The greatest pleasure of science is felt when you practise it without seeking glory . I’ll stick it in my study desk .

When I was in Class 12, it was my dream to study at IISc Bangalore. Today, on IISc’s 116th birthday, I had the chance to visit this gorgeous campus for the very first time. Happy Birthday, IISc !

“In science , teaching often benefits the teacher ; sometimes even more than it does the student.” - Prof. P Balaram Current Science

#OTD 1913: The Bragg father and son published a seminal paper in the Proceedings of the Royal society that laid the foundations of crystallography, a critical tool without which fields as diverse as protein science, nanotechnology, and nuclear chemistry would not be possible.

77 years ago this week Claude Shannon ushered in the field of information theory with his paper "A Mathematical Theory of Communication," which has been cited over 100,000 times: bit.ly/44rfByX

I always wish and pray that in my next life, I come back as a bacterium or virus , so I can remind humans who truly holds the power, and put an end to their arrogance as the so-called most advanced species on the planet.

Sad to hear of Frank Stahl’s passing. The Meselson-Stahl experiment, which I first learned about in my high school , sparked my love for biology. It remains the “most beautiful experiment in biology” . Frank Stahl’s legacy will live on in every biology textbook . University of Oregon

This was my first exam at @IISERMohali 😂! I managed to get a B in my Group Theory course taught by the famous Dr. Chetan Balwe. From next time onwards Prof gave 1 mark to all who wrote his/her name in the answer script. Symmetry is truly fascinating!😇

Extraordinary people , an outstanding lab and a stunning campus . Thank you Prof. T Govindaraju for giving me this wonderful opportunity !!

Wonderful having you with us Supratim Datta

Happy Birthday Mendel !!

Cells are so tiny that measuring their weight seems, at first blush, like an impossible task. But back in 1953, two biologists from Southern Illinois University — supported, in part, with funding from Anheuser-Busch! — invented a super clever method for figuring out the weight

My all time favourite quotation from Nobel Laureate Sydney Brenner . “I once made the remark that two things disappeared in 1990: one was communism and the other was biochemistry and that only one of these should be allowed to come back” Credits: Prof. P Balaram .

Honoured to meet the titan of Indian science and my inspiration, Prof. P. Balaram (former Director of IISc Bangalore), at his office in National Centre for Biological Sciences. Probably the most memorable day of my life ! We spoke for over 1.5 hours on a wide range of topics.

A maiden visit to National Centre for Biological Sciences to meet Prof. P. Balaram. As expected, the Bangalore institutes never fail to impress with their stunning campuses! This was my third visit to a Bangalore institute, after IISc and JNCASR.

Happy Birthday , Rosy !!
