Tis' the season to teach again!! After a good meandering summer. Our Autumn semester (we call it August semester at @IISc Bangalore) starts tomorrow. I am excited as my advanced sampling course starts Monday! The campus is bubbling with fresh faces too, which is always invigorating.

Srivastava lab have had some nice news this week. First, Harini's work on Glassy Dynamics in Biological Membrane got accepted in Journal of Chemical Physics!! We treated ourselves with Milano Icecream and Waffles on the 80 ft road.

We are excited to have @alexmackerell.bsky.social this month for our Integrative Modeling in Biophysics e-series!! It’s all about polarizable force field next week. #drude Tues March 11, 5:30 PM IST (2:00 CEST, 7:00 AM USET) For details about this series, visit: sites.google.com/view/mbu-inf...

Excited to share what I’ve been working on with @tkaraletsos.bsky.social to transform the field of drug discovery with atomistic foundation simulation models! I could not be more thrilled to be working with this dream team. achira.ai

NEW: Achira has launched with a $33M seed round I talked with CEO @jchodera.bsky.social about plans to combine AI- and physics-based methods for drug discovery and moving beyond 45 years of the same type of models behind molecular dynamics. My latest @endpts.com: endpts.com/achira-raise...
