पहले शिवसेना, फिर NCP और अब तृणमूल कांग्रेस।

हर बार एक ही पैटर्न - BJP और चुनाव आयोग मिलकर एक पार्टी को तोड़ते हैं�� फिर उसका चुनाव चिन्ह छीन लिया जाता है।

जब पूरी की पूरी पार्टी चोरी हो सकती है, तो करोड़ों भारतीयों के वोट चोरी होना भी हैरानी की बात नहीं।

वोट चोरी। सरकार चोरी। अब पार्टी चोरी - ये हमारे लोकतांत्रि�� पतन के प्रतीक बन गए हैं।

ECI की संवैधानिक ज़िम्मेदारी जनादेश की रक्षा करना है - मगर उल्टा वो उन ताकतों की मदद कर रहा है, जो जनता के फैसले को ही पलट देते हैं।

यह लड़ाई सिर्फ़ ममता बनर्जी जी की नहीं है। यह हर राजनीतिक दल, हर मतदाता की लड़ाई है जो स्वतंत्र और निष्पक्ष चुनाव चाहता है।

Dr. G.P. Talwar turns 🎂100🎂 this year — founder of the National Institute of Immunology, India.
Still shows up to work daily at the Talwar Foundation. Sharp mind, strong memory, fully independent.
His secret? Circadian Discipline.
A lifelong commitment to circadian rhythm—fixed sleep, wake, and meal times.
A powerful reminder: Circadian habit may be the foundational longevity hack.

As told today to a trainee: any big jump feels scary, sometimes you feel you’re not ready enough. I recall @ANNELAMOTT’s quote from Bird by Bird - you don’t have to see where you’re going, just the 2-3 feet ahead. You can make the whole trip that way. Best advice from a 📕 for me

Papers submitted on Tuesdays are more likely to be accepted by Nature whereas Wednesdays seem the most likely day to submit and secure acceptance to PLOS ONE. For Cell, Mondays and Tuesdays seem the best submission days in case of accepted papers.

I love finding a paper published years ago (5, 10, 15, 20) that isn't famous or field changing or has a ton of citations but when you read it is just awesome. Like, beautifully designed & executed & written. Best part there are so many papers like that lurking in the literature.

Every year I read a lot of grad school applications from accomplished people that don't give me the info I'm looking for. It feels like a major hidden curriculum thing. So here's (my opinion on) how to write a great Statement of Purpose/Research for a PhD program. 🧵 1/

Don’t forget the umlaut! Did you know the wildtype strain ‘Tu’ came from a pet shop in the German town of Reutlingen, a nearby city of Tübingen? This area was one of the sites of “The Big Screen” co-led by Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard in the 90s. #ZebrafishFunFacts @maxplanckpress

“The dog is a bit confused about what’s going on.”

New medicine laureate Mary Brunkow was caught off guard this morning when she discovered she had been awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

When we talked to her after she heard the news her surprise was palpable – she explained the “molecular slog” involved in her work and how research “takes a bunch of different brains working together.”

When kainate receptors go wrong: GRIK2 mutations connects seizures with wide-ranging behavioral changes.

Check out @Pushpinder_2002 's first #preLight, which talks about the work by Brynna T. Webb and the team.

[Pushpinder Singh @Pushpinder_2002]

Excited to share my first @preLights highlight!

Study shows how two human GRIK2 variants (A657T, T660K) tweak kainate receptor function, leading to major behavioral effects in mice. Fascinating link between ion channels biology & behavior.

Do Read !!! https://t.co/S9g5zjs1E3

The difference between doing a project and presenting it. An observation can lead to many avenues of explorations before focus turns to a specific discovery. Presenting it, in a talk / paper, follows inversely, with broad perspectives coming before & after the specific discovery.

[Tanentzapf Lab @TanentzapfLab]

The goal of a PhD is not to learn some facts or read a few papers or learn a bunch of techniques. The goal of a PhD is to learn independence, problem solving, how to finish things you start, resilience, & gain the ability to adapt & think creatively. Learning these things is hard
