Indian, Israel, US researchers developing drug for GNB1 Encephalopathy

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Madras, Tel Aviv University and Columbia University are studying a rare genetic brain disease called "GNB1 Encephalopathy" and trying to develop a drug to treat it effectively. With less than 100 documented cases worldwide, GNB1 Encephalopathy is a kind of brain disease or neurological disorder which affects individuals in the foetus stage. Scientists say delayed physical and mental development, intellectual disabilities, frequent epileptic seizures, are among the early symptoms of the disease and since genome sequencing is an expensive exercise, not many parents opt for it early on. According to Haritha Reddy, a former PhD scholar at IIT Madras, a single nucleotide mutation in the GNB1 gene that makes one of the G-proteins, the "G1 protein," causes this disease. "This mutation affects the patient since they are a foetus.Children born with GNB1 mutation experience mental and physical developmental delay, epilepsy (abnormal

IIT-M unveils '3 GL', a prototype of new driving licensing process

A prototype of a new driver licensing process 3 Gate Licencing (3GL) was launched during the National Scientific Road Safety Conclave organised by the Indian Institute of Technology-Madras (IIT-M) here on Tuesday. The 3GL process measures the behaviour of the driver, his knowledge of road safety and driving habits to practise the learned theory in a simulator and on-road driving conditions before receiving a valid driving licence, IIT Madras said in a press release. "Road safety is getting collaborative with technology. However, each road, each region, city has its own DNA. To create such a scenario in a simulator is the biggest challenge," said director of IIT-M professor V Kamakoti said.
