KEAM 2020 eligibility criteria for BArch admission changed, candidates just need passing marks in PCM

-

The Council of Architecture has revised the eligibility criteria this year for admission to the BArch courses. Candidates seeking admission this academic year will just need passing marks in PCM subjects unlike the norm of getting at least 50 percent marks.

The decision has been taken by authorities for only this academic year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The notice by KEAM mentioned that the Commissioner for Entrance Examinations has recommended making the necessary change in the clause of KEAM 2020 prospectus.

Those seeking admission to the BArch programme this year should have passed in 10+2 scheme of exam with PCM (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics) subjects or have cleared 10+3 diploma exams with Mathematics.

KEAM BArch admission 2020 is based on the performance of students in NATA 2020 and qualifying exam. There was no separate entrance exam conducted for KEAM BArch.

A report said that equal weightage is given to the marks obtained by students in NATA examinations and in the qualifying examinations. The counselling process for KEAM 2020 will be conducted online through a Centralised Allotment Process. Shortlisted candidates will have to appear for counselling and seat allotment process. Students will be allotted seats on the basis of availability and the choices entered in the application.

At the time of counselling candidates will be required to provide documents for verification. After the seat is allotted to a candidate, he/she will be required to pay a fee to confirm it. The seats that will not be accepted by the candidates will be allotted in the subsequent round KEAM BArch counseling.

Both COVID-19 vaccine doses needed for good protection against B16172 variant

-
It’s been a concerning few weeks in the UK, with the B16172 variant first taking hold and then spreading to become dominant. This more infectious form of the virus, initially identified in India, is what we’re now going to have to live with – unless it is out-competed by another variant in the future. Worryingly, experts had predicted that B16172 might be able to escape some of the effects of vaccines, which if true would threaten to derail the UK’s plans to finish lifting restrictions from the end of June. However, Public Health England (PHE) has looked at the ability of various variants to evade immunity and says that the UK’s vaccines remain effective against the variants circulating, including B16172. On the surface, this looks like good news. But delve a bit deeper, and things get more complicated, says Paul Hunter, professor of medicine at the University of East Anglia. PHE’s research found a little drop-off in protection against B16172 among people who were fully vaccinated.

New coronavirus variant emerge in India: How should our COVID response change?

-

After genome sequencing of over 10,000 COVID-19 cases in India, researchers have discovered a new variant with two new mutations which may be better at evading the immune system. In 15-20 percent of samples from the Indian state of Maharashtra (the state accounting for 62 percent of cases in the country) a new, double mutation in key areas of the virus has been detected. These are now known as the E484Q and L452R mutations. What makes the variant different? Both these mutations are concerning because they are located in a key portion of the virus – the spike protein – that it uses to penetrate human cells. Spike proteins attach via a “receptor binding domain”, meaning the virus can attach to receptors in our cells. These new mutations include changes to the spike protein that make it a “better fit” for human cells. This means the virus can gain entry more easily and multiply faster. Given what we have seen with other similar mutations , it might also make it harder for our immu

Aditya L1 Mission: Spacecraft is nearing its final phase, says ISRO chief

-
Aditya L1 spacecraft is nearing its final phase, and manoeuvres to enter the L1 point are expected to be completed by January 7, 2024, according to ISRO Chairman S Somanath. “Aditya is on the way. I think it has reached almost its final phase,” the ISRO chief told PTI on the sidelines of an event organised at VSSC to commemorate the 60th year of the First Sounding Rocket Launch. Aditya L1, India’s first space-based mission to study the Sun, was successfully launched on September 2 from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) in Sriharikota. The spacecraft, after travelling about 1.5 million km from Earth over 125 days, is expected to be placed in a Halo orbit around the Lagrangian point L1, considered closest to the Sun. He said that the last preparations for the spacecraft’s entry into the L1 point are currently underway incrementally.”Possibly by January 7th, the final manoeuvres will be done for entering into the L1 point,” Somanath added. Among other tasks, it will capture and tr
