Scientific institutions in India have so far focused their efforts
on creating infrastructure for cutting edge research in
the area of life sciences. Institute of

collaboration with Institute of Molecular Medicine
(IMM-The Chatterjee Group) for the first time, has
looked at opportunities in core - shared research
facility by leveraging their domain specialization and
