Building strong India

The exciting science journey on second day at JNU started with presentation by Kiran katoch on "The Problem of TB in India, A Clinicians Perspective". Her speech gave us a clear view about problems in diagnosing TB as well as the current methods and the developing methods in diagnosing TB. After her speech we were gathering information regarding the importance of computational technology in life sciences. Presentation by GPS Raghava, Samik Ghosh and Hiroaki Kitano on bioinformatics threw limelight on computational biology.After having a good lunch, our journey continued with the presentation of work done by IPW team. To get ourselves refreshed IPW team got game for us using cell designer software (sow & grow). Science requires collaboration of information from various disciplines and this was exemplified yesterday. We as TBGOs learnt the basics of cell designer which can be used for our future strategy.

After a number of serious lectures, we had an enjoyable interaction with our PI, our team members and ZT sir. We all got to know about each other and shared our experiences.We had a good dinner and went to YVK eagerly waiting for the dawn to continue our journey.
