The project aims to sample 20,000 ethnically diverse Indians from the region for their bodily bacteria from stool, skin, and saliva. This data will provide insight into the varying bacterial colonies in human bodies according to ethnicity and lifestyle. Apart from understanding health and disease in the population, the bacterial samples will also be useful for potentially extracting new drugs to treat illnesses.

His laboratory at NCCS has been involved in research on the structural characterisation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis proteins and the computational analysis of genome-wide protein: protein interactions. Dr. Shekhar Mande did his M.Sc. in Physics from University of Nagpur and holds a doctoral degree in Molecular Biophysics from the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru.

Dr. Shekhar C. Mande, DG CSIR visits CSIR-CBRI, RoorkeeDr. Shekhar C. Mande, Director General, CSIR and Secretary DSIR, reviewed the R&D activities of CSIR-Central Building Research Institute, Roorkee during the visit on December 24, 2018 and encouraged the scientists, staff and students to generate global-level technologies and transfer them to the society.

Dr. N. Gopalakrishnan, Director, CSIR-CBRI welcomed the Director General and said that he is honoured and humbled by his presence and inspiration.

Addressing the gathering, Dr. Shekhar C. Mande acknowledged the glorious history and the contributions of CSIR. An unsung hero of nation's development, CSIR has transformed the nation's socio-economic scene since independence. When India was denied the technologies at the global front, CSIR took on the challenge and generated world-class technologies indigenously; earning world respect and transforming India into the self-reliant tech nation it is today. Continuing into the IP era and understanding the power of knowledge, CSIR built and protected the nation's intellectual wealth, making it the largest IP holder in the country. Now in the age of globalization, CSIR has taken on the challenge to generate knowledge and technologies at the global level.

Elaborating the vision and mission of CSIR, Dr. Mande explained that the organization works on everything in terms of science and technology. Every CSIR lab has a niche and a strong base of excellent scientists who are contributing their

excellence for the society, in the domain of their knowledgebase. CSIR is one of the world's largest publicly-funded R&D organisations contributing in every area of science. It connects academia, researchers, scientists and industry, building an ideal platform for fundamental, societal and translational research. In this regard, Dr. Mande encouraged the scientific staff of CSIR-CBRI to do advanced exploratory research work along with the young researchers. The research should be examined to identify societal impact, compared with existing technologies and analysed for technological readiness. The Institute must then collaborate with the industries to translate such feasible and scalable technologies to fulfil the nation's unmet needs. He discussed several missions undertaken by CSIR to translate the research from lab to land in terms of marketable, value-added technologies.

Dr. Shekhar C. Mande encouraged CSIR-CBRI, Roorkee to work in the direction of Green Technologies. He appreciated the Institute's work in the direction of affordable housing, disaster mitigation, waste to wealth generation and urged to take it forward with a focus on value-added products from regional waste, green development and green technologies. The issues of climate change, environment protection and preservation have been acknowledged at the global level. CSIR as a whole needs to build affordable green technologies to reduce the carbon footprint of the nation, he said.

DNA Fingerprinting and Diagnostics, Hyderabad. In 2011, Dr Mande was appointed as the Director of NCCS, Pune. Dr. Mande has served in various advisory committees for the Government of India.

In 2005, he was awarded the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize for Science and Technology – the most prestigious science award in India – in the category of Biological Sciences. He has been honoured with several other prestigious awards including the B M Birla Young Scientist Award in 1999, and Wellcome Trust International Senior Fellow 2003-08. He has been elected Fellow of all the three major science academies in the country – the Indian National Science Academy (INSA), National Academy of Sciences, India (NASI), and the Indian Academy of Sciences (IAS).

Focusing on the need to bring science to the society, Dr. Mande explained that for larger societal impact, the people need to be aware of the exemplary technologies being developed for the benefit of the masses. This can be achieved through effective science communication. Dr. Mande emphasized on the need of building a talented pool of science journalists and communicators who would bridge the gap between the scientific and non-scientific communities, through modern awareness tools such as print and e-publications, science films, awareness and outreach programmes etc. Dr. Mande also insisted on working closely with academic institutes, state universities, etc. to upgrade the skills of their young researchers from an early age by sharing of appropriate resources, expertise and technical support. He highlighted the success of various

CSIR schemes such as Jigyasa Student-Scientist Connect Programme and Skill Development Programme, to achieve both the goals.

Earlier, Dr. N. Gopalakrishnan, Director, CSIR-CBRI, gave a presentation on the R&D activities, public interactions and novel products developed by the Institute. He presented a brief account of the Institute's facilities, laboratories, ongoing work and CBRI's plan for the years to come. Director General, Dr. Shekhar C. Mande, also met with the Institute scientists and discussed their views on the future roadmap.

