Ph. D
“I am from the North-Eastern part of India (Assam). The friendly behavior of hostel staff of girls’ hostel was a comfortable start. Changing my field of study from Biotechnology to Bioinformatics was a big step but the course structure of the program made it a lot easier to adapt to. With both experimental and computational facilities in Centre for Bioinformatics, Pondicherry University, it provides a promising opportunity for study and research”
