My Address after laying foundation stone of Rs 42 cr BioFoundary at the ‘National Agri-Food and Biomanufacturing Institute’ #NABI #Chandigarh: Key takeaways: “In the emerging global food scenario of lab foods including  animal free lab milk and lab mutton, the world is faced with rising global protein demand and environmental concerns requiring alternative and sustainable solutions. And therefore, “smart proteins” developed through microbial fermentation, plant biotechnology and synthetic biology offer a scalable and sustainable pathway for the future of food.  BioFoundaries like this can serve as ‘Smart Protein Forum’ bringing together research and industry to accelerate innovation in this emerging sector. The new facility will provide advanced infrastructure including large-scale fermenters, upstream and downstream processing systems, and high-throughput experimental platforms. It will also support #StartUps and industry through scale-up, pre-commercialisation and technology transfer, while also serving as a skill development hub for young professionals and entrepreneurs in biotechnology”.

India’s bioeconomy has grown from around $10 billion in 2014 to over $195 billion in 2025, reflecting significant progress. He noted that biotechnology is playing a key role in healthcare, agriculture, climate solutions, and sustainable manufacturing, with India aiming for a $300 billion bioeconomy by 2030.

India’s vast coal reserves could potentially help reduce its dependence on LPG. China is already doing it. Can India follow suit? DME, a cleaner substitute, can be scaled for domestic use, but only if India shifts to producing methanol, the key ingredient, instead of importing it, says Dr. @AshishLele3467 (@csir_ncl). In conversation with @govindethiraj, he explains how India can do that. Listen in!

February 2026 issue of Indian Journal of Experimental Biology (IJEB) (Vol. 64(2)) by CSIR-NIScPR brings fresh findings in biology and biomedical research, including studies on human immune disorders.

“The highlight of this year’s Foundation Day of "Biotechnology Industry Research Assistance Council" #BIRAC is that, as per the India Bio Economy Report #IBER2025 released today, India achieves a quantum rise in bio-economy, touching the figure of 195.3 billion U.S. dollars. This is significant , particularly because before the Modi government came in 2014, India's bio-economy stood at mere 10 billion U.S. dollars, which means that there has been a nearly 20 times hike in just over a decade. This milestone is in keeping with the collective realisation that the next industrial revolution is going to be biotechnology driven and the entire paradigm of economic growth is going to shift from IT to majorly Biotech and, when that happens, India would have already taken a lead. Similarly, while in 2014 the number of biotech #StartUps in this country was just around 400, today it is nearly 12,000, which is again quite a record. While congratulating the entire fraternity and the industry for this synergised effort, it is important to mention that, this success story has been possible primarily because of an enabling milieu and patronage provided by PM Sh @NarendraModi, who not only made sure that India was among the first few countries in the world to launch a dedicated Biotechnology policy called #BioE3, but he also made it a point to publicly announce this in his Independence Day address of 2025, calling upon the youth of the country to explore the biotechnology sector to discover a bright future for themselves”.

The three-day Hands-on Training Programme on High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), organised by CSIR-IIIM Jammu under the CSIR Integrated Skill Initiative, concluded successfully today. Director Dr. Zabeer Ahmed, while addressing the valedictory session, appreciated the enthusiastic participation of researchers and students and emphasized the importance of skill-based training in strengthening scientific research and innovation in the country. Participants from leading institutions across India gained valuable hands-on experience in HPLC instrumentation, method development, sample analysis, and data interpretation. The programme provided a dynamic platform for interactive learning and capacity building in advanced analytical techniques. Certificates were distributed to participants, marking the successful completion of the training programme. #CSIRIIIM #CSIRIIIMJammu #HPLC #ScientificTraining #SkillDevelopment #Research #Innovation #Jammu #CSIRIndia #AnalyticalChemistry #CapacityBuilding #PharmaceuticalResearch #HandsOnTraining
