As all feminist trajectories branch from epistemological intersectionalities, feminist movements in India also find themselves battling a regressive patriarchal force with layered variables. Studying these movements in ...
The peninsular part of the Indian continent (South India) is an important region because of the presence of various geological units. This thesis work focuses on implementing seismic interferometric techniques to ambient ...
The objective of this project is to examine the literature on the pricing of American options in some theoretical market models. The initial motivation was to examine the pricing of American options in a semi-Markov ...
The quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) is a dominant mode of stratospheric circulation characterized by downward propagation of easterly and westerly phases of zonal wind with a periodicity of 26-32 months. Vertically ...
p-adic numbers play an important role in modern number theory. They encode important information about congruences between integers. From rational number, one construct the smallest complete field that contains rational ...
Tissue biomechanics plays an important role in the progression of epidermal tissue dur-
ing the head involution process of Drosophila embryogenesis. Understanding the self-
organizing principles which are controlling the ...
The skin functions as a protective barrier for the body. The epidermis is the outermost layer of the skin and is constantly exposed to wear and tear. Some mutants of zebrafish show balling up of epidermal cells wherein the ...
Protein interaction networks are ubiquitous in the functioning of organisms. Inspired by the work of Leskovec et al. on changes in the resilience of such networks, we observe how quantitative characteristics of protein ...
This work attempts to study the simplest classical model systems
that describe the physics of phase transitions- nearest neighbour Ising models
using neural networks which are often associated with artificial ...
Echolocation is one of the important senses in dolphins that contributes to their
perception of the underwater environment. However, many questions still remain
unanswered with respect to the development of their ...
Mitochondria are energy-generating organelles of the cells – they produce most of the ATP required for various cellular processes. They also have dynamic morphology, and can under fusion and fission, generating structures ...
Cohesins are ring-shaped protein complexes critical for keeping sister-chromatids
together, which are conserved from simple to complex organisms. They are also
important for chromosomal segregation, meiotic recombination ...
Among the three types of diabetes, type 2 diabetes originates from insulin resistance and is closely associated with physical inactivity, excess body weight, and hyperglycemia. Recent studies have shown that oxidative ...
We study the various versions of holographic entanglement entropy formula that has come
out over time. This starts with the Ryu-Takayangi formula which later modified to the HRT
prescription and then the FLM prescription ...
Distinct apico-basal domain identity is achieved in epithelial cells via the presence of
apical microvilli and basolateral surface with adherence junctions. Syncytial cells
in Drosophila embryogenesis display similar ...
This project deals with the analysis of the granted mailbox patent applications in India. The applications which were specifically related to the pharmaceutical product patents and filed during the period from Jan 1995- ...
Mitochondrial morphology and dynamics play a crucial role in epithelial cell formation and maintenance, however the mechanisms by which they affect these processes remains to be completely investigated. Here we have attempted ...
Propagation of spiking activity in networks of neuron is the key to how information is presented in the brain. The precise arrival times of spikes encode different kinds of incoming information. It has been shown that ...
PTEN deletion is a universal mechanism through which a cancer cell inactivates PTEN
activity in order to achieve the ability to proliferate excessively. These PTEN deletions are often accompanied by a deletion of the ...
