Medical Sciences

The workshop includes both interactive learning sessions and hands-on sessions aiming to generate systematic reviews. The workshop will cover the topics, like evidence-based clinical research, developing a protocol for systematic review, critical appraisal and reducing bias, statistical approach for meta-analysis, and reporting & presenting a systematic review.

The Geographic Information System (GIS) workshop is focused on learning by doing, hence helpful for public health practitioners and researchers. The workshop is designed for those who intend to use GIS for their data analysis.

The major goal of this course is to acquaint participants with computational tools for informatics based approaches in modern medicine. The course also aims to provide participants hands- on training in molecular biology techniques (PCR, RFLP, DNA sequencing, real time PCR, Western blotting, ELISA, Flow Cytometry, etc.) for diagnosis and prognosis of various diseases. The participants will also be introduced to research and statistical methodologies.

The Summer Training Programme in Environmental Biotechnology is two weeks long hands-on-training course. Participants of this programme will experience working in a unique academic ambience apt for cutting-edge scientific discourse. The programme focuses on the fundamental wet-lab tools and techniques relevant to environmental biotechnology. Students pursuing post-graduate courses in biological sciences, pharmaceutical sciences and medical sciences are encouraged to apply.

This workshop is valuable for Biology teachers who will interact with research scientists working in different areas of biological sciences. Through this workshop, they will learn ways to connect facts in the textbooks to its importance and application in biological and biomedical research.
