DG @ICMRDELHI Dr Bahl describes the far reaching changes that will strengthen the health research ecosystem of the country, to face present & future challenges. Research, that generates contextually relevant evidence, is necessary for sound policy formulation. @MoHFW_INDIA

Recently, ICMR has worked to rewire India’s health research ecosystem from problem finding to solution seeking. Through policy-shaping national studies & future-ready research infrastructure, ICMR address today’s challenges while preparing for tomorrow's - Dr Rajiv Bahl, DG ICMR.

ICMR is honoured to receive🥇Gold Award at #NAeG2026 ICMR-MINDS, a multistate implementation research study integrating screening & management of mental and substance use disorders with NCDs, was recognised under Category II (Innovation using AI & new-age technologies) @DARPG_GoI

Honoured and humbled to be in the top 5% scientist #SciRank global registry 2025 While the metrics track global citations the credit is to my team of bright students & colleagues. It's a win for our collective dedication to cell and reproductive biology @icmrnirwoh @ICMRDELHI

ICMR issues Guidelines for "Establishment of Biorepositories in ICMR Institutes", enabling standardized practices in biospecimen collection, storage, sharing, biosafety, and ethical compliance to strengthen biomedical research in India. Read here: 🔗 icmr.gov.in/icmrobject/uploa…

You can’t have better teachers than Professors Subhash Lakhotia, L. S. Shashidhara and colleagues for fly biology. Apply for this ‘hands-on’ workshop on how teachers can use Drosophila for genetics, cell- and developmental biology. Ask the college teachers in your city to apply. And, enjoy a great intellectual week at @NCBS_Bangalore

Advancing India's clinical research ecosystem with innovation, ethics & excellence On #InternationalClinicalTrialsDay ICMR hosted 1st Annual Clinical Trial Meet 2026 on "Integrative Medicine Clinical Trials", bringing stakeholders together to strengthen evidence-based healthcare

It was great to pitch our technology for tranfer at the I2I Connect. Led by @Sharmishth38157 we presented our technology on RNASack a tool for multi-transcriptome and RNA-RNA interaction analysis. @icmrnirwoh @ICMRDELHI @DeptHealthRes

I’ll be in Monash Univ for next 7 days. It will be a pleasure to connect with fellow scientists and scholars.

Phenomenal talk by @Sanjeeva_IITB on proteiomics and AI in healthcare @iitbombay @BsbeIitb

I have spent my entire life working on this and thinking about this for the past 4 years. I don't know what will happen in 20 years, but I can promise you that on the 5-10 year timescale, scientists are not out of their jobs. AI is going to massively accelerate the pace of science, increase productivity, let individual scientists make way more discoveries way faster, and is going to make science overall more fun. But the model is going to be collaboration between humans and AI, not replacement. The key difference here between science and e.g. software engineering is that science is not verifiable in any rapid/convenient way (unlike software), unlike programming. We still need humans for their scientific taste.

Our scientist Dr Deepak Modi and Mr Abhijit Dixit (@BioRad) talked about digital droplet PCR followed by an engaging hands-on session by the team during the ongoing 4-week DHR sponsored workshop #AIinHeathCare.

Our scientist Dr Deepak Modi delivered a talk on AI tools to predict male infertility focusing on his work on Y-chromosome microdeletions during the ongoing 4-week DHR sponsored workshop #AIinHealthCare.

Congratulations @doctorsoumya
