SUMMARY:Bridging Tomorrow: Nurturing Talent\, Shaping Futures
DESCRIPTION:Context- The synergy between academia and industry is vital for addressing contemporary challenges\, driving progress\, and ensuring that the workforce is well-prepared for the demands of the future. Academia and industry together can only help shape the next generation of professionals. While industry can provide input on the skills and attributes they seek in graduates\, it is  academia that can tailor education to meet those very needs. Ashoka University is proud to nurture and mentor the next generation of responsible leaders for India and the world. In our ongoing commitment to further these endeavors\, we are delighted to extend an invitation to organizations for a unique event—- thoughtfully designed to bridge the divide between academia and industry.  \nGoal of the event:  This conference intends to bring together thought leaders\, industry leaders\, HR fraternity\, and other stakeholders for a substantive dialogue with Ashoka University’s founders\, career development team\, and faculty to delve into deeper modes of engagement between academia and industry.  Knowledge sharing\, talent development\, and collaborative problem solving form the core focus areas for the event. \nEvent Highlights: \n\nGain insights into shifts in hiring strategies to optimize business outcomes\nContribution of industry in making the young generation career-ready\n\nSessions: \n\nHolistic Models of Hiring: Shaping the Future of Work/The Transformational Power and Potential Bias of AI in Hiring\nBeyond B-Schools: The Advantages of Hiring Liberal Arts Graduates

SUMMARY:Organelle adaptation in skin cell differentiation and barrier development.
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  \nIntracellular organelles support cellular physiology in diverse tissue microenvironments. Broadly\, my current research focus is to understand the role of tissue-specific modulation of intracellular organelles in physiology and their alteration in disease. My recent work emphasizes convergent modulation of the organelles of endocytic and secretory pathways with the generation of a new class of secretory lysosomes during skin epidermis development. Skin epidermis facilitates organismal living through its unique barrier\, immune and sensory functions\, and regenerative potential. Failure in skin regeneration in chronic wounds and in cancer is associated with multi-organ failure. I will emphasize my current findings on the promising roles of the Endo-lysosomal pathway in skin epidermis development and its implications in skin hydration\, pathologies\, and regeneration.  \nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Sarmistha Mahanty has been working as an India Alliance Early Career Fellow at the Indian Institute of Science\, Bengaluru\, since 2019 and as a visiting researcher at Institut Curie\, France\, since Nov 2021. She is a cell biologist\, and her research aims to understand how the intracellular organelles adapt to tissue-specific microenvironments\, achieving homeostasis and their alterations in pathological conditions. Currently\, she is studying skin homeostasis with respect to a special class of organelle called skin lamellar bodies that are produced by differentiated skin keratinocytes. With respect to these organelles\, her future studies will be directed toward a detailed understanding of skin immunoregulation and inflammatory skin diseases\, for instance\, psoriasis and vitiligo.

SUMMARY:Inclusion of disability within the campus.
DESCRIPTION:Office of Learning Support strives to make the spaces within campus accessible and raise awareness about disabilities. On January 18th\, the Resident Assistant Coordinators invited the OLS  to host a session on the inclusion of disability within the campus. This interactive session took place to understand the experiences of Resident Assistants (RAs) working with students with disabilities in the academic year so far. Given that RAs play a crucial role in shaping campus life experiences and culture\, the session aimed to equip RAs with the ability to build an inclusive and accessible community within the campus. \n  \nBased on their feedback and questions\, the OLS team worked with the RAs to understand and develop ways to make events more accessible. As events are an integral part of the Ashokan community and the RA programme; It becomes important to make them accessible as it helps build an integrated and inclusive community. The OLS team helped the RAs understand how they can utilize the principles of Universal Design while planning their events through an activity. The RAs came up with creative ways in which they could incorporate it into their event planning. The intention was to convey the importance of approaching accessibility as a proactive and integral part of the planning process\, rather than treating it as an afterthought.
