About the Conference

South Asian University was  jointly  established  in  2010 by  the  eight  SAARC  countries.  We  already  run  master  and Ph.D.  level  programs  in  seven  areas  including  one  in Biotechnology. Mandate of  the SAU is  to  inculcate Regional Consciousness  amongst  students  from South Asian  countries and to promote cooperation and collaborations amongst these countries. 

It  has  been  our  endeavor  to  provide  in  SAU  a  forum where  scholars  from  various  South  Asian  countries  may interact,  exchange  ideas  and  develop  collaborative  joint projects.  For  this  purpose,  the  Faculty  of  Life  Sciences  and Biotechnology  (FLSB), SAU proposes  to  organize  a  “South-Asian Biotechnology Conference”. This conference will bring together the researchers from all the SAARC countries where they  can present  their  research  and get  firsthand  information about  the  kind  of  work  being  carried  out  in  other  SAARC countries. 

Towards the end of this conference, we plan to have one session  to  discuss  the  feasibility  and modalities  of  enhanced cooperation  amongst  researchers  in  SAARC  countries  in  the area  of  Life  Sciences  and Biotechnology.  In  this  session  the policies  and  modes  of  facilitating  cooperation  amongst different  countries  in  specific  areas  like  the GM crops,  stem cell research and infectious diseases etc will be discussed.
