Sessions/Tracks 

Agricultural Biotechnology

Agricultural biotechnology is a cutting-edge science incorporating biotechnology and agricultural science. Genetic engineering, cell and tissue culture technologies of biotechnology are combined with the technologies of agricultural sciences.

Food Biotechnology

Food Biotechnology is focused on emerging developments and applications of modern genetics, enzymatic, metabolic and systems-based biochemical processes in food and food-related biological systems.

Animal Husbandry

This sector broadly covers: Development of improved breed of animals with higher milk production, Higher animal productivity and with other desirable characteristic, animal feed, embryo transfer, developing vaccines etc.

Health care (also termed as Medical Biotechnology)

Application: Development of genetically engineered vaccines, DNA Fingerprinting, immunodiagnostic Kits for early detection of diseases, Gene profiling, antibiotics, Skin grafting etc.

Industrial Biotechnology

Industrial Biotechnology has a wide range of application, such as extraction of metals by microbial methods, enrichment of ores etc. It plays a vital role in food processing and beverage industry, etc.

Aquaculture and Marine biotechnology

It helps in generating new classes of pharmaceuticals, polymers, enzymes and many other chemical products. It is also helpful in Aquaculture, Transgenics, Fish production, Bioremedation, conservation, sea weeds culture etc.

Environmental Biotechnology

Environmental Biotechnology helps in Biodegradation of xenobiotic compounds, Bio-mining, Restoration of denuded areas, Bio-sensors, processing of wastes, Composting, Anaerobic processing, etc

Plant Biotechnology/Agri-biotechnology

Plant Biotechnology/Agri-biotechnology: deals with plant system which confers the plant tissue culture, plant molecular biology, medicinal research based on either Research and Development or Academic approach. Forestry also comes as a joint venture wherein tree biotechnology tree health program being associated.

Medicinal research

Immunology, clinical research having taken up as a vital course of action in biotechnology

Molecular biology, Biochemistry:

Common tools for all disciplines in biology

Bio-nanotechnology

Emerging technology complementing biotechnology in drug discovery and other biomatrix or as a nanomaterial

Bioinformatics:

Common for all due to its significant role in dry lab, before setting any experiment specifically in proteomics and genomics you can have a predicted model to save your time, money and effort. In silico analysis is possible due to the data base access program in bioinformatics

Biophysics:

Instrumental analysis is possible with the background of fundamental sciences (phyics, chemistry and maths)

Genetics and genetic engineering:

Understanding of genetics in human body and analysis of DNA RNA structures of human, animals and plants altogether. It aims to understand how genetics causes certain diseases and how could it we stopped.

Bioprocess engineering:

It involves the study of processing certain biological species while manufacturing medicines. It studies the nature of species and they should be processed.

Chemical reaction engineering: It involves the study about reaction of chemicals and lives in manufacturing medicines.

Bioethics

It involves the study about laws and ethics that should be followed by companies in testing biospecies like animals or humans. It is an ethical subject that every biotechnologician need to follow while doing his resaerch.

Genomics and proteopmics

It involves in modelling and restructuring of genes and proteins in human, animal and plant bodies to find new structures.

Antibody engineering

 It is the study dealing with antibodies, its formation and regulation.

 

Protein engineering:

It involves the functioning of restructured protein in human bodies.

 Biopharmaceutical technology

It studies the functioning of microbes in producing medicines.

Bioentrepreneur engineering

It deals with the subject of entrepreneurial skills in setting up a company dealing with biotechnology.

Vaccine engineering:

It involves in the study of modelling and restructuring new vaccines from microbes.

 Stem cell engineering

 It involves in the study of stem cell in human body and their applications.

 Cell biotechnology

 It involves in study of cell functions in different organs of human, animal and plants.

Cancer biology

 it is the study of cancer and cells in human.

Viro biotechnology

 Study of different forms and structures of virus in human, animals, plants and birds.

Algal Biotechnology

Biotechnology research goals therefore include finding ways to increase the reproductive rate, improve metabolism of inputs, and enhance the production of desired oils, fuel-grade alcohols, or proteins in useful species. Researchers have found that many algae species are adaptable to genetic engineering, expressing complex proteins and accumulating recombinant proteins to very high levels.

Microbial Biotechnology

As any technological application that uses microbiological systems, microbial organisms, or derivatives thereof, to make or modify products or processes for specific use

Biomaterials

Biomaterials are natural or synthetic materials used in medical field to improve quality of life by either replacing tissue/organ or assisting their function

Bio Fuel

Biofuels are combustible fuels created from biomass; in other words, fuels created from recently living plant matter as opposed to ancient plant matter in hydrocarbons.
