Paper out! My postdoc work on super-res 3D organization of human centromeres and cohesin is live now in @NatureComms nature.com/articles/s41467-0… We have defined core conserved features of the centromere and how extensive variations in centromere sizes are accomodated
New #research from @notdatkndofdctr (@GertonJennifer Lab), published in @NatureComms explores the organization of human chromosomes at their centromeres—regions of #DNA typically located near the center, corresponding to the midpoint of the ‘X.’

IIIT-Delhi has raised its Ph.D. fellowship from Rs 37,000 to RS 60,000 per month, making it the highest in India. This move aims to attract top research talent and provide scholars with financial stability, surpassing UGC and DST standards.

I have migrated to the other side. I will maintain my X account to receive updates from necessary accounts that have not migrated yet or will only be posting here. However, I will not be posting or reposting anything here. You can find me by my name on the other side.
It was a great event. Gratitude to the organizers!
Institute postdocs had an incredible time at the annual Postdoc Retreat on Friday! Highlights included engaging talks, inspiring poster sessions, & plenty of opportunities to connect & collaborate. Great #research being shared!

Postdoc Position Available
I am seeking an enthusiastic postdoctoral researcher to join my lab @OMRF, studying Astyanax mexicanus cavefish to explore metabolic adaptation. Ideal candidates should have a strong background in metabolism and basic molecular biology skills. Please RT
Just putting this out there for anyone thaf wants to buy me a birthday gift 😄

Another great discovery from @JSheltzer lab closing the gap in racial disparities in cancer care
New paper from my lab: pollution-driven whole-genome duplication events contribute to racial disparities in cancer patient outcome.

It's happening.. My new cavefish facility @OMRF! Exciting times ahead. Soon it will be time to bring in the fish.
So much untapped variation in the human genome!
New preprint from our lab 🚨 We explored the variability in ribosomal DNA copy number and activity across humans of the world

Joseph Gall’s has been an inspiration for so many Nuclear Biologists including me. His seminal contributions in the understanding of all nuclear organelles but especially Cajal bodies and the nucleolus have inspired me since my graduate school days and will continue to do so.
We are sad to report that the legendary Joseph Gall, called the founder of modern cell biology for his contributions to our understanding of chromosomes and the cellular nucleus, and a widely recognized champion for women in science, has died at 96. carnegiescience.edu/news/jos…

Kicking off a great start to #CRC24 is Investigator @MashruwalaAmeya! 👏 #science #researchconference
Interesting study on Mosquito and human interactions
I am very excited to share the news that our study was just published today that reveals that thermal infrared is a new cue that mosquitoes use in combination with other cues to home in on people. The detection mechanism depends on TRPA1 and two opsins. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

I was extremely fortunate to work on an interesting project for my PhD. I wish I had more time to follow up on several findings we made. Hoping to uncover more fundamentals in #chromosome biology🤞

Want a simple story about chromosomes? Here it is! This video is meant to teach basics of genetics to young minds. Hope this helps spark interest in budding chromosome biologists.
What exactly is a #chromosome? Ayantika Sen Gupta (@notdatkndofdctr), postdoc in the @GertonJennifer Lab, explains in our next #BioBasics episode – including why Institute scientists study them. 🧬 #biology #science

Congratulation to Team India & @TheHockeyIndia for such a historic feat. First Tokyo,now Paris. HERE WE GO!!
Beating Australia in Group Stage,Knocking out GBR in a penalty shootout,you should all be very proud of the achievement.
#PRSreejesh What a way to bow out. U r a legend.
