Finally a good news post 😬. The NIH has started reinstating 900 critical research grants that were deemed unlawfully canceled. The court’s decision is a significant victory for researchers and institutions challenging the politicization of science funding.
Finally after 5 long years....it is Dr. Rituparna Roy! I will always be grateful to my thesis advisor Prof. Rishikesh Narayan @cnl_mbu_iisc for guiding me so diligently and positively throughout this journey!
For someone who’s just starting their PhD, here are some pointers, I wish I knew before I started:
1. Keep all relevant publications at 1 place as they come.

Dear @ShashiTharoor
Thank you for supporting our cause to increase research stipends. Scholars deserve better than Rs 8,000/month while the daily wage is Rs 14,130/month. Your advocacy is crucial. Your voice matters in ensuring scholars can focus on their work instead of survival. We appreciate your dedication @mamidala90@ugc_india
Dear @Google
Itne badhiya maps banaye, chota sa feature aur daal dete ki saaf saaf bolde flyover par chadhna hai ya neeche se jaana hai. 5 inch ke screen par aadhe milimetre ka deflection Kahan se dekhe aadmi?

दंगे के आरोपी को पूरी न्यायप्रक्रिया के बाद दोषी होने पर सख्त से सख्त सजा मिले, लेकिन उस से पहले उनका घर तोड़ा जाना गलत ही नही अन्याय है। किसी भी तर्क से इसका समर्थन नही किया जा सकता।
Nu variant:
We DON’T know for sure if it’s more transmissible, deadly or evades immunity
We DO know that masks, avoiding gatherings and vaccines will remain our best defense against it
Do what’s known and avoid panic
Caution is good; hysteria is bad
