A true worshipper of Lord Jagannath, Sudarsan Pattnaik wins Golden Sand Master Award at International Championship in Russia. He chose to create a 12 foot sculpture of Lord Jagannath on a chariot with his devotee Balram Das. Sudarsan's artisan has brought him laurels at international level, which makes the whole country proud of him as well.

Well done, Sudarsan! Jai Jagannath

Excited to share our latest @PlantBiotechJ article! We've developed a #miniature_genome_editor for plants using #TnpB nuclease. It's only 1/3rd the size of #Cas9/Cas12a and can access genomic loci that Cas9 can't reach.
