About e-REFRESHER COURSE
Indian ecosystem was known to be most serine, sublime and full of blessings of Nature. The entire biosphere of India was driven by the ancient researchers, scientists who had contributed their efforts in life science and souls like Dr. Har Gobind Khorana, awarded Nobel Prize in Medicine, 1968 for researching over 'Genetic Code and Functions in Protein Synthesis', with this in series more contributions were added from India from past few decades. Since from last 10 years, India is gaining prominence as a partner of choice in bilateral cooperation in this field. India is emerging as a Biotechnology Hub in novel biopharmaceuticals production including novel vaccines and antibiotics. Vaccines manufactured in India is procured in large quantities internationally. Domestic companies have developed strong capabilities in vaccine development. The biotechnology industry in India, comprising about 800 companies, is expected to be valued at US$ 11.6 billion in 2017. The government has to invest US$ 5 billion to develop human capital, infrastructure and research initiatives if it is to realize the dream of growing the sector into a US$ 100 billion industry by 2025, as per Ministry of Science and Technology, Govt. of India. In India, Department of Biotechnology (DBT) a governmental body which is separately stands to recognize and affiliate all projects and grants to various researchers and academicians to inspire, innovate and engage with scientific community. India has become a Pioneer in the field of Biotechnology Research and development and incorporating novel technology for climate resilient crops, regenerative medicines, novel vaccines, antibiotics, probiotics and functional foods, future biofuels, industrial enzymes, rapid diagnostics of infectious diseases, novel immunity booster products and bioprocessing & bioprospecting by adopting advanced biotechnologies such as next generation sequencing technology, gene editing methods and specific genetic engineering techniques. Now, we are well aware about sustainable exploitation of genetic biodiversity present in the Indian subcontinent..
