🔍 Is low-sodium salt accessible in your neighborhood?
Our Chennai survey says:
🛒 52% of supermarkets/hypermarkets had it
🏪 Only 4% of local grocery stores did!
It is time to improve access to healthier choices.
Support the #PinchForAChange movement 💙

Thanks @utejonmayamTOI for the coverage. Just to add, the model was developed with @drumaram_ram and Leelavati Narlikar, both quoted in the article and are equal last authors; and Chandrani Kumari (former IMSc PhD student, first author) and Gautam Menon. Published in late 2024.
An ML model developed by @IMScChennai researchers can now predict birth weight of babies earlier during pregnancy by using ultrasound scans. The technique may become a calculator or be incorporated in ultrasound machines @EduMinOfIndia @IndiaBARC @CSIR_IND @ICMRDELHI @PMOIndia
