“Your purpose as a scientist is to make discoveries and gift them to humanity. And those discoveries and that knowledge stays with humanity long after you are gone.” - 2022 chemistry laureate @CarolynBertozzi, awarded for developing bioorthogonal reactions.

My Address at the valedictory session of the 3-day "Emerging Science, Technology and Innovation Conclave" #ESTIC2026, at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi. Key Takeaways: "At ESTIC 2026, I commend the coming together of a wide range of scientific disciplines and international experts, including Nobel laureates. Our future aim has to be to ensure that ESTIC progressively evolves into a globally recognised platform where researchers, academicians, innovators, StartUps and Investors reach out to seek opportunities to participate, collaborate and co-create. The success of India’s research and innovation ecosystem would increasingly be assessed through its tangible contributions to national development and the vision of 2047.   India's research priorities need to increasingly focus on indigenous resources, indigenous methodologies and indigenous technologies developed within the country. Let us disperse from here with a call for transformation through technology with tangible outcomes for common citizens, reaffirming PM Sh @NarendraModi ji's advice to work on measurable outcomes for the years to come".

Warm congratulations to @aastha_mishra06 and team for the recent research work on whole-genome sequencing of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) to understand pathophysiological responses to acute hypobaric hypoxia is finally out in Physiological Genomics! This study reveals distinct cfDNA fragmentation patterns in patients with high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE), reflecting contributions from both blood and non-blood cell types, highlighting the systemic impact of the disease. Motif analysis provides further insights into inflammation, immune responses, and vascular dysfunction. The association of tissue-specific fragmentation scores with clinical parameters also highlights the potential translational value of cfDNA analysis.

Visited different stalls at the Exhibition put up at the "Emerging Science, Technology and Innovation Conclave" #ESTIC2026, at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi. The exhibition features selected 50 deep-tech StartUps, 13 departmental stalls and 10 departmental technologies, reflecting the breadth of India’s scientific and technological capabilities. Among the exhibits, for example, is CSIR Designer Rice with high-protein, low-glycaemic-index particularly for use by those having Diabetes, developed at CSIR–National Institute for Interdisciplinary Science and Technology Thiruvananthapuram. There is , for instance, an interesting StartUp developed Brain Electrode for management of Parkinson’s disease. The exhibition also showcases JEET, the SCMC4212 microcontroller unit developed by Signalchip, reflecting India's growing capabilities in indigenous semiconductor and electronic-system design. Other displays include bio-based packaging and reusable or application-specific products, illustrating the wider scope of innovation in materials and sustainability. The @narendramodi government has consistently reaffirmed its commitment to help StartUps link with industry.
