There is a change in the time! It is at 2PM, not 3PM.
Ragothaman Yennamalli@structbioinfo.bsky.social · 5d agoSuper excited to host and listen to my undergrad bestie and now an author @sudhakaran.bsky.social on Dark Genome at JNU. Date: 19th August 2026 Time: 3PM Drop by and listen to an excellent speaker!

Happy to share our work featured in Nature India: www.nature.com/articles/d44... A colab with ICAR-NDRI, where we ensured that our conclusions are supported by the evidence than breed-specific differences. Ms.Menaka Thambiraja, the PhD student and min author, will defend her thesis on 14 Aug.
Genetic evidence confirms native cattle are healthier than crossbred animals
Indigenous varieties fend off diseases better, research says, suggesting breeders must select for immunity, not just milk.

Super excited to host @venkramaswamy.bsky.social from BITS Pilani, Hyderabad Campus at SCIS, JNU on 17th August 2026 at 11AM. His talk is titled "Unlocking the inner potential of trained, but underperforming Deep Networks via the geometry of their internal representations".
I just saw a meme that said “get in losers, we’re reclaiming the emdash”. People. PEOPLE. Where are your STANDARDS? It CLEARLY should be “get in, losers — we’re reclaiming the em dash.”
On the third day of #ISMB2026, it was inspiring to hear Prof. Partha Majumder's talk on Indian population genomics work. That he ended with Maya Angelou's quote on diversity was apt. Also, two posters from our lab for 3DSIG are up! New work with Shruthi @ncbsbangalore.bsky.social !!!
Ragothaman Yennamalli@structbioinfo.bsky.social · last mo.Today is a big day at #ISMB2026 @iscb.bsky.social for the Yennamalli lab!!! 1. Kishore and Vennila's poster is up on the poster boards! 2. The publication session on "Benchmarking machine learning publications" with five excellent speakers lined up! See y'all in Room 9-10 Combo... Stay tuned!

Ragothaman Yennamalli@structbioinfo.bsky.social · 2mo agoWe are closer to #ISMB2026 happening in 🇺🇸 !!! There are three things to look forward to! @iscb.bsky.social 1. Yennamalli Lab will be presenting our latest work! 2. Our virtual tutorial is on the 6th and 7th! 3. Chairing the publications session!!! Stop by at our posters and session!!!!
That @naomialderman.bsky.social is so fucking brilliant. If you've found yourself falling out the reading habit, she has created a kind of Couch-to-5K of reading open.substack.com/pub/naomiald...
let's do a 'couch to 5k' for reading
we're going to work ourselves back to good 'reading fitness' over the next eight weeks. come and join us.

Excited to host Dr. Dhiraj Bhatia from Department of Biological Sciences and Engineering at IIT Gandhinagar, on 23rd July at the School of Computational and Integrative Sciences at Jawaharlal Nehru University!!!🎉🎉🎉 Really excited to hear the science from his lab!🥰
The pattern in science is that you get stuck in every project. But the reason is not that you're dumb but because you're confronting the unknown. And not giving up does eventually lead to a discovery! Thank you El País for interviewing me about my day science and my night science!
They say if you spot a Nilgai, you cannot escape this campus... I succumbed as well, to the beauty of nature here. So, I am starting my new chapter at my PhD alma mater Jawaharlal Nehru University with a new designation (Assoc. Prof.) and new expectations! Wish me luck! #tenured

🎉🎉🎉 After nearly 16 months of being in peer-review and three rounds of revision, this preprint finally got published!!!🎉🎉🎉 www.nature.com/articles/s41... We have proposed a replicable method for comparative genomics in this paper. PS: This is Suneel's 107th paper, and my 71st!!!
If you are not following @inprep.bsky.social you are missing out good science satire. LOL!!! Made my day! H/T @lianafaye.bsky.social
This is such a beautiful anecdote about Phil. I had the honor of meeting him only once. It was a beautiful encounter and his enthusiasm to encourage ECRs like me, was infectious. His passing was shocking to me. Irreparable void created in Bioinformatics community. RIP Phil!
Dr Andrew Lonsdale@lonsbio.bsky.social · 5mo agoSome background to this, and an example I think of Phil's attitudes towards fostering students and encouraging others. I never got a chance to meet Phil in person, but will share his act of generosity that helped myself and @hdashnow.bsky.social and I think had in indelible mark on our careers. 1/8
🚨🚨🚨Happy to share that our Tutorial proposals got accepted for #ISMB2026 and #ECCB2026!!! Flagship events of @iscb.bsky.social 🎉🎉🎉 Looking forward working with Farzana, Shashank, Meg, and JC. eccb2026.org/tutorials-wo... www.iscb.org/ismb2026/wha...
Today, I am excited to listen to Best of Biophysical Journal symposium!
Ragothaman Yennamalli@structbioinfo.bsky.social · 6mo agoMet Prof. Bob Jernigan, after 15 years! Also met our bioinformatics alumni Jaya Vasavi. Yesterday's posters were super good! Had a good time. Also, it was nice reconnecting with Harpreet Singh from THE Ohio State Univ. We met first in 2012.

Ragothaman Yennamalli@structbioinfo.bsky.social · 6mo agoToday was a great day with a dedicated session on science communication with Jeremy Berg, Holden Thorpe, and Daniel Cohen talking about why scicomm is a must in today's time. Also, my favorite Darwin quote. Met a few friends and other ambassadors as well!!!
