Yoga is an ancient Indian practice that combines physical, mental, and spiritual disciplines to achieve harmony of the body and mind. There are four main streams of yoga: karma yoga focuses on selfless service, bhakti yoga emphasizes devotion, raja yoga concentrates on meditation, and jnana yoga centers around wisdom. Key components of yoga include asanas (physical postures), pranayama (breathing techniques), and meditation. Common asanas described in the document include uttanasana, ardha chakrasana, and simhasana. Pranayama techniques like anuloma viloma, sheethali, and bhramari are beneficial for relaxation, cooling the body, and improving memory

Ayurveda is the science of life. It plays an important role to prevent and treat the disease. Ayurveda specifically deals with mind body balance. The main part of it is Yoga and Asana. Yoga provide us a simple remedies, facile skills and procedure of good health. Asana gives physical and mental power and tone the body mind for further exercise. Bhujangasana is often referred to as the Cobra Pose. This Yoga Asana helps tones the abdomen and strengthen the spine. One of the main benefits of Bhujangasana is that it helps to improve blood circulation. Snake pose in Yoga is considered one of the best Asanas to get a flat stomach. Bhujangasana benefits are extended to your beauty because of the stretching of the abdominal muscles. Dr. Jyoti Gangwal | Dr. Sanjay Kholiya | Dr. Vikash Bhatnagar | Dr. Sandeep M.

Richard's entangled aventures in wonderlandRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.
Seminar of U.V. Spectroscopy by SAMIR PANDASAMIR PANDA
Spectroscopy is a branch of science dealing the study of interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter.

Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy is an analytical method that can measure the amount of light received by the analyte.
Introduction:
RNA interference (RNAi) or Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing (PTGS) is an important biological process for modulating eukaryotic gene expression.
It is highly conserved process of posttranscriptional gene silencing by which double stranded RNA (dsRNA) causes sequence-specific degradation of mRNA sequences.
dsRNA-induced gene silencing (RNAi) is reported in a wide range of eukaryotes ranging from worms, insects, mammals and plants.
This process mediates resistance to both endogenous parasitic and exogenous pathogenic nucleic acids, and regulates the expression of protein-coding genes.
What are small ncRNAs?
micro RNA (miRNA)
short interfering RNA (siRNA)
Properties of small non-coding RNA:
Involved in silencing mRNA transcripts.
Called “small” because they are usually only about 21-24 nucleotides long.
Synthesized by first cutting up longer precursor sequences (like the 61nt one that Lee discovered).
Silence an mRNA by base pairing with some sequence on the mRNA.
Discovery of siRNA?
The first small RNA:
In 1993 Rosalind Lee (Victor Ambros lab) was studying a non- coding gene in C. elegans, lin-4, that was involved in silencing of another gene, lin-14, at the appropriate time in the
development of the worm C. elegans.
Two small transcripts of lin-4 (22nt and 61nt) were found to be complementary to a sequence in the 3' UTR of lin-14.
Because lin-4 encoded no protein, she deduced that it must be these transcripts that are causing the silencing by RNA-RNA interactions.
Types of RNAi ( non coding RNA)
MiRNA
Length (23-25 nt)
Trans acting
Binds with target MRNA in mismatch
Translation inhibition
Si RNA
Length 21 nt.
Cis acting
Bind with target Mrna in perfect complementary sequence
Piwi-RNA
Length ; 25 to 36 nt.
Expressed in Germ Cells
Regulates trnasposomes activity
MECHANISM OF RNAI:
First the double-stranded RNA teams up with a protein complex named Dicer, which cuts the long RNA into short pieces.
Then another protein complex called RISC (RNA-induced silencing complex) discards one of the two RNA strands.
The RISC-docked, single-stranded RNA then pairs with the homologous mRNA and destroys it.
THE RISC COMPLEX:
RISC is large(>500kD) RNA multi- protein Binding complex which triggers MRNA degradation in response to MRNA
Unwinding of double stranded Si RNA by ATP independent Helicase
Active component of RISC is Ago proteins( ENDONUCLEASE) which cleave target MRNA.
DICER: endonuclease (RNase Family III)
Argonaute: Central Component of the RNA-Induced Silencing Complex (RISC)
One strand of the dsRNA produced by Dicer is retained in the RISC complex in association with Argonaute
ARGONAUTE PROTEIN :
1.PAZ(PIWI/Argonaute/ Zwille)- Recognition of target MRNA
2.PIWI (p-element induced wimpy Testis)- breaks Phosphodiester bond of mRNA.)RNAse H activity.
MiRNA:
The Double-stranded RNAs are naturally produced in eukaryotic cells during development, and they have a key role in regulating gene expression .

