Workshop on Stress Management & Motivation 21 Dec 2016
Department of Biotechnology organized a one day Workshop on “Stress Management, Motivation and Academic Performance” in association with MCKS Yoga Vidya Pranic Healing Foundation, New Delhi. The main purpose of organizing this workshop was to develop the habbit of meditation and concentration in the students. It has been observed that teens at very early stage surround themselves with many negative thoughts which directly and indirectly affect their studies and career. A great initiative has been taken by the MCKS Yoga Vidya Pranic Healing Foundation, New Delhi in which they train the students on how to come out with all negative thoughts and concentrate on studies. The workshop proved to be very beneficial for students and also for the faculty members. Special thanks to our B.Sc Biotech III year students Ayushi Singhal and Shruti Sharma for taking initiative and organizing the workshop as an active member of the Pranic Healing Foundation.

Seminar cum workshop on Stem Cell Biology: Hematopoietic Stem Cells 2015
On 13th Feb, 2015 a seminar-cum-workshop was organized on Stem Cell Biology: Hematopoietic Stem Cells. The program was inaugurated by Administrator (ITSPMC) Mr. D S Jolly. He appreciated the departmental efforts in organizing such seminars and workshops on current topics. Principal, Dr. F K Pandey gave a welcome speech and discussed the importance of stem cells in modern context of life science and medical sciences. The invited speakers were Dr. Bharat Bhushan (Head-Training & Consultancy, Lab Legacy), Dr. Vikas Vats (Scientific Advisor-Stem Cell Research), Dr. Amit Kumar (Scientific Advisor- Scientific Support & IPR), Dr. Banajit Bastia (Scientific Advisor-Clinical Research). The technical session was started by Dr. Bharat Bhushan who had an interactive talk with the students and faculty about the stem cells. He told that Stem cells are undifferentiated biological cells that can differentiate into specialized cells and can divide (through mitosis) to produce more stem cells. They are found in multicellular organisms. In mammals, there are two broad types of stem cells: embryonic stem cells, which are isolated from the inner cell mass of blastocysts, and adult stem cells, which are found in various tissues. Dr. Vikas Vats who is having more than 10 years of experience in Immunological studies in Infectious disease and Stem Cell Research presented his topic on Hematopoietic Stem Cells followed by Dr. Amit Kumar having 12 years in Animal Tissue Culture/ Hybridoma Technology and Patent on Monoclonal Antibody based diagnostic assay delivered lecture on Mononuclear Cells (MNCs). Workshop was conducted after lunch, in which the students were taught to isolate Mononuclear Cells from the animal tissues. The workshop session was headed by Dr. Banajit Bastia and Dr. Bharat Bhushan.
