DIRECT SCIENCES: SOLVING PROBLEMS THROUGH SCIENTIFIC NETWORKING

The past few decades have witnessed tremendous progress in the field of biotechnology. These advancements have enabled biotechnologists to develop crops with desirable traits, produce preventive vaccines for humans and livestock, design more effective drugs to cure diseases, synthesize industrially attractive products, and solve environmental as well as energy problems. Thus, biotechnology has provided a proper platform for addressing all problems related to health, agriculture, environment, industry and energy. This conference will provide a unique opportunity to bring together researchers/leaders in the field of biotechnology from across the country to share their ideas and showcase their research work to a wider audience consisting mostly of young researchers and students.Major problems faced at the national level pertaining to the field of biotechnology will be highlighted and the ways how to solve these problems will be discussed.

Scarcity and misuse of fresh water pose a serious and growing threat to sustainable development and protection of the environment under the umbrella of COP22. The climatic impact on ecosystems is leading to; water scarcity, resources paucity, food security and disaster repercussions. This conference has the objective to mobilize and ensure the engagement of; academia, businesses, R&D organizations, researchers, industry, international development entities, experts as well as the civil society by placing a common platform to put forward best efforts to strengthen the ecosystem. The Conference participants will chalk out fundamental new approaches to the; assessment, trends, research findings and development and management of freshwater resources and disaster reductions strategies in context with Climate Change phenomenon which can only be brought through political commitment and involvement from the highest levels of the stakeholders.
