Curious how dengue virus interacts with the human immune system—and how some antibodies can actually worsen disease?

Global Immunotalks 2026 has just begun!

[BRIC-NII @NImmunology]

The symposium featured a panel discussion on “Innovations in the Vaccine Ecosystem: Re-thinking Vaccine Development and Evaluation”, expertly moderated by Dr Nimesh Gupta @NimeshLab, the organising chair of the event.

The panel brought together distinguished experts including Prof. N. K. Arora, Prof. Jayanta Bhattacharya, Dr. Pragya Yadav, Dr. Syed Khalid Ali, Dr. Puneet Kalra, Dr. Sylviane Pied, Dr. Kakali Dey Dasgupta, and Dr Neeraj Aggarwal, representing key stakeholders across the vaccine ecosystem.

The conversations underscored a shared vision: building stronger interdisciplinary collaborations across research, policy, industry and global partnerships to prepare for future pandemics.

[BRIC-NII @NImmunology]

A key takeaway from the workshop and symposium is the need to build a network of select laboratories across the country to enable advanced immunological assays and human immune monitoring platforms.

Looking ahead, efforts will focus on developing a future-ready immunological framework for vaccine evaluation, particularly for high-risk pathogens and next-generation pan-family vaccines.

Strengthening pandemic preparedness and the future of vaccine development will depend not only on scientific innovation, but also on collaboration and #OneHealth approach.

At BRIC–National Institute of Immunology, we recently hosted the Valedictory Symposium: “The Future of #Vaccines – Harnessing Advanced #Immunology to Accelerate Development and Evaluation.”

The event marked the culmination of the National One Health Mission Hands-on Training Workshop on Immunological Assays for High-Risk and Zoonotic Pathogens, organised under the National One Health Mission initiative of the Prime Minister’s Office and the Indian Council of Medical Research.

@DBTIndia @BricDbt @ICMRDELHI

[BRIC-NII @NImmunology]

The third cohort of trainees join us at BRIC-NII for the NOHM Workshop on Immunological Assays for High-Risk and Zoonotic Pathogens.

Supported under the Pradhan Mantri Ayushman Bharat Health Infrastructure Mission (PM–ABHIM) of the Prime Minister’s Office and Indian Council of Medical Research and coordinated by Dr Nimesh Gupta @NimeshLab the programme continues to strengthen national capacity in advanced immunological assays for vaccine development and preparedness against emerging pathogens.

By bringing together researchers and laboratory professionals for hands-on training, the initiative contributes to building a skilled workforce equipped to address medical conutermeasures against high-risk and zoonotic pathogens in India.

Women constitute less than one-third of the world’s researchers (@UNESCO). Closing this gap is not only about equity—it strengthens the quality, relevance and impact of science.

As we mark the International Day of Women and Girls in Science#IDWGIS2026, we at BRIC-NII echo this year's theme “Synergizing AI, Social Science, STEM & Finance", a four-pillar approach to building inclusive futures for women and girls in science and innovation.

Who said immunology can’t be fun? 😄

Today’s High School Immuno Day at BRIC-NII, in collaboration with @globalimmuno, turned immune cells into superheroes and learning into games!

Science + Play = Perfect Match✅
Curiosity = Activated☑️

At the BRIC–NII zone of the @DBTIndia pavilion at #IISF2025, we’re introducing visitors to corona, influenza, and rabies virus… in MODEL form only, we promise. 😆🦠

See how these tiny troublemakers are built, how they sneak into our cells, and most importantly how to stop them from causing chaos.

Come meet the viruses without actually meeting the viruses! 😉

We were honoured to host Dr. Rajesh Gokhale, Secretary DBT, at the BRIC–NII booth at #IISF2025! 🙌

He explored all our demos and models—from AI in Action to cell and protein structure explorations in VR—and spent time interacting with young students and their parents.

Inspiring conversations, curious minds, and science brought to life! 🔬✨

Step Inside a Living Cell!🚶‍♀️🚶

At the BRIC-NII zome at #IISF2025, students are exploring biology like never before — using Virtual Reality to walk inside an animal cell and experience its inner workings up close.

A fully immersive journey through the microscopic world awaits! 🔬🕶️🚀

We were delighted that Hon’ble Minister of S&T Dr Jitendra Singh ji also tried the VR experience and appreciated the immense potential of immersive learning for young minds.

Here are some other views of Kīlauea summit eruption lava fountaining episode 38 in Halema‘uma‘u crater on the Island of Hawai‘i, and answers to some of your questions about this activity.

This eruptive episode began from the north vent at about 8:45 am HST this morning, December 6. Smaller fountains began from the south vent at 8:49 am HST and quickly grew to over 1000 feet (300 meters) high and inclined to the south, towards a closed area of Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park. At 9:55 a.m., hot tephra falling from this fountain destroyed the V3 streaming camera site located within less than a mile (2,000 ft/500 m) from the eruptive vents; its burial highlights the hazardous nature of this closed area. The north vent stopped erupting at 11:50 a.m., but the south vent is still fountaining as of this posting.

In addition to the tephra, volcanic gas is being emitted, with sulfur dioxide emission rates likely exceeding 50,000 tonnes per day. The high effusion rate of this episode is also producing a very dramatic plume extending over 20,000 feet above sea level. Both the National Weather Service and Washington Volcanic Ash Advisory Center issued special advisories about this plume, and the Hawaii County Civil Defense Agency issued a message about the potential for fine glass particles in communities downwind.

Kīlauea's recent eruptive episodes have gone on for 5-9 hours; this episode has been active for about 4.5 hours now. The USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory staff are closely monitoring this activity, coordinating with partners at Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park and the Hawaii County Civil Defense Agency. #Kilauea #lava #eruption
