@PritamM__ @smartelegans Thank you.

[Simran Motwani @SimranM08]

Some milestones aren’t loud, they bloom quietly. 🌸
Grateful to my family, friends & mentor @smartelegans whose faith made this journey possible.

Dr. Simran Motwani- signing off one chapter, and ready to step into another with courage and wonder. 🎓💫

After years of experiments, late nights, and endless coffee… my PhD thesis is officially submitted! 📚✨ Here’s to tiny worms 🪱 teaching us big lessons about aging, mitochondria, and the microbiota. #ThesisSubmitted #C_elegans

New Preprint alert🚨Vit B12 from microbiota has profound effects on life history traits, including longevity, through a methionine cycle → mitophagy axis. RICTOR/mTORC2 restrains this axis to maintain normal lifespan. https://t.co/RCnv3vRDRO

[Sandhya Koushika @WormlockHolmes]

Gene-diet interactions. Adaptive capacity to dietary B12 levels is maintained by gene-diet interaction for lifespan. B12 is key in health & life span in a kinase mutant that depends on transsulfuration. @SimranM08 @NImmunology #apwm2023

@NImmunology @UnivofDelhi @iuis_online @DayofImmunology @DBTIndia @rajesh_gokhale @deb030903 Immensely proud of @SABNAMRAHMAN3 @SimranM08 and @jasleen97 for 🥇 poster prize highlighting their work on metabolic regulation of an innate immune signalling pathway in longevity assurance and cancer #themagicofworms !

[Arnab Mukhopadhyay @smartelegans]

Happy to share a new #preprints from lab led by @Gautam_sarkar1. We show that activated FOXO/DAF-16 senses somatic DNA damage to arrest germline development. Thanks @NImmunology @DBTIndia @serbonline @ICMRDELHI for funding.
