PhD Scholar, Ms Sharayu Magar has been selected for the Academia Sinica Fellowship under the TIGP-X programme. This six-month fellowship with co-advisorship by Dr Chuan Ku at the Institute of Plant and Microbial Biology, will open avenues of global exposure and guidance from faculty and labs abroad enabling her to focus on the evolution of giant viruses. Ms Magar will receive TWD 50,000 per month along with round-trip flight costs.
Barath Sivaraj, a research scholar from the Department of Biological Sciences at SRM University-AP has achieved an outstanding feat by receiving the DST INSPIRE Fellowship, a highly regarded programme sponsored and overseen by the Department of Science & Technology.
Sivaraj’s research focuses on exploring how bacteriophages, a type of virus that infects and reproduces inside bacteria, utilises the bacterial system. This research has earned Sivaraj the Fellowship, which runs for a duration of 5 years. The researcher also gets to carry out his research at any national or international laboratories other than their host institute for a period of 18 months.
