The Institutional Biotech Hub of Namrup College successfully conducted a two-day online workshop on "Use of Bioinformatics and Basics of computer-aided Drug Designing" on 27th and 28th June 2024. The aim of this workshop is to empower students, research scholars, and faculty members in Biological Sciences to enhance their potential in their respective areas of work.
To fulfill the basic needs in this promising area of bioinformatics, we designed a two-day program schedule. We invited renowned educator Dr. Pankaj Chetia, who is an Associate Professor in the Department of Life Sciences at Dibrugarh University, Assam. Dr. Chetia is currently engaged in research in the field of drug designing and is an expert in this field. We extend our deep gratitude to Dr. Chetia for dedicating his valuable time to the participants on behalf of our institution.
During this two-day program, the first day featured an inaugural session inaugurated by Dr. Durga Prasad Gogoi, Principal of Namrup College, who delivered a visionary speech on the technologically assisted discipline of Bioinformatics. He encouraged the participants and sought their full engagement until the end of the session.
We received a long list of participants from across the country, including students, teaching faculty, and research scholars. We sincerely thank all the participants for their involvement; without their presence, the entire program would have been incomplete.
The program was hosted by Miss Shewta Burdhan, Technical Assistant of the Institutional Biotech Hub, with assistance from Mr. Samiron Bhuyan, LA, who supported the organizing team. The vote of thanks was offered by Mr. Sajidur Rahman, Assistant Professor of Zoology at Namrup College.
The Principal Investigator, Dr. Jayanta Sonowal, was pleased to learn that the entire two-day program was successfully completed and that the participants were motivated.
