I've been invited to join the Executive Committee of the Society of Biological Chemists (India), headquartered at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore. Founded in 1930, SBC(I) has been playing a crucial role for ~100 years. Looking forward to working with SBC(I) colleagues.
In a collaborative study led by @Krishanpal_K published in @CellReports, we show that phase separation of Plasmodium falciparum Heterochromatin Protein 1 is essential for heterochromatin formation and malaria virulence gene control. Congrats to the team!!

Three of my students (two former PhD students, Shruti Arya @ShrutiArya8 and Ashish Joshi @AshishJ87810510, and a current PhD student, Anuja Walimbe @anuja_walimbe) are currently attending the Biophysical Society meeting in San Francisco @BiophysicalSoc.
Thank you so much😇! I’m truly grateful to @BiophysicalSoc and @SamratLabMohali for this opportunity to attend the BPS meeting in San Francisco. I look forward to presenting my work on TDP-43 and engaging with the community!
Congratulations to my PhD student, Anuja Walimbe @anuja_walimbe, on receiving the Biophysical Society Travel Award to attend the @BiophysicalSoc meeting in San Francisco, California, in February 2026. She will present her exciting research on TDP-43, which is associated with ALS.
Happy to share our community note published in Nature Communications. In this 14-page article (34 authors from 9 countries), we discuss current practices in biomolecular phase separation and hope it will be useful to the biomolecular condensate community.
