Biography

University of Pune

Dipshikha Chakravortty was born in 1968atJabalpur,in the second largest Indian state ofMadhya Pradeshto Santosh Kumar Chakravortty and Bani Chakravortty.Her early schooling was in Mumbai where the family had moved soon after her birth. After earning a bachelor's degree inmicrobiologyfrom LAD College for Women ofRashtrasant Tukadoji Maharaj Nagpur University,and a master's degree in microbiology from the University of Nagpur. She did her doctoral studies, assisted by junior and senior research fellowships, under the guidance of K. S. Nandakumar at theNational Centre for Cell Sciencewhich secured her a Ph.D. fromSavitribai Phule Pune University.Thereafter, she moved to Japan for her post-doctoral studies and completed it under the supervision of Takashi Yokochi ofAichi Medical University.Subsequently, she took up a research position at the laboratory of Michael Hensel inErlangen,Germany, and worked there on anAlexander von Humboldt fellowship.On her return to India in 2004, she joined the Department of Microbiology and Cell Biology of theIndian Institute of Science(IISc) as a faculty,where she holds the position of a professor.At IISc, she has established her laboratory,Molecular Pathogenesis Laband hosts a number of researchers and scholars.

Chakravortty resides at IISc Campus, inBengaluru,Karnataka.

Professional profile

Salmonella.

Chakravortty's research focus is onantibacterial resistancewith special emphasis onSalmonellaand she is known to have done work on thepathogenesisofSalmonella Typhimurium,agram negative bacteriumpathogen.Her laboratory works on diseases such asTyphoid,and the host-pathogen interaction with regard to the disease, with a view to develop a vaccine with a long-time memory against the pathogen.The team led by her has been successful in developing a treatment protocol forsepsiswhich uses aBactericidal/permeability-increasing protein,a type ofglycoprotein,which has been found to neutralize the bacterialendotoxin,one of the primary causative factors ofsepsis.Her studies have been documented by way of a number of articlesandResearchGate,an online repository of scientific articles has listed 169 of them.Besides, she has contributed chapters to books edited by others.She has also mentored many research scholars in their doctoral studies.

Dipshikha Chakravortty was a Hostel Chair during the critical time of the Covid Pandemic from 2019 to 2021 Jan, during which she along with the team established the Student isolation center and took care of more than 4500 students. Personally, she has taken care of them and nurtured their mental well-being during this critical phase. Her mentorship skills lead the young students from her group to take up various leading positions in institutes and other Universities, including IISc. Apart from taking care of students from Biological Sciences, she also took care of students across the division. During Dipshikha’s tenure as a Hostel Chair, she has been subjected to the harsh reality of Covid in the hostel. It is then that she created a group “Cheers in Quarantine” where all the students who got into isolation were taken care of and kept entertained by keeping their morale high. During that time she conducted various online musical evenings and fun time, so that everybody is in good spirits. Her extreme dedication and love for the students got her the nickname “Mother India”. One of her poems which she wrote and read during one of the online evenings,

Feverish, headache, body ache
No smell, no taste, all taste same
Nose got Dugged and throat got swabbed
Went to the lab to get it cracked
Sitting in the room and spending time
Where 1 sec seems 1 year
Tring Tring Tring, rang the phone
Heart raced fast and mind went blank
Positive, Negative, Positive, Negative
Finally announced Positive
Pack your bags and take your essentials
Wondering what went wrong
Wore mask and used sanitizers
Where did I go wrong, What did I do wrong
Virus tricked every way
Got inside and pave its way
14 days of Quarantine will make it go away
Not to Worry
CHEERS IN QUARANTINE
Prof Dipshikha Chakravortty, also wrote a preface for the Book with a beautiful piece composed by her
RIGHT TO LIVE
We are tiny We are small
You need microscope to see us all
Still we are mighty and will kill you all
Give us stress, Give us pain
Still your efforts will go in vain
We are community, strong and high
Treat us with respect and we will treat you right
We were not bad, but you made us so
We will become worse if you continue to do so
Hold back and keep quiet
We will be in harmony throughout our life!
( REF- Preface By Dipshikha Chakravortty for the Book-Resistance- Tales from post-antibiotic world, 2019)
