The Andhra Pradesh delegation explored the rich artistic heritage of Maharashtra through an engaging Warli art session during their Yuva Sangam Phase VI journey at IISER Pune 🇮🇳✨

Guided through the traditional art form, delegates experienced firsthand how creativity and culture come together to tell stories through simple yet meaningful expressions. 🙌🎨💛

It is special for the authors of these related AXL-Golgi studies to have their work featured on the cover for both. Congrats @ArnavSaha19, Prachi, @Tush96rkhane !

Thanks @BiologyOpen and @J_Cell_Sci
Thanks @ANRFIndia and @IISERPune

[Nagaraj Balasubramanian @AdhesionLab]

Glad to see this AXL-Golgi study featured on the cover of the current issue of @BiologyOpen. Congrats Prachi and @ArnavSaha19.

TITLE - 'AXL receptor tyrosine kinase regulates Golgi organization and function via an adhesion-Arf1 signaling axis in breast and lung cancer cell lines'

The image shows an MDAMB231 cell in which the receptor tyrosine kinase AXL (magenta) localizes to membrane ruffles (cyan overlay), and GM130-labeled Golgi (green). These two AXL pools contribute to cell function. The cyan overlay on the membrane ruffles was done using an image-editing tool.

In February 2026, researchers came together at #IISERPune for DENSITY 2026 — the Deep Earth Neutrino + Seismic Imaging & TomographY mini-workshop🌏✨

The event created a unique interdisciplinary platform where experts from Earth Science and Neutrino Physics explored how these fields can work together to explore the Earth’s deep interior. Sessions spanned topics such as seismic imaging, neutrino tomography, and underground science facilities.

A few resources related to the workshop are at the #DENSITY2026Workshop Website here:

Over the past week, the #Maharashtra delegation of #YuvaSangamPhase6, accompanied by four #IISERPune members, had a rich cultural and social learning experience in #AndhraPradesh, hosted by @iit_tirupati! They had the opportunity to meet Hon’ble Governor of Andhra Pradesh, Shri S. Abdul Nazeer, visit the quantum technology facility at SRM University in Amravati, the office of the Andhra Pradesh Capital Region Development Authority, and Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota. Their journey also included visits to Tirumala's Venkateswara Temple and the historic Chandragiri Fort near Tirupati. With meaningful interactions, cultural exchange, and memorable experiences, the Maharashtra delegation successfully concluded their visit to Andhra Pradesh.
