We are conducting a genetic testing camp for motor neurone disease in partnership with Dr. Shyama Narang Foundation, and the BRAINS Superspeciality Hospital in Bangalore.
The testing started from 3rd October and will go on till 30th October.

Our outreach team and science ambassadors are at KUFOS KOCHI to demonstrate sequencing via Oxford Nanopore. We are looking forward to collaborating with Rajeev Raghavan and getting to learn the intricacies of citizen science from his lab's extensive experience.

Thanks to Dr. Rajeev

This year's The Nobel Prize has been awarded to a special collaborator. His willingness to help CSIR-IGIB develop invivo gene editing strategies for sickle cell has been a lesson in generosity. We join everyone else in congratulating Dr. Weissman for doing so much for all of us!🙏

The grace, the humour and the wry wit - which I remember from a classroom nearly 30years back are all there in this brilliant article by Prof. Mahadevan. Read for insights about living with #PD …w-deccanherald-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.deccan…

We are at Pragati Maidan today at IGIB and Jigyasa exhibits.

Visit us tomorrow at the IGIB booth to witness genomics research that we do at the institute!

Congratulations to Debojyoti Chakraborty for his first TEDx talk!

My Ph.D. work of developing a DNA based organellar sodium probe is published today in Nature Biotechnology. It was a challenging journey, but one that proved to be incredibly rewarding. I am very grateful for my mentor Yamuna Krishnan who taught me and inspired me to do science.

Dr. Souvik Maiti addressed the students and faculty at University of Kashmir in the presence of Hon'ble Minister of Science & Technology Dr Jitendra Singh (मोदी का परिवार),
Prof. Nilofar Khan- the first woman VC of the university- along with other dignitaries.

and a class full of enthusiastic participants on how to solve a real life problem with CRISPR -Cas technology!

Third day starts with Shabnam Sehrish discussing genetic and chemical manipulation in #zebrafish CSIR-IGIB

Had a great opportunity of attending the 2-day symposium on 'Genomics towards better health' @KmrUniversity and showcasing our work kausiklab CSIR-IGIB as a part of #OWOLIGIB

The Hands-on Workshop on Zebrafish Techniques starts off with a discussion on ethics in animal experimentation by Vijay Pal Singh (VPS) 🇮🇳 CSIR-IGIB
