We are accepting our first cohort of undergraduate students in October 2021, at the heart of Bengaluru—a vibrant metropolis and hub of research, technology, art and enterprise in India. Courses will be offered as full-time immersive modules in one-to-three-week formats, with students learning fundamentals in the context of real-world problems. Students will take courses sequentially and complete an entire course before moving on to the next course. First year courses will be common to all incoming students and will emphasize foundational skills in ethics, social science, inquiry, mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology and computation, to prepare the students to choose and specialize in the majors of their choice after the first year.

Each role is described in greater detail below.
This is one of the research projects that you will initially work on. We (Dr. Gnaneshwar Yadav, NCBS and Dr. Saurabh Mahajan, Atria University) are interested in unravelling the role played by ribosomal landscapes in the translational control of neuronal disease targets and biomarkers. The bioinformatics part of the work will be led by Saurabh Mahajan at Atria University. In the current project, we wish to immediately map the evolutionarily conserved ribosomal features relevant to neurological diseases by using corresponding DNA and RNA sequence information. This work shall subsequently complement our preclinical efforts in relevant animal models to test potential interventions in neurological diseases. We are looking for a research assistant who will contribute to design, implementation, and documentation of the project. The work will be in the remote mode until the situation is safe to work from campus(Atria University).
