Many congratulations to @Guptapooja_28 for the Young Scientist Award at the 11th Annual Conference of Society for Mitochondrial Research and Medicine, India at @MAHE_Manipal for her work on Dynamic Organization of Respiratory Complexes. @CSIR_IND @SwastiLab

Gupta Pooja Ramesh (Registration No. 10BB19A03017) Ph.D. student of AcSIR will defend thesis entitled “Dynamic organization of respiratory complexes” on November 06, 2025 at CSIR-Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology, Hyderabad. Ph.D work was completed under the supervision of  Dr. Swasti Raychaudhuri, AcSIR/CSIR-CCMB, Hyderabad @CSIR_IND @ccmb_csir

@Guptapooja_28 from our lab is presenting her work on relationship between the mitochondrial proteins and lipids that essentially maintain the respiratory complex 1, happening at #EMBOCCMB25 @EMBO @ccmb_csir

Changes in DNA-->changes in proteins: that's the basis for most discussions on evolution of life forms. But living cells are much more than proteins. @SwastiLab's recent work makes us think of lipids in evolution. @SomdattaKarak writes @TheHinduScience: thehindu.com/sci-tech/scienc…

A cell carries out many complex functions. And proteins are the most credited molecules for those. But the recent study from @SwastiLab brings our attention to how lipids have shaped evolution of some very fundamental proteins in living cells: doi.org/10.1038/s41467-025-5…

Excited to share our lab's latest research article !! Kudos to the authors @Guptapooja_28 and @SristiChakrobot 🥳🥳 nature.com/articles/s41467-0… @ccmb_csir @AcSIR_India @CSIR_IND
