Experiments in Living Cells and Theoretical Work Have Implicated Energy-Consuming Patterning Mechanisms Located at the Cell 'S Edge, the Plasma Membrane Experiments in living cells and theoretical work have implicated energy-consuming patterning mechanisms located at the cell 's edge, the plasma membrane. These are expected to assist in reading signals from the outside world and transmitting them into the cell. An in vitro system Compiled and edited by Sumantra Chattarji, consisting of a few ingredients involved in this Arachana Shetty and Savita Ayyar mechanism is shown in the movie strip.

Krishnan was unusual in the way he repeatedly linked his scientific questions with innovative solutions that were rooted locally. In his science, Krishnan linked the dance of molecules in the nerve cell to the behaviour of the animal in an interactive world. Cutting seamlessly across scale is the quintessence of biology, and Krishnan did this effortlessly. We will long cherish his huge enthusiasm for science, his generosity and his inimitable style: he would do what he loved, inventing devices and looking at molecules or animals in many ways and he could always inspire others to get the very important details done. Inspired by Krishnan and his explorations (along with Mani Ramaswami and P. Balaram) into the biological wonderland (venoms) of native cone snails species, we have embarked on a new programme in Chemical Ecology. This aims to connect the scales of biology, represented on our campus from the single molecule to ecosystems. With an expanding array of field stations NCBS)], thematics [from basic mechanisms underlying how cells chose their fate by a complex accessible to our researchers and the natural biodiversity that these field stations offer, our interplay of nature and nurture to the use of stem cells in translational research (at inStem)], programme offers a veritable cornucopia of possibilities for original research that is locally with the technological capabilities necessary [development of core facilities and new technology rooted. To add to the excitement this new avenue offers we welcome our newest recruit, Shannon necessary for Biology and innovation (at CCAMP)]. I see huge potential of combining different Olsson (Chemical Ecologist) to our campus. We also welcome P. Shivaprasad (our first card- modes of research, in which individual laboratory based (NCBS) and theme driven approaches carrying plant biologist), Ranabir Das (NMR spectroscopist), Varadha Sundarmurthy (infectious (inStem) could create a heady mixture for truly exciting science. disease biologist) who have all recently joined us and will surely engage with the avenues that field biology opens up. If this potential is to be realized, we will need an enlightened mechanism to govern the interactions of this cluster of institutions, without compromising individual institutional identities, autonomies And as a sign of coming of age (NCBS just turned 21 last year) some of our colleagues who have and directions. inSTEM and CCAMP were established with the explicit involvement of both NCBS’s been nurtured here, are testing new pastures. We bid farewell to Deepak Nair, Madhusudhan administration and scientists, to help amplify research potential on our campus. The presence Venkadesan, and Yamuna Krishnan. Deepak moves to the Regional Centre for Biotechnology in of these institutions enriches our scientific environment, and opens avenues for PIs to initiate New Delhi to head up a structural biology unit there. Madhu moves to Yale University to build up projects that transcend limitations imposed by the scale of work possible in an individual’s on research that started here on biomechanics and control theory, and Yamuna to the University laboratory. of Chicago to expand the scope of her interactions in her domain of DNA-based sensors. Apurva Sarin also moves away from NCBS, but fortunately not too far; she takes on a big challenge as the Some fruits of such collaborative and theme based research are beginning to be realized, in the new Dean at inStem.

He studied chemistry at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Bombay and has earned his Ph.D. in life sciences from The Rockefeller University, New York. He developed tools to study the trafficking of membrane lipids and GPI- anchored proteins in mammalian cells using quantitative fluorescence microscopy during his post-doctoral research at Columbia University. Prof. Mayor has to his credit some of the prestigious national and international awards. Few of the awards and fellowships include Foreign Associate to US National Academy of Sciences, EMBO Fellow, TWAS Prize in Biology, JC Bose Fellowship, CSIR-Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Award, Swarnajayanti Fellowship, Wellcome Trust International Senior Research Fellowship, Mizutani Foundation for Glycoscience Award, Helen Hays Whitney Post-Doctoral Fellowship, etc. The prestigious Chevalier de l’Ordre national du Mérite award reflects Prof. Mayor’s extensive efforts in supporting Indo-French scientific collaborations.

Bandyopadhyay the Upanishads and the Puranas, where the concept of soul Abstract—Vedic philosophy is one of the oldest existing (Atman) was evolved. The souls are a reflection of the philosophies of the world. Started around 6500 BC, in Western Supreme God and hence, in Hinduism there is no concept of Indian subcontinent, the Indus valley Civilizations developed a ‘anti-God’. The divine play (Lila) is the play in which Brahma theology which, gradually developed into a well-established transforms Himself into the world. Lila is a rhythmic play philosophy of beliefs, popularly known as ‘Hindu religion’. In Vedic theology, the abstract concept of God was formulated mostly by close which goes on in endless cycles, the One becoming many and observation of the dynamicity and the recurrence of natural and many becoming One [2, p.220]. “…If we think that the shapes universal phenomena.
