Beyond the DNA Code: The Architecture of Life
What if the DNA sequence is only the beginning of the story?
In this episode of The Next Experiment, the live science podcast by The SciComm Synapse, we explore “Beyond the DNA Code: The Architecture of Life” with Dr. Rakesh Mishra, Director, Tata Institute for Genetics and Society (TIGS), Bengaluru.
DNA is often described as the blueprint of life, but biology is far more intricate than a sequence of letters. How is genetic information organised, interpreted and transformed into the extraordinary complexity of living systems? What happens beyond the DNA sequence—and how do genome organisation, gene regulation, cellular architecture and molecular interactions shape biological function?
In this engaging scientific conversation, Dr. Rakesh Mishra takes us beyond the conventional understanding of genetics to explore the architecture of life, offering insights into how modern biology is redefining our understanding of the genome.
