Thanks a lot @kvijayraghavan for accepting the student invitation and being here @BSBEIITK1 with us in person. I personally learned a lot about your science and science administration in these two days! And our team had a wonderful time!
Oh and thanks for the selfie π¬π¬
All smiles, endless motivation, a little chaos, a lot of science β¨π§ͺ
Hereβs to experiments, fun lab moments, and the amazing people behind them. Happy SB Lab Day! π
Thank you so much @DeepakNModi!! It was a fantastic experience presenting our recent work on Fgf signaling and forebrain invagination at InSDB-ISD joint meeting! @SenJonaki78458@abandopa@InSDB_79
I was booked on AI101 from Delhi to JFK on 21 June. Few hours before the departure, I got a message that my itinerary had changed due to β*unforeseen operational reasons*.β I was scared as operational issues in AI after the past incident immediately raised safety concerns. (1/7)
Today I had a wonderful interaction session with several talented PhD students of @BSBEIITK1@IITKanpur. We discussed several important aspects of PhD life, research career, professional development, postdoc & faculty jobs, etc. Now at Lucknow airport & will soon fly to Varanasi.
It was an incredible seminar and an equally engrossing dinner discussion!! Thank you @SamratLabMohali for accepting the students invitation from @BSBEIITK1 ππ
Today I had an exciting visit/interaction with students/faculty @BSBEIITK1@IITKanpur wonderfully organized/led by the students @hiimanshisingh & her team under the leadership of @abandopa. Thank you for asking brilliant questions after talk. Had a nice dinner with the students.
This has been one of the most amazing things in the department! So glad that we are able to bring in such fantastic scientists from different domains. It's been a pleasure to be a part of the SITS committee. Thanks @abandopa for encouraging us to make this team and events happen!
This is a purely student led series.
Immensely grateful to the speakers @kvijayraghavan@Banerjeeiitb@DeepakNModi Dr. Shiladitya Sengupta and now @SamratLabMohali. In this series, students choose the speaker and monopolize them π
#InSDB24 comes to a close!β¨
We thank all of you who participated, contributed, and connected during our meeting.
Let us know what you enjoyed the most!
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
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 fantastic talk and a super awesome dinner with lots of food for thought! Thank you @DeepakNModi for accepting our invitation and being a SITS speaker at IIT Kanpur, we truly had a great time ππ
The heart of a blue whale, which can weigh in excess of 1,300 lbs (590 kg), is the size of a small car. The gigantic heart beats 8 to 10 times per minute, and each heartbeat can be heard from over 2 miles (3.2 km) away. Their arteries are so large that a full adult-sized human can swim through them.
At birth, a baby blue whale is already 25 ft long (the size of an adult killer whale) and can drink up to 150 gallons (568 liters) of milk a day, gaining as much as 200 lbs (90 kg) per day in its first year. They feed almost exclusively on krill, which are small, shrimp-like invertebrates that are on average only 1 or 2 centimeters long. They eat 4 to 6 tons of krill a day. As adults, they can grow up to 110 ft (33 m) in length and weigh up to 180 tons.
It's fascinating that throughout history, Earth has been home to some of the biggest animals, but the largest one of them all exists in our timeline, swimming in the deep ocean right now.
