Researcher from India and USA, who work to understand the genetic basis of diseases among various ethnic populations from different parts of the world, participated in a workshop organized by CSIR-Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB), Hyderabad. The workshop focussed on understanding genome information in a better way. Improved information on genome can help fine-tune genome-assisted healthcare, and could even lead to precise, personalized, more effective and economical approaches to healthcare.
The three-day workshop, which started on January 16, is being attended by around 200 researchers, many of whom are promising PhD scholars from research institutes, universities, hospitals and life science companies in India and USA. This workshop is arranged by the Indo-US Science and Technology Forum, supported by the Department of Science and Technology, India, and Department of State, USA, with an aim to create fruitful collaborations between the two countries.
