Scientists at CCMB Hyderabad discovered that protein SPIN90, working with Arp2/3, drives actin filament growth crucial for cell movement. The breakthrough, published in Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, offers insights into health and disease

AIC-CCMB, in collaboration with the Department of Biotechnology, is organising a specialised workshop on ICE Cloud, a container-based computing platform tailored for life sciences research. The event is being held at CCMB Annex, Hyderabad on September 24.

In a collaborative breakthrough, scientists from Hyderabad's CCMB and IISER Kolkata have developed metal-based compounds capable of selectively targeting and destroying triple-negative breast cancer cells. The discovery marks a significant step in developing treatments for aggressive and treatment-resistant forms of breast cancer.

A breakthrough study from Hyderabad’s CCMB has revealed a novel cell mechanism, dubbed "Programmed Cell Revival", that enables damaged cells to recover and regenerate tissues in various organisms.

As part of the Kalpana She for STEM initiative, 94 girl students and 47 faculty members from 47 Telangana government colleges visited leading research institutes CCMB and TIFR. The program, run in collaboration with three state welfare societies, aims to encourage young women to pursue STEM careers.

A research team led by Dr. Manjula Reddy at Hyderabad’s Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB) has discovered a crucial proofreading mechanism in bacteria that helps maintain the strength of their cell walls.

Hyderabad-based CCMB and AcSIR scientists have shown through mice studies that Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) can reset the brain, improve depression-like symptoms, and balance brain chemicals. Their findings aim to help reduce fear and stigma around ECT in mental health care

The Zoo Advisory Committee, which met here on Saturday, recommended construction of the Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality (AR/VR) - based interpretation centres to enhance visitors’ engagement through immersive wildlife learning experience at the zoo

A decomposed carcass, possibly a tiger, was found in Yellur village, Kumram Bheem Asifabad. If confirmed, it’s the third tiger death in 17 months, highlighting ongoing poaching issues despite conservation efforts

Apart from climate change, anthropogenic factors, meaning human activities like habitat destruction, pollution, hunting etc, may or may not have played a role in the drop of the population of the primate species

Instead of traditional gene mapping, they are utilising Optical Genome Mapping, a technique which captures the entire DNA structure and gives a complete map (or picture) of the genome

The CCMB researchers said that forensic genetic evidence is a powerful tool to secure convictions in wildlife crimes.

Hyderabad-based Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB) is calling for applications from interested students for its "CCMB-Young Innovators Program" for school students of classes VIII to X.

Dr N Kalaiselvi, Director-General, Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), who was the Guest of Honor, inaugurated the auditorium complex, which is a three-floored complex with a 300-seater auditorium, a 100-seater lecture hall and 2 smaller 25-seater lecture halls.

The overall breast cancer genomic atlas is seeking to create India-specific cancer genomic resources and in the process find actionable molecular features of clinical significance, senior scientists from CCMB said.

He shared his vision for promoting startups to attract investments and create employment opportunities in Telangana, explaining that the establishment of T-Hub was rooted in the belief that equipping young talent with the right financial resources would result in significant achievements.

ISBACON 2024 has been a significant platform for fostering innovation and entrepreneurship, bringing together thought leaders, innovators, and stakeholders from various sectors.

The institute today opened its gates to all members of public to walk in, interact with their scientists and understand their research in biology.
