Dr Sushila Kataria from Medanta, Gurugram, explains how the Delta and Omicron variants of the Coronavirus differ, and how identifying the right strain early can benefit the treatment protocol.

Molecular biologist and founder of IISc-incubated startup Azooka Life Sciences, Dr Fathima Benazir of Bengaluru used kitchen staples to develop 'tinto rang' - a non-toxic and low-cost dye that could be a game-changer for diagnostic tests.
