Who said string theory doesn't have real world applications? We are already making the world a better place 👇

String theory is probably a field that has set back quant trading by at least 10 years. Stealing top tier trading talent to do make believe 26 dimensional geometry, inflate boomer professors’s grant budget, and produce zero testable hypotheses or applications after 50 years

Modelling results suggest that even a single day of extreme heat yields thousands of excess deaths, and a multi-day heatwave results in tens of thousands of excess deaths. #Heat is a public health emergency. frontiersin.org/journals/env… @MoHFW_INDIA @ndmaindia @thePHFI @CEEWIndia

“CLEAR” technology can revolutionize protein imaging & facilitate detection of Cancer and Neurobiological Diseases
A novel imaging platform called Cleavable Light-Erased Antibody Reporter (CLEAR) could help researchers visualize an unprecedented number of proteins within the same biological sample using just a single fluorescent marker.
This could unveil new possibilities for high-resolution, multiplexed imaging across cells and tissues, with important implications for disease diagnosis and biological research.
Proteins are the primary orchestrators of biological function and remain the principal targets for therapeutic intervention, as well as key markers for disease diagnosis. A comprehensive proteomic map of a tissue sample—capturing the identity and precise spatial organisation of every protein within its native context could help pathologists in diagnosing cancers or understanding complex neurological disorders. However, mapping a large number of proteins within their native spatial context has remained a major challenge.

Introducing the Samvardhan Biodiversity and Conservation Fellowship — a 12-month Fellowship co-curated by Rohini Nilekani Philanthropies and Dasra, and seed funded by @RNP_Foundation, built to support the next generation of conservation leaders across India, especially those from grassroots communities and underrepresented regions.
Too many passionate conservationists leave the field not because they lose interest, but because the system doesn't support them. The Samvardhan Fellowship is here to change that.
What the fellowship offers:
- A seed grant of ₹3 lakh for practice-led conservation work
- Mentorship from conservation experts throughout the year
- Peer learning through cohort sessions, knowledge workshops, and community building
Who can apply:
- Early-career conservation researchers and practitioners under 35, engaged in public-interest conservation — whether in research, fieldwork, or community work.
- Applicants from diverse educational backgrounds and non-elite institutions are strongly encouraged. _(Note: PhD students are not eligible.)_
Applications are open now! Visit samvardhan.dasra.org to apply.
