ARSDC Dean on industrial skills for core placements
SRM – Amara Raja Center for Energy Storage Devices is organising an outreach programme on July 22, 2021, Thursday at 4.00 pm. Mr K.V Ravi Kumar, Amara Raja Skill Development Centre (ARSDC) will deliver a lecture on the topic “Industrial Skills for Core Placements: Trends and Opportunities”. Prof D Narayana Rao, Pro-Vice-Chancellor of SRM University-AP will inaugurate the session with his presence and thought-provoking oration.
SRM – Amara Raja Centre is established to design and develop low-cost, fast-charging, next-generation Lithium-ion battery innovations for smarter E-mobility in collaboration with Amara Raja Batteries Ltd. (ARBL), in India. ARSDC is a government-approved training program under National Apprenticeship Promotion Scheme (NAPS). Mr Ravi Kumar will give an overview regarding skill development activities at ARSDC and how the works of the centre can facilitate B.Tech graduates.
The specific topics that will be covered in the talk are (i) The skills required to get campus placement, (ii) Skill development importance, (iii) 5Ws & 1H of skill development, (iv) ASK (Attitude, Skill, Knowledge) principle, and (v) About ARSDC (http://www.arsdc.co.in/). Dr Sujith Kalluri from the Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering is the coordinator of the event.
All are encouraged to attend this engaging outreach programme on July 22, 2021, at 4.00 pm.

Insights into communication systems @ ECE Department
The Department of Electrical and Communication Engineering (ECE) at SRM University-AP is organising a webinar session on the topic “Insights into Communication Systems @ ECE Department SRM AP” on July 31, 2021, Saturday, at 6.00 pm. Dr V Udaya Sankar, Assistant Professor from the department will elucidate on the topic via the Zoom platform.
The Department of ECE fosters Future Communication Systems (FCS) research group which is actively involved in the theoretical and practical facets of communications systems and networks. The impact of such systems is of greater importance in the information-driven world in both the near and long term future. This research group spans the various aspects of communication & information theory, wireless communications, signal and image processing, wireless sensor networks, vehicular communications, Artificial Intelligence & machine learning, game theory & optimization, IoT etc.
Join this engaging webinar on July 31, 2021, to know more about the ECE department at SRM University-AP that focuses on applying the theoretical concepts to the practical applications in cellular communications, defence, satellite, consumer electronics, health care, remote sensing and the environment.

CSIR-CCMB chief scientist talks in the Biological Sciences webinar
The latest episode of the webinar series conducted by the Department of Biological Sciences in SRM University-AP is scheduled for July 31, 2021, at 11.00 am. Dr Rajan Sankaranarayanan, Chief Scientist at CSIR-Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB) will give a lecture on the topic “X-ray vision on ‘Chiral Checkpoints’ during protein biosynthesis” in the session. Faculty and research scholars from the department will join the speaker on the panel.
Protein chains contain only l-amino acids, with the exception of the achiral glycine, making the chains homochiral. This homochirality is a prerequisite for proper protein folding and, hence, normal cellular function. As a scientist, Dr Sankaranarayanan comprehensively reviews d-amino acids with respect to their occurrence and physiological roles, implications for chiral checkpoints required for translation fidelity, and potential use in synthetic biology. He has co-authored and published a research paper titled “Chiral checkpoints during protein biosynthesis” in the “Journal of Biological Chemistry”.
Read the full paper here:https://doi.org/10.1074/jbc.rev119.008166
About the Speaker:
Dr Rajan Sankaranarayanan obtained Bachelors and Masters in Physics from Madurai Kamaraj University and his PhD from the Molecular Biophysics Unit, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore in 1996. He was a postdoctoral research fellow at IGBMC, Strasbourg, France from 1996-2002. Dr Sankaranarayanan, after returning to India in 2002, has set up a state-of-the-art macromolecular crystallography laboratory and is carrying out research in the field of Structural Biology. From CCMB, his group has made outstanding contributions in the area of proofreading during protein biosynthesis. He was awarded the prestigious Wellcome Trust International Senior Research Fellowship, UK in 2003, Swarnajayanthi fellowship of the DST, India in 2005-2006, National Bioscience Award of DBT in 2008, Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar award in 2011, GN Ramachandran Gold Medal in 2015 and Infosys Science Prize in 2020. He is an Associate Editor of Journal of Structural Biology and Board of Reviewing Editor of the journal eLife. He is also a fellow of all the three major science academies of the country.
Join this free informative webinar on July 31, 2021, 11.00 am onwards to gain research insights from the field expert.