(May 29th, 2024) Advancements in Intravital Microscopy- Insights for Preclini...Scintica Instrumentation
Intravital microscopy (IVM) is a powerful tool utilized to study cellular behavior over time and space in vivo. Much of our understanding of cell biology has been accomplished using various in vitro and ex vivo methods; however, these studies do not necessarily reflect the natural dynamics of biological processes. Unlike traditional cell culture or fixed tissue imaging, IVM allows for the ultra-fast high-resolution imaging of cellular processes over time and space and were studied in its natural environment. Real-time visualization of biological processes in the context of an intact organism helps maintain physiological relevance and provide insights into the progression of disease, response to treatments or developmental processes.
In this webinar we give an overview of advanced applications of the IVM system in preclinical research. IVIM technology is a provider of all-in-one intravital microscopy systems and solutions optimized for in vivo imaging of live animal models at sub-micron resolution. The system’s unique features and user-friendly software enables researchers to probe fast dynamic biological processes such as immune cell tracking, cell-cell interaction as well as vascularization and tumor metastasis with exceptional detail. This webinar will also give an overview of IVM being utilized in drug development, offering a view into the intricate interaction between drugs/nanoparticles and tissues in vivo and allows for the evaluation of therapeutic intervention in a variety of tissues and organs. This interdisciplinary collaboration continues to drive the advancements of novel therapeutic strategies.

2. YOGA
The word YOGA has been derived from the Sanskrit word “ YUG” which means to
join or to unite.
Yoga is a mind and body practices with a 5,000 year history in ancient Indian
philosophy.
Various styles of yoga combine physical postures, breathing techniques, and
meditation or relaxation.
Yoga is the stilling of the changing states of mind.
It may have pre-Vedic origins.
Yoga is a complete science of life that originated in India many thousands of years
ago.
3. OBJECTIVES OF YOGIC PRACTICES
To develop a healthy habit and lifestyle in children.
To develop physical, emotional & mental health through yogic activities.
To develop humane values in children.
To develop an understanding of yogic practices.
Yoga is the method of learning that aims to attain the unity of mind, body and
spirit through these three main yoga structures :
1. Exercise (Asana)
2. Breathing ( Pranayama )
3. Meditation ( Dhyana )
5. FOUR STREAMS OF YOGA
1. Karma yoga
( The path of action )
2. Bhakti yoga
( The path of emotions )
3. Raja yoga
( The path of meditation )
4. Jnana yoga
( The path of knowledge )
6. 1. KARMA YOGA
Karma yoga is the path of services; it refers to the energy of action.
Karma yoga practices try to change the action towards the good – good words,
good thoughts, good deeds, in order to change the soul.
Karma yoga involves the dedication of all work as an offering to something or
someone with no thought of personal reward.
Karma yoga can be practiced at all times, under all conditions, anywhere there is
desire to do a selfless services.
7. 2. BHAKTI YOGA
The term bhakti comes from the root ‘Bhaj’ which means to be attached to good.
Bhakti yoga is the devotional approach to yoga, the approach of pure love.
Bhakti yoga rids the yogi of egocentricity by developing humility and self-esteem
surrender.
There is no selfish expectation here.
Types of BHAKTI YOGA :
1. Sakamya yoga
2. Nishkamya yoga
3. Para – bhakti yoga
4. Apara - bhakti yoga
8. 3. RAJA YOGA
Raja means “royal”.
Raja yoga is the path of yoga that focuses on meditation and contemplation.
It is based on the eight limbs of yoga, which was discussed in the yoga sutra.
This yoga path teaches deep self respect through self mastery.
Raja yoga is also referred to as KING OF YOGA.
Raja yoga is the science of controlling modifications of thoughts, continuously rising
in the mind.
It improves clarity of thinking, power of discrimination, efficiency in work, capacity
to take quick decision, mental strength and vigour, which is very essential to
accomplish desired goal in life.
In an effort to control the mind and attain true freedom, Patanjali’s system of yoga
was created an 8 limbed path of self-esteem observation and analysis.
9. 8 LIMBS OF YOGA
1. Yama-What not to do
2. Niyama-What to do on a regularly
3. Asana-Postures and exercises

10. 4. JNANA YOGA
Jnana yoga or the path of knowledge is the shortest but most difficult path for one to
tread.
The path of jnana yoga is to realise that all are but same. This is wisdom or this is
knowledge.
To see all beings ( Living or non- living) on this planet with ‘equal vision’ without any
discrimination is Jnana or the “wisdom”.
The tradition of Jnana yoga teaches, “ Liberation is attained, not by works or
ceremony, but by knowledge
11. ASANA
The term asana is derived from the Sanskrit root “Aas” means “Sit” or “Asi” mean “ To be”.
Asana gives stability and comfort, both at physical and mental level.
Asana may broadly classified into three categories On the basis of formation of our body looks
like:
1. Cultural or Corrective Asana
