional services networks in the world: Deloitte, EY, KPMG, and PwC.
Ultimately it does not matter if you are working for the big four or not. What matters is that you are dispensable. Anna's family lost their daughter. EY India lost an employee. They will find another one. Anna's family won't ever, and cant, find another daughter.
Do not get married to your work. Life is precious. Moments with family are precious. If you are inside a toxic work culture, within an environment that nurtures toxic positivity, then fight hard to make it better for you. It is not easy for everyone to just quit and move to a better workplace. Only certain privileged can afford to jump jobs. It is not easy to make a jump and find a job easy in India.
If the work is going to ruin your mental health and exhaust you physically, so much that it will drive you to your ruin, talk to people, find help, get help and systematically plan a change. Overworking does not guarantee success.
In 2021, on Diwali night, work culture toxic positivity resulted in my near death experience when my car crashed into a trailer truck parked on around the road shoulder. IUp until that moment, I believed that a good doctor was one who saw many patients and who always took the calls no matter what. I was wrong. I was taking call from the ICU and giving instructions to get a patient better instead of focusing on the road. My family would have lost me that night. But I survived, thanks to the seat belt. I stopped working weekends. I made it a 5 day week for myself. My Department did not suffer because of this. I still see patients the same, but the quality of my work improved. Sleep got better. Family involvement got better.
Sleep is the most underrated part of life. It is also the most hit inside a toxic work culture. You wont realize this, because encouraging people to sacrifice sleep and nurture the work environment is normalized in many organizations including the medical profession.
For Mathrubhumi news media, me and other experts speak about toxic work culture, toxic positivity and adverse health events.
Just take care of yourself. You were born alone, you are going to leave alone. You are your best friend when it comes to health.

Hi fellow researchers, I am @zoya_mannn, PhD student in Alpha Yap’s group @IMBatUQ.
I’m interested in understanding mechanobiology of epithelial cells- how dead cells are eliminated from epithelial tissue via extrusion & their driving mechanistic forces.
How can we use cell shapes and geometry to study mechanics of tissues?
I'm @JuliaEckert10 and with this thread I would like to show you the secrets of cells and tissues. Let’s connect biology with a little bit of physics. Don't be scared and get inspired 😀. #EpithelialMechanics
Unless North India wakes up & realises that this poisonous divisive talk will not bring them any development or harmony, unless they realise that such hate mongering will disturb peace & deter investment, India cannot be saved. So much depends on the Hindi belt saving itself
