Curious: Is anyone in India doing TSD experiments? An amazing physics+biology phenomenon happens in these turtle eggs. Depending on the exact temperature value, the same egg can become male or female; the sex is dependent on the temperature at which the egg is hatching!

People thronging to get their book copies signed when Sanjeev Sanyal visited IIT Bombay for a talk!

Was at Thanjavur this weekend. Visited the Big Temple, which is one of the most amazing historical structures in the world (1,000 years old), and the oldest library I have ever seen (~500 years old). It houses millennia-old manuscripts (many of them probably still unread!).

Q: Why doesn’t India produce many world-class engineering startups? A: Because the best engineering talent doesn’t join core product-based startups. ------------------------------------------------------------ Q: Why doesn’t top talent join core engineering startups? A: Because

Excellent new paper from my Biosciences & Bioengineering, IIT Bombay colleague Anirban Banerjee and team in Nature Microbiology. Congratulations Anirban and team

Update from lab: Vinoth (Vinoth) has successfully defended his PhD thesis. Congratulations, Dr. Vinoth! 🎓 He developed a reaction-diffusion model for biochemical events in the nucleus, focusing on histone modification spreading.

Excited to announce the first in a series of seminars from the HOMI (History of Mathematics in India) initiative! This one starts off in an hour and is hybrid. Join us on Zoom if you can. More details at: seminars.historyofmaths.in/seminars/20250… PS. The talk will be recorded.

Commemorate the life and science of our dear departed colleague Jon Widom - this Thurs May 15 1230 pm in Pancoe Auditorium Northwestern MolBioSci Northwestern - our distinguished Widom Lecturer is Prof. Lucy Bai Penn State - Chromatin Accessibility and the 3D Genome

Google's AI just made math discoveries NO human has! —Solved optimal packing of 11 and 12 hexagons in hexagons. —Reduced 4x4 matrix multiplication from 49 operations to 48 (first advance in 56 years!) and many more. AlphaEvolve is the AlphaGo 'move 37' moment for math. Insane.

Everyone knows / has heard about CPR..... But do u know about E-CPR? It is 10x form of CPR. E-CPR is a form of CPR that can be used if a person has an arrest ( no pulse) in a hospital . Doctors hook up a machine, called ECMO ( pronounced EKmo) (extracorporeal cardiopulmonary
