Can’t be a prouder mentor to note that the first PhD-student of the lab @TabishiqbalSyed has accomplished a nearly impossible task of receiving the Stanford Science Fellowship, making him the first Indian PhD holder to receive this highly prestigious fellowship @iiscbangalore
I am truly humbled to share that I have been awarded the prestigious @StanfordFellows Award by @Stanford. Fortunately, also making me the first Indian to receive this award. Looking forward to the exciting opportunities lies ahead. (1/2)

🐄 Scientists have identified a microbial enzyme from cow rumen that can dismantle Klebsiella pneumoniae-produced biofilm – a protective barrier shielding the pathogen from a host immune system. 🔗 Read more: go.nature.com/4fsyJAY #NatureIndia @DebasisDas_Lab @DipaLab_IISc

Have a look at our work on defeating bacterial defense using a novel enzyme, amazing collaborations with @DipaLab_IISc @Nature_NPJ @iiscbangalore
Disease-causing bacteria secrete thick biofilms that limit the entry of drugs and lead to antibiotic resistance. IISc scientists show that an enzyme found in the cow's gut can break down this biofilm. iisc.ac.in/events/breaking-d… #IIScresearch

Had a wonderful time listening to exciting talks @EMBO's 60th Anniversary meeting (@EMBO_YIP). Also had fun hanging out with the Indian contingent in Heidelberg @shubhatole @PenmatsaLab @RamrayB @baskarb11 @SandeepME_IISc @Jain_Lab @DebasisDas_Lab (missing @Debojyoti_C) !!!
Bringing together life scientists from Europe and beyond - the meeting of the EMBO communities at its peak #EMBOat60
