Grateful to be a member of this outstanding research team.

Researchers at IISc have developed a maths model to understand how cancer cell plasticity – switching between drug-resistant and drug-sensitive states – affects adaptive therapy.

Every year, India watches 1000s of its engineers pack their bags for Silicon Valley, London, or Toronto. We call it "brain drain" and shrug it off as inevitable.

China had the same problem. Their best minds were scattered across MIT, Stanford, Google. Then in 2008, they decided to do something about it

Enter the "Thousand Talents Plan" - China's audacious bet to reverse the tide. The pitch was simple: "Why struggle on a postdoc salary in Boston when you can lead your own lab in Beijing?"

The numbers were eye-watering. 1 million yuan signing bonus. Research funding of 3-5 million yuan. Free housing. Your kids' education sorted. And here's the kicker - they didn't just want Chinese scientists back.

The Young Thousand Talents program started actively recruiting brilliant minds from India, Korea, Japan - anywhere they could find them. While we were busy celebrating our diaspora's success abroad, China was quietly building its own Silicon Valley.

Fast forward to today: China has pulled back 7,000+ top scientists. They're not just catching up in AI and semiconductors - they're leading.

Meanwhile, Indian parents still dream of their kids getting that coveted H1-B visa.

The brutal truth? Brain drain isn't fate. It's a choice. China chose to fight for talent. What did we choose?

🚀🌐Introducing AgentRxiv: a framework where autonomous research agents can upload, retrieve, and build on each other’s research.

AgentRxiv takes your research direction and progressively outputs research, building on its previous work with each new paper!

The entire Indian space program came out of IISc. Looks like you totally missed out the entire Rocket Boys series. If you count successful deep tech startups from IIT alums the list will be just too long for this platform. But they are also positive additions to Indian society…

1. Honest title of every transcription talk:

“everything we previously told you about transcription was wrong, again”

Honest title of every cell division talk:

“here are 3 more proteins that are apparently absolutely essential for cell division but no one worked on previously”

What can Minecraft teach us about cells in developing embryos?

Find out how a new theoretical approach by EMBL researchers can help us understand the dynamics of biological processes, such as cell sorting in embryos.

So happy to be the part of this program, looking forward to learn interesting stuff

[Mohit Kumar Jolly @mkjolly15]

We launched today 7-week summer training program (including lectures, hands-on sessions, a short research project) in computational oncology for 24 undergrad students from all over India & across disciplines (Engineering, Medicine, Data Science, Biology etc.) at @iiscbangalore 🧵
