Congratulations to Dr Tiisetso E Lephoto, Lecturer and Principal Researcher: School of Molecular and Cell Biology, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand and winner of the TW Kambule-NSTF Award: Emerging Researcher sponsored by South African Young Academy of Science (SAYAS). She received the award for her investigation of biological control agents (natural enemies for pests) which can help solve identified challenges, and the identification of new insect-killing microscopic worms called entomopathogenic nematodes, which have the potential to infect and kill problematic soil-dwelling insects in farms within 24-48 hours upon invasion.

**Exploring the World of Bioinformatics for Marine Genomics** In the realm of bioinformatics, marine genomics stands out as a captivating frontier. Recent advancements in sequencing technologies have unveiled the genetic blueprints of deep-sea organisms, revealing astonishing adaptations to extreme environments. For instance, the genome of the Antarctic icefish showcases unique antifreeze proteins that prevent its blood from freezing in sub-zero waters. Additionally, marine bioinformatics is uncovering how certain algae employ highly efficient photosynthesis mechanisms, potentially inspiring new renewable energy technologies. This interdisciplinary field merges molecular biology with computational algorithms to decode vast genomic data, offering insights that could drive breakthroughs in environmental science and biotechnology. #MarineGenomics #Bioinformatics #GenomicResearch

Self-learning and self-assessment: I have qualified GATE 2024 examination with Ecology and Evolution getting all India rank 90. I am specialized in Molecular Biology and Biotechnology and have already qualified CSIR JRF, UGC JRF, ICMR JRF and GATE with Life Sciences earlier. I was pursuing PhD in Transcription Biology and Functional Genomics from JNU where I was working on melanocytes and melanoma cells as models. But due to some personal reasons I had to quit PhD after 2 long years. After a short gap, I started my PhD again and this time I was working on Biosystematics, Evolution and Nanotechnology using arthropods as models out of my personal interest. I am trained in Nanotechnology from AIIMS, New Delhi and in Arthropod Biosystematics from ICAR-IARI, New Delhi during the gap period between my two PhDs. But I wasn't very sure about the basic and advanced concepts of Ecology and Evolution which I learnt mostly through self-study. I attended workshops, participated in seminars, listened talks in conferences, read books and research papers. I constantly try to correlate and analyse my observations in nature with what I learnt in theory. I never hesitate asking questions if I have any doubt. It helped me retain the concepts. But I wasn't sure if I was learning in the right direction. So, I took GATE-2024 examination for the sole purpose of self-assessment post self-learning. Due to my current job I couldn't get time to study anything properly prior to this exam and wasn't able to revise anything but I am glad that I could crack it without any extra effort. Though I am not sure how this GATE scorecard is going to help me in future, it feels great that I was learning Ecology and Evolution in the right direction! #gate2024 #gate #ecology #evolution #zoology #molecularbiology #biotechnology #selfassessment #selflearning #teachingandlearning #scicomm #activitybasedlearning #research #biology #biologyteacher #nature #nanotechnology #entomology #jnu #aiims #icar #professor

IMPRS "From Molecules to Organisms" Germany Applications close: 27 January 2025 The International Max Planck Research School (IMPRS) 'From Molecules to Organisms' [IMPRS "From Molecules to Organisms"] is a joint graduate school operated by the Max Planck Institute for Biology Tübingen, the Friedrich Miescher Laboratory and the University of Tuebingen. The IMPRS ‘From Molecules to Organisms‘ provides the next generation of scientists with the knowledge and skills to study complex biological processes, which cannot be adequately understood within the limits of single disciplines, in the context of entire organisms. The IMPRS ‘From Molecules to Organisms‘ provides excellent interdisciplinary training across the disciplines of structural, molecular, cellular and developmental biology as well as bioinformatics, genomics and evolutionary biology. The challenging and innovative program bridges between diverse disciplines and several levels of biological organization. Research topics offered to the students are drawn from the following traditionally separate fields: - Biophysics - Biochemistry and structural biology - Bioinformatics and computational biology - Molecular and cellular biology - Developmental biology and genetics - Genomics and proteomics - Microbiology and microbiome science - Evolutionary biology and ecology Official website  https://lnkd.in/gPaHaJbv #imprs #graduateprogram #Germany #maxplanck #phd #StudyinGermany #phdlife #phdposition #phdpositiongermany #lifescience #biology #science #phdproject #phdprogram #Tübingen #FriedrichMiescher

The IRBI is a joint research unit of the University of Tours and the National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS). The diversity of expertise has been perpetuated since the unit's creation (1961) by bringing together under one roof researchers and lecturers from different disciplines (e.g. ecology, physiology, genetics, (bio)chemistry, physics, bioinformatics and mathematics), making the IRBI a rare place with an asserted international identity on insect sciences. In order to understand the puzzle of life and to confront the complexity of biological systems, their functioning and their evolution, the IRBI thus implements a resolutely integrative approach at the interface between the organismal biology, ecology (in its mainly molecular, chemical, physical and behavioural dimensions), and evolutionary biology. The areas of transfer range from biological control for sustainable agriculture to the development of new technologies for the control of vector and invasive insects in urban and natural environments, as well as biomimicry or the production of insects for feed and food. https://lnkd.in/ezSBUjsw
