Thank you for covering our work. we are actively getting involved in developing such systems for the female reproductive tract and placenta for women's health research. Hope the funding is sustained and improved and the evaluation committees takes cognizance that the mouse is ≠25g human

March is Endometriosis Awareness Month Much of our knowledge on endometriosis also comes from animal models. Our work and others show Hormonal resistance, persistent inflammation and fibrosis as the key. #Endometriosisawarenessmonth #Endometriosis #Fertility #Infertility #MedTwitter #Scicom

Implantation is not just attachment—it’s a coordinated cellular dialogue between embryo and endometrium. We are only beginning to understand its complexity. #Implantation #Fertility #IVF #ReproductiveBiology #Infertility #Science #india

#Endometriosis is one of the most misunderstood disorders in reproductive health. Despite affecting millions, we still: Diagnose it late Treat symptoms and not causes and this is not just a clinical problem it is a scientific gap. #EndometriosisAwarenessMonth #ReproductiveHealth #WomensHealth #MedEd

Watch till the end for the special tributes From 2004 to today the faces have changed, but the fire remains the same. This is a tribute to the incredible women who have been the backbone of this lab for over 20 years. see the evolution of our #LabFamily #womensday #givetogain #WomenInSTEM #iwd2026

Super elated to share our preprint on a new #PlacentaOnChip model that is 1) Scalable, 2) Microfluidics-free & 3) High-throughput capable Proud of the hard work by Anshul and Sourav done in collab with Abhijit at IITB #organonchip #NAMS biorxiv.org/content/10.648…www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...v1

Elated on the publication of my book chapter on spermatogenesis in the prestigious book on Assisted Reproduction by Dr Gautam Allahabadia Big shout out to my co author Indrashsis

2 new studies from the lab show that early pregnancy needs inflammation but only briefly. When uterine inflammation does not activate in time, implantation fails and if prolongs pregnancy is lost. Links doi.org/10.1093/reprod… doi.org/10.1016/j.lfs.��� Super proud of my team

Indias position statement on the use of niPGT for clincial use is published in JHRS and covered by the media #ivf #fertilityclinic #embryo #genetics www.ndtv.com/health/india...

The year 2026 opens with a bang Thrilled to share the publication from the lab showing that an inflammation is essential for embryo implantation #fertility #miscarriage #uterus #infertility www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

The year closes with a key policy paper. India issues its position statement on non-invasive PGT (niPGT). Based on available data of 3000 embryos an expert review panel concludes that niPGT is not ready for clinical use for embryo selection. journals.lww.com/jhrs/fulltex...

Techniques, methods papers and software papers are bound to be higher on scoreboards and there are no prizes for guessing that. For which direction the science is moving .. ideal would be to look at highly cited original papers and look at field normalised citations. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Organ on chip require close coordination of engineers & biologists. Discussed the evolution of this collaboration leding to placenta on chip development with Prof Abhijit Majumder at IIT B. Keeping attention of engeneering and getting them interested in biological nuances is a challange but exciting

I hate mondsys to begin with but the end of the day is satisfying as I spend the rest of the day looking the work done by my labmates and help them to make the plan for the comming week.
