A four-day long national bioinformatics workshop ‘Deep Bioinformatics Bootcamp Season 2’ kick-started today at the CSIR-Institute of Himalayan Bioresource Technology, Palampur. This year’s theme of the workshop is transcriptional regulation.

Dr Sudesh Kumar Yadav, director CSIR-IHBT, extended a warm welcome to all the participants and hoped that the workshop would be useful to them. Dr Sameer Sawant, Chief Scientist CSIR-National Botanical Research Institute, Lucknow, gave the inaugural talk while the keynote speaker of the event was Usha Vijayraghavan, dean of Biological Sciences, Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru.

Hands-on training on Linux and Programming was imparted to the participants. A total of 34 participants from all over India are participating in the workshop.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
