This meeting is scheduled to be held on 12-16 December 2017. The highlighted areas are "Stem cell patterning, light signaling and flowering time control, leaf development and plant pathogen interactions”. 7 international speakers along with 20-25 Indian scientists working on Arabidopsis will deliver talks. This will be attended by other faculty members, PDFs and graduate students with a total of 200 participants are expected.
3rd Orientation Workshop on Lab. Animal Sciences
This one-day event had a total of 6 acclaimed immunologist from India as speakers, nearly 300 student and faculty participants mostly from in and around Bhubaneswar
The Indian Society for Comparative Endocrinology (ISCE) and SBS, NISER jointly organized this workshop. There were 12 participants from all over India and total 30 students participated in the workshop. This 5-day event had 6 speakers from Academia, 4 speakers from Industry who also participated in “hands-on-training sessions” to 3 high-end imaging systems. In addition, Dr. Graham Wright, Head, Microscopy Unit, Institute of Medical Biology (IMB), has also taught during the workshop. Students were taught basics of microscopy, confocal microscopy, live cell imaging, use of imaging to explore the steroid-ion channel cross talk, and imaging the membrane dynamics and exocytosis. Participants were given hands on training in transcardial perfusion, dissection and sectioning of pituitary gland, immunofluorescence, and live cell imaging. This was another exemplary Industry-Academia partnership between NIKON, NISER and Indian Society of Comparative Endocrinology (ISCE)
This 3-day event was conducted in NISER, Bhubaneswar. This event had 6 speakers from Academia, 6 speakers from Industry, 33 student percipients and “hands-on-training sessions” to 3 high-end imaging systems. This was an exemplary Industry-Academia partnership between Olympus and NISER.
A Four day intensive workshop on laboratory animal science was jointly organized by NISER and ILS for research scholars and students involved with research with animals. The objective of this workshop was to prime researchers with basic facts and principles that are essential for the humane use and care of animals. The contents of the workshop also covered the recommendations of the Committee for the purpose of Control and Supervision of Experiment on Animals (CPCSEA).
This 4 day workshop cum 2 day conference had around 15 instructors cum speakers and 40 participants for workshop and 150 participants for the conference. There were 4 international speakers
The meeting was organized on Dec. 13 and 14, 2015 at NISER, Bhubaneswar. Prof. P. Balaram, IISc, Bangalore delivered Prof. K.S. Krishnan Memorial lecture and inaugurated the meeting on Dec. 13. This was followed by the keynote lecture by Prof. Abba J. Kastin, Pennington Biomedical Research Center, Baton Rouge, LA, USA. The plenary talks were delivered by Jackson Bittencourt, University of Sao Paulo, Nishikant Subhedar and Aurnab Ghose, IIER, Pune; Gaiti Hasan and Axel Brockmann, NCBS, Bangalore; Herbet Herzog, Gravan Institute of Medical Research, Darlinghurst, New South Wales, Australia; Soumya Iyengar, NBRC, Manesar, India; Weihong Pan, Pennington Biomedical Research Center, Baton Rouge, LA, USA; Sumit Sarkar, National Center for Toxicological Research, Jefferson, USA. Posters on work carried out by young MS and Ph.D. students were displayed during the meeting. The students had one to one interaction with the scientists in the meeting and received inputs to improve their work further. M.Sc. and PhD students from different parts of the country actively participated in the meeting. The meeting has also provided a platform for the scientists to exchange their ideas and incubate collaborative projects.
