You will gain hands-on experience in various research techniques such as handling samples, sequencing, data analysis, molecular biology, cell culture, animal models, systems biology, and exposure to drug development in both clinical and laboratory settings. The first year of training will take place at MAHE, Manipal, followed by training at MAHE or other participating institutions, with opportunities for international training with collaborators abroad. Mentorship will be provided by approved Ph.D. guides from MAHE, Institute of Bioinformatics, and Dr. Reddys Institute of Life Sciences. Additionally, students will have the chance to learn from international collaborators at renowned institutions around the world.
