I had the privilege of presenting my research at the #MIDNAMSCON 2025 organised jointly by @IITKanpur and @GsvmKanpur. Thank you organisers for providing this platform. I would like to thank Prof. @bushraiitk for her guidance in this endeavour!

[Bushra Ateeq @bushraiitk]

🎉Huge congrats to @PromitGanguly22 & @tanaybiitk for their stellar presentations at #MIDNAMSCON2025
🏆Promit won 1st prize for his poster on epigenetic alterations in PCa
⚡Tanay delivered a powerful #flashtalk on genetic changes in PCa. We’re incredibly proud of you both.

Yes.

Writing is not a second thing that happens after thinking. The act of writing is an act of thinking. Writing *is* thinking.

Students, academics, and anyone else who outsources their writing to LLMs will find their screens full of words and their minds emptied of thought.

An interesting read!

How did humans loose our tails?
~25 million years ago, a monkey in Africa had a random mutation due to transposable elements (TEs) - pieces of DNA that can copy themselves in the human genome.

An Alu element was inserted into the intron of the TBXT gene, producing alternative transcripts lacking the 6th exon. This is due to pairing with another Alu element in the other side of the 6th exon.

This mutation is only observed in hominoids without tails: gibbons, gorilla, chimps. Their common ancestors can be traced to that one monkey-like animal 25 million years ago.

Introducing this mutation to mouse results in complete loss of the tail.

Congrats @ItaiYanai

Grateful for the enlightening talk by Prof Shiladitya Sengupta from @harvardmed. Your passion for drug design is contagious , and your insight has left us inspired and curious. Thankyou for pushing the boundaries between science and translation. @IITKanpur @BSBEIITK1 #SITS

[Bushra Ateeq @bushraiitk]

Happy to share our recently published study in @iScience_CP . Many congratulations to @ManzarNishat for spearheading the project, and coauthors @umar_k_khan, @_Ayush__Goel, @NALLASIVAMPALA6 for their invaluable contributions.

The 3rd SITS talk and another incredible experience. Not just a fantastic talk, but we also had some great conversation about career decisions. Thanks a lot @Banerjeeiitb for accepting our invitation!

A new study from our group is published in Cancer Research Communications @CRC_AACR. We have shown that targeting MALAT1 enhances the vulnerability to PARP inhibitors, by reprogramming the HR transcriptome and mimicking the "BRCAness-like" phenotype.

Extremely poor service by @FedExIndia, @FedEx. We had requested a perishable biological shipment from US. Initially, 5 days delay in clearance from @cbic_india. Thereafter, 2 days delay in handing over package to FedEx. The package was supposed to reach us a week earlier (1/2).

Remember: It’s okay to buy books even if you have a bunch you haven’t read.
It’s okay to get books from the library.
It’s okay to stack books in every room.
It’s okay to have books on you at all times and keep some in your car.
When it comes to books, do whatever makes you happy.
