Had the best time talking bout wet space rocks at my alma mater Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona 🤘 Huge thanks to Dr. Josep M Trigo ⭐🌛#PlanetaryDefense #DART HERA for hosting me at Institute of Space Sciences (ICE-CSIC) and for the wonderful presents (including 2 gr of real meteorite! 😱) 🙏 #astrobiology @UTRGV South Texas Space Science Institute

Tomorrow night, I'll be giving a lecture to RASC Montreal Centre about how looking for life beyond Earth changes the way we perceive life right here at home. You can tune in over Zoom: rascmontreal.org/2024/12/event-…

We want to thank Michael Wong for giving us such an amazing talk on #astrobiology ! What a way to start off the new year! If you missed the talk, fret not! We have it all recorded here on our Youtube channel➡️ youtu.be/bewJxOCdM5I

Extremely excited and humbled to have been elected into the Board of Directors of NASA's Texas Space Grant Consortium! 🇺🇸 🚀 We'll work hard to promote STEM education, outreach, & research across Texas ✌️NASA Texas Space Grant South Texas Space Science Institute @UTRGV #astrobiology #spaceisforeveryone

Many interesting sessions here, including our one on the role of layered minerals in the origin of life in both terrestrial and extraterrestrial environments! Share, submit abstracts and I look forward to seeing you in Dublin!

The #DasGuptaLab has been awarded two awards from Notre Dame Global. With the Asia-Artist Partnership Award, we’ll collaborate with IIT Gandhinagar Artist-In-Residence arghya manna to create a comic book on the Origins of Life.
