Remembering Prof. G. N. Ramachandran on his 104th birth anniversary A pioneer of structural biology, he proposed the triple-helix structure of collagen and co-developed the Ramachandran Plot, which is still used worldwide to understand and validate protein structures. His work laid the foundation for molecular biophysics in India and continues to shape modern biology and drug discovery. Celebrating a visionary who changed how we see the molecules of life.
