Regeneration is a natural process that gets activated upon injury and helps reorganize the lost body parts so that it regains their full functionality. At the cellular level, one of many intriguing questions to ask is how ...
Conjugation Mediated Bacterial Genome Mixing (CoMBacGeMi) is a technique developed to enable the exchange of genetic material between bacterial strains, in a manner that simulates the process occurring in the wild. CoMBacGeMi ...
SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, has infected millions of lives worldwide, causing a significant number of deaths. Despite the development of several drugs and vaccines, the emergence of new ...
One of the most traditional C-H activation reaction, Fujiwara-Moritani reaction requires stoichiometric metal oxidant. Electro-organic chemistry provides a greener alternative, where electron is used as the redox equivalent. ...
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 ...
Plants along with all other organisms play a vital role in the ecosystem. However unlike birds
or animals, they cannot move. To save themselves from their predators, plants evolved various
strategies. Various strategies ...
This thesis presents a framework for understanding moral responsibility in the context of climate change. After reviewing existing literature on responsibility, the author argues for a forward-looking approach that takes ...
In this thesis, I study an inverse boundary value problem in two dimensions for a polyharmonic operator of the form
\begin{equation*}
\mathcal{L} = \partial^{m}\bar{\partial}^{m} + \sum_{j,k = 0}^{m-1}{A_{j,k}\parti ...
Most of our understanding of human embryonic development is limited by technical and ethical difficulties in acquiring samples and mainly relies on comparative studies in mice and other higher mammals. Although this approach ...
Over the last few decades, E. coli cells have been increasingly used in industrial biotechnology to produce products of high economic value. This includes enzymes, therapeutics, and dietary supplements. However, currently ...
Malaria is one of the world's deadliest diseases, with India being a prominent hotspot for malaria. According to WHO, 77% of the cases are reported from Southeast Asia. Malaria therapy must begin with an accurate and timely ...
Several research papers have predicted the existence of azeotropic clusters. Our motivation was to validate this prediction by simulating and observing azeotropic behaviour in vapour-liquid equilibrium. To achieve this, ...
The long-term approach to reduce the harmful environmental effects of plastic pollution, as illustrated by the marine accumulation of inert microplastics, includes the 11 development of biodegradable plastics (1,2). ...