On the occasion, Dr. Mande released the latest edition of the quarterly bilingual CBRI Newsletter Bhawnika. A book on “Superiority Features of Indian heritage Structures” and its

website was also launched by Director General, Dr. Shekhar C. Mande.

Dr. Mande also inaugurated the “CSIR-CBRI Construction Technology Demonstration Park for Mass Housing”. The technologies developed by the Institute under rural housing, affordable mass housing, C&D waste management, dry construction, utilization of bamboo in construction etc. were demonstrated through models and technical charts.

CSIR-Central Building Research Institute, Roorkee celebrated the Vigilance Awareness Week with the theme "Eradicate Corruption: Build a New India" during October 29-November 03, 2018. Dr. Suvir Singh, Chief Scientist coordinated Vigilance Awareness Week.

Dr. N. Gopalakrishnan, Director, CSIR-CBRI, Roorkee inaugurated the programme by administrating the Vigilance Oath. The scientists and staff took the pledge to maintain honesty and transparency to work unstintingly for eradication of corruption in all spheres of life, to remain vigilant and work towards the growth and reputation of the organization and through collective efforts, bring pride to the Institute by providing value based service to the nation.

A team from CSIR-CBRI, Roorkee organized Gram Sabhas at village panchayats to spread awareness amongst the villagers, to fight against corruption. In addition, Essay Writing Competition and Poster Competition were organized for the students in Government Higher Secondary School, Beldi and Government Model Primary School, Belda I, Roorkee.

Under the guidance of Dr. Atul Kumar Agarwal, Senior Principal Scientist, Debate Competition and Quiz Competition were organized for the students of class 11. About 200 students from Kendriya Vidhyalaya No. 1, Children's Senior Academy, Greenway Modern Senior Secondary School, Doon Public School and Army Public School No. 2 participated in the programme.

Dr. Atul Kumar Agarwal, Senior Principal Scientist, presented a lecture on “Eradicate Corruption: Build a New India” to sensitise the employees on the issue of corruption. In his lecture, he said that the disease of corruption is spread all over the world, but to fight against corruption, India is far behind other countries. It is disheartening to know that in the fight

stagainst corruption, India ranks at the 81 position in a list of 180 countries and is considered one of the worst offenders in the Asia-Pacific Region. He explained in detail the reasons for the spread of corruption, its bad effects and the laws made for its prevention. He also emphasized on fighting against corruption with unity by bringing transparency and accountability in the work and also mentioned the various rules and laws implemented by the government to achieve the same. He also presented various quotes given by Late Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam and said that corruption is the result of our misguided thoughts and there is no gadget so far to curb it. Corruption is not just bound by the office boundaries it can take place anywhere as it is the result of two corrupt minds. He said that the time has come to restore our values and honour honesty to proves that it is more valuable than a corrupt person's earnings. This will eradicate the termite of corruption in our nation. We have to unite in the fight against corruption just like we did for the polio eradication campaign, he said. Dr. Agrawal also explained the rules and provisions of the Right to Information Act in simple words.

During the Closing Ceremony, posters and slogans made in different competitions during the week were displayed. Dr. S.K.

While presenting a lecture on "Inclusion of Storytelling and Humor to Reduce Monotony for the Development of Scientific Temper", Dr. Atul Kumar Agarwal, Senior Principal Scientist and Jigyasa Programme Coordinator explained the teachers that compared to other subjects science is considered monotonous by the students. Therefore, teachers should try to create vibrancy in the classroom by sharing the scientific jokes and humorous incidents inspired from the lives of eminent scientists. For instance, the story of Newton and the apple is exemplified while explaining the context of gravity. Similarly, students can be motivated by citing fun facts from the life of various eminent scientists. He elaborated on the concept to the teachers by introducing them to some interesting facts related to the life of great scientist Sir Isaac Newton. He informed that Newton was a source of inspiration for Albert Einstein, who kept a picture of Sir Isaac Newton in his study room. Dr. Agarwal shared some interesting facts related to the lives of Albert Einstein, Thomas Alva Edison, Madame Marie Curie etc. with the teachers. He also informed to the teachers about

the glorious history, achievements of CSIR as well as CBRI and the various awareness programmes under Jigyasa Programme to inculcate scientific temper in young minds.

The participants visited the enriched laboratories of CSIR-CBRI and learnt about the innovative work carried out and interacted with the scientists of the Institute. During the visit to the Efficiency of Buildings lab, Scientist Shri C.S. Meena explained the concepts of low speed wind tunnel for ventilation and wind pressure distribution in building, dome type of artificial sky for daylight studies etc to the participants. In the Structural Engineering lab, the participants learnt about the work done by CBRI in the areas of seismic improvement, distress diagnosis and strengthening of heritage structures etc. In the Organic Building Materials lab, Dr. Rajni Lakhani, Group Leader informed the participants about various eco-friendly green building materials such as EPS door shutter, Coir-CNSL board, polytiles, polycem tiles etc. with the help of product samples.
