It is envisaged that this conference would not only provide a unique platform to the participants from industries and academic institutions to share their thoughts and views to pave the way to develop possible linkages among them, but also serve the purpose of global networking among them and help in creating a nucleus of interface research.

Conference is aimed to cover genomic information on a wide variety of microorganisms including viruses. This conference also focuses on new technologies are to be developed and improved: functional genomics, proteomics, and bioinformatics as well as more sophisticated experimental genetics, biochemistry, immunology, systems biology, mathematics and physics methods are included in this meeting.   

The Biotech Research Society (BRSI) is an Indian Scientific Academy established in the year 2003 to promote the R & D in biotechnology in India. The BRSI is involved in promoting the interaction between the academic institutes and the biotech industries. The society interacts with the industries and helps them in resolving their problems as well make them aware of the latest developments in the biotech sector. In addition, the society disseminates the knowledge about the recent developments in the field of biotechnology by organizing International symposia and Conferences.
