BRIC 1st Foundation Day
The Biotechnology Research and Innovation Council (BRIC) Society held its Annual General Meeting on December 12, 2024, at the Department of Biotechnology (DBT). The event was graced by the presence of Dr. Jitendra Singh, Hon’ble Minister of Science & Technology (Union MoS, Independent Charge). During the meeting, the First Annual Report of BRIC 2024, the i3c BRIC-RCB-PhD Programme Brochure, and the latest edition of BRIC News were officially launched, highlighting the Council's achievements and future vision.
#OneDayOneGenome
Rising #AMR in E. coli threatens public health. @THSTIFaridabad sequenced uropathogenic strains & found resistance genes (ARGs). Knowing ARGs can help clinicians prescribe better antibiotics.
