New knowledge gives us power for change: for good or ill, for knowledge is neutral. The problems we face go well beyond technology: problems of living in harmony with nature, and most important, living in harmony with each other. Information technology, so closely tied to the properties of the human mind, can give us, if we ask the right questions, the special insights we need to advance these goals.” Herbert Simon , 1916 – 2001 Nobel Laureate in Economics, 1978 7 Preface Technology remains as the fountainhead for human development and economic growth.

Ghosh: [email protected] Dr. Amitabh Joshi: [email protected] Abstract Canalization denotes the robustness of a trait against genetic or environmental perturbation. Plasticity, in contrast indicates the environmental sensitivity of a trait. Stabilizing selection is thought to increase canalization of a trait, whereas directional selection is often thought to lead to decanalization. However, the relationship between selection, canalization and plasticity remains largely unclear. Experimental evolution is a powerful approach for addressing fundamental questions in evolution. Here, we ask whether long-term directional selection for reduced pre-adult development time in Drosophila melanogaster results in the evolution of increased canalization for development time, the trait under primary selection.

Narayan & Sons, B-88, Okhla Indl. Area, Phase-II, New Delhi Tel: 26385873 he Indian Council of Medical Research has made significant strides in its mandate of ‘Research for TBetter Health’. The Council has lived up to country’s expectations on all major fronts of its activity: research and development of vaccines and drugs for infectious diseases like tuberculosis, malaria, filariasis, HIV/AIDS, research in the areas of modern biology like molecular biology, genomics, bioinformatics, fertility regulation, cancer and other non-communicable diseases, consultancy and human resource development, national and international collaborations and biomedical informatics and communication. During the period under report, the Memorandum for the Expenditure Finance Committee (EFC) of ICMR has been approved by the Government of India and Rs.870 Crores have been allocated for the 10th Plan. The research activities will now be pursued with greater vigour as more funding would be available. To optimize resource utilization, the Council is using the Combined Approach Matrix being used by Global Health Forum for Health Research for setting research priorities in various disciplines. The Council continued to play an important role in detecting new and emerging infections in India like the Chandipura virus encephalitis in Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat and outbreak of mysterious fever in Siliguri.

    Staff Seminar - Main streaming Inclusive Education Students Engagement with society as part of Social Involvement Programme EDITORIAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Dr. Agnelo Menezes The Humane Factor Principal The topography of St. Xavier’s college is symbolic of the education it offers. The gargoyles, the intricate art MAGAZINE COMMITTEE work and the precisely-crafted windows are pictorial metaphors of the various delights that Xavier’s promises Ms. Rashmi Lee George (Convenor) to offer. A quadrangle enveloped by the splendour of Ms. S.P. Periyanayagi Indo-Gothic architecture opens into the sky beckoning Ms. Rashmi Mehta each individual to rise towards it. There are two ways Dr. Prasita Mukherjee of exiting this beautiful edifice: one is through the Dr. Dionysia Coutinho regular gates and the other is to fly upwards. We encourage you to soar into the sky. St. Xavier’s does not Mr. Roy Thomas believe in glass ceilings therefore sky is the only limit. Ms. Medha Taskar We at St. Xavier’s are a living culture teeming with Dr. Asha Naithani-Dayama action that overflows into the universe. The dynamism Ms. Alpana Palkhiwale in college is nurtured within the departmental-recesses. However, the action is not relegated to the college Students’ Editorial Board alone. We have criss-crossed space and time since 1869. ENGLISH SECTION Our trail-blazing ‘autonomous’ existence has been a result of creative pedagogy, courageous innovation, and Chinmayi Pilgaonkar (TYBA) meaningful collaborations. In 2016-2017, we carved our Shalmali Sankpal (TYBA) niche through various interventions both in academic Anant Venkatesh (FYBA) and societal spaces.
