Delhi University to begin registration process for UG programmes from 2 Aug

-

The Delhi University Saturday said that the admissions to its undergraduate programmes for 2021-22 will begin from 2 August. Like the previous years, the admission for students will take place through cut-offs based on merit and will be conducted completely through online mode.

Candidates should note that the registration for the UG courses will end on 31 August.

Earlier today in a press conference which was led by Chairperson for admissions, Rajeev Gupta asserted that students applying will be selected on merit-based programmes which will be totally based on cut-offs.

"The admission branch is working with principals of colleges on modalities for deciding cut-offs so as to avoid over and under admissions," Gupta said.

Further in the meeting, he also asserted that the change in criteria for evaluation by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is not likely to delay the announcement of Delhi University's cut-offs, as it will remain the same.

Meanwhile, acting Vice-Chancellor PC Joshi also mentioned that registration for postgraduate courses and Delhi University Entrance Test (DUET) will commence on 26 July and end on 21 August. While admissions for MPhil and PhD programmes will follow the same process.

The DU authorities also informed that admissions to Bachelor in Physiotherapy, Bachelor in Occupational Therapy, Bachelor of Prosthetics and Orthotics along with Masters of Physiotherapy will be processed through the recognised DUET exam.

Keeping in mind the convenience of students regarding fee structure amid pandemic, the Chairperson also stated that this year, the eligibility criteria of students for admissions and fee structure will remain the same like the previous year.

The University has further informed that there will be no change in the application fees for merit-based and entrance-based students during admissions. While, centralised undergraduate admissions will be done through one registration-cum-application form.

Also, candidates will not have to fill any other form other than registration-cum-application form for admissions.

Along with these new changes, the Delhi University has decided to make its official admissions website more interactive and hassle free for students.

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
