Existing methods of actin quantitation suffer from many drawbacks. @amit_gpcr lab discusses a high-res confocal microscopy approach for F-actin measurement by image reconstruction w/o depending on raw fluorescence intensity of actin-binding probes.

Many congratulations to Amitabha Chattopadhyay @amit_gpcr for taking up the Editor-in-Chief position of The Journal of Membrane Biology: https://t.co/76ytnLZiCx, a well-known and reputed journal in the area of membrane biophysics and membrane biology.
@CSIR_IND
Happy to share our recent paper https://t.co/afZRAiLhyb in collaboration with @durbignon on change in GPCR-lipid (cholesterol & phospholipids) interactions associated with post-translational modification such as palmitoylation @ccmb_csir@CSIR_IND@JPhysChem
Today, I'll be delivering the New Fellow Lecture at the annual meeting of the Indian National Science Academy (INSA) at the Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB) Hyderabad @ccmb_csir@insa_academy. Looking forward to seeing you all at the CCMB Lecture Hall at 12:25 PM.
Prof. Purnananda Guptasarma (Biological Sciences, IISER Mohali) is winner of the first Tata Transformation Prize in sustainability category. It was announced today by Tata Sons and The New York Academy of Sciences.
Congratulations PG! @guptasarma_p@NYASciences@TataCompanies
@amit_gpcr lab have been detailing the effect of chronic statin use on cells. In their recent study, they show cAMP signaling by the receptor is reduced upon lovastatin treatment due to reduction in cholesterol + polymerization of the actin cytoskeleton.

Scientists of Twitter! The world needs more reminders that we're living, breathing human beings. Quote tweet this with a picture of you doing not-science.
I'm paying guitar and singing an old Bollywood Kishore Kumar song in a lab get-together at our apartment last summer.😊
