Teams led by CSIR women scientists report advances in research on depression mechanisms in females

Research teams led by women scientists at the CSIR–Indian Institute of Chemical Technology in Hyderabad are driving advances across various disciplines. They are making significant contributions to indigenous scientific research, including the development of a novel experimental model to study how chronic stress affects the female brain. This model is part of their efforts to uncover the neurobiology of depression in women and develop sustainable biofuels from agricultural waste.
