Thanks to @RoyalMicroSoc for this incredible honour!
Huge congratulations to all the latest winners of the RMS Section Awards - including Life Sciences winner, Vaishnavi Ananthanarayanan @VaishAnanth pictured with @michellepeckham and @i_jayas.

Looks like a fun conference - but super disappointed with the representation of women (<25%). Surely, there are several fantastic women scientists who could be invited? @biaswatchindia @mkjolly15 @RamrayB @EMBO @iiscbangalore
Excited to co-organize with @RamrayB the version 2.0 of 'Physics of Cells & Tissues' meeting, focused on cancer & development.

Many thanks to our handling editor and our peer reviewer for helping us improve on the manuscript!
Deeply disappointed that #manels are still a thing in 2024. Requesting my colleagues from @iiscbangalore, @RRI_Bangalore and @iitbombay to reconsider their participation in this event. There is no dearth of excellent women researchers in Biophysics in Indian unis! – at Sydney, New South Wales

1/2 2024 news: After 2years of struggle, re-visions and sim+expr the team has finally made it - paper in @BiophysJ @Shivani_A_Yadav @NehaKhetan4 @hamiltonianaman dhruv (not on Twitter) Wave-like oscillations of clamped microtubules driven by collective dynein transport. Biophys.
Microtubules and motors are extiing. Seeing them move is even more so. In case of interest look up our lab website and apply to us for #phd #positions in #modelling and #experimental #reconstitition

🔈Spotted a new website called IAP-WiSTEMM. A joint initiative of the 3 academies @IAScBng @insa_academy & NASI, it describes itself as "an inclusive one-stop resource for women working in India in any area of STEM & allied fields".
Anyone have more info?

930pm ice cream w/ my MSc students enjoying "gyan" from the panel across many career stages. Unsolved questions, generosity, critical mass, community, include the global south says @VaishAnanth, coping w/ anxiety, work-life balance etc
⭐️ moderation @JessicaBithell @YeanMingChew1
We will celebrate 💯 #MotorsInQuarantine webinars today! @JessicaBithell and @YeanMingChew1 organised a panel discussion with @ErikaHolzbaur, Jim Sellers, @StefanDiezLab, @VaishAnanth, @CKYLau and myself. Please join us 4pm GMT. 🥳
Thanks for highlighting our (@polybiotique) report and its coverage by @dyanilewis. As we mention in our report, fixing this will require clearly earmarked resources, and importantly, the will and strong commitment to equity from the leadership in Indian academia – at Sydney, New South Wales
