2nd paper from Mechanobiologics Lab is out in Journal 'Small' @AdvPortfolio. This work led by my 1st PhD student Alka. Superb collaboration with @ahcells & Rudra Pratap @CeNSEatIISc. We discovered how confined spaces in tissue reduce tumor cell killing upon ultrasound treatment.

🎓 Huge congratulations to the graduating students of the Bioengineering Department! Your hard work, passion, and resilience have brought you here. Wishing you success and impact in all your future endeavors! @iiscbangalore #Convocation2025 #Bioengineering #iisc
Interested in a #postdoc on cardiac #mechanobiology? Our lab has a fully funded position via our recently awarded @HFSP grant to study the biophysical processes that build insect hearts🪲🪰🫀 Come join us @MBIsg for some cool evo-devo-mechanobio work! 👇 mbi.nus.edu.sg/jobs/seeking-p…
Please share with your friends and colleagues so any many junior and senior faculty and students and trainees from around India can attend and learn about the Tata-IISc Medical School, its exciting research and mission, and the opportunities. I request you to mark your calendars!
Our best wishes to Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla for his historic journey as part of #Ax4! We were privileged to host him as an MTech student at IISc and we look forward to the outcomes of his space experiments. We wish him and the entire crew a safe and successful mission!
Wow! Congratulations Jenn and team. First paper is always special.
It’s finally out!!🥳 Check out our paper in @NatureMaterials on a new hybrid scaffold where we discover ECM-specific cues that regulate cardiac aging 🔗 nature.com/articles/s4156… This is the lab’s 1st research paper, led by my 1st @NUSBME PhD student @AveryRuiSun🤩 Tweetorial👇
