A Spacious architecture built up in an area of 58,000 square ft. house five departm ents. D epartm ent of M icrobialBiotechnology, D epartm ent of Biochem ical Sciences, D epartm ent of Agricultural Biotechnology, D epartm ent of C elland M olecular Biology and D epartm ent of Bioinform atics. Each departm ent has well equipped laboratories to
conduct practicals of graduate, post-graduate as well as research students. Adequate library facility with over 2000books and num ber of periodicals is presently provided to students. Efforts are being m ade to avail latest knowledge inthe form of periodicals and journals. Library is also equipped with internet searching facility and D ELN ET. Acollaboration with British C ouncil Library has also been m ade for periodical and journals.
A special em phasis is given to the com puter training of the students. M odern com puter laboratory equipped withbioinform atics software and Internet connectivity is developed. U se of com puter at every step of learning andlaboratory exercise is encouraged. Internet facility is provided to students to undertake literature survey and prom oteinnovative ideas. The institute has started a Advance D iplom a in Bioinform atics. Every class room is equipped withLCD projectors & Internet connection.
Bharati Vidyapeeth provides unique opportunity to work in collaboration w ith allied disciplines of Biotechnology suchas Pharm acy, Ayurveda, M edicine, Environm ental, Pure Science, M edicine, D entistry etc. C ollaborative researchprojects with college of Ayurveda, Pharm acy, Agriculture and Interactive Research School for H ealth Affairs (IRSH A)are conceived. The academ ic program m e of Rajiv G andhi Institute has a strong support of scientists from prestigiousInstitutes such as Interactive Research School of H ealth Affairs (IRSH A), Bharati Vidyapeeth and N ational C hem icalLaboratory (N C L). Recently Rajiv G andhi Institute has signed M O U 's with Jay Biotech & LabIndia Ltd. for research &conducting workshops respectively.
Biotechnology is an em erging inter disciplinary branch of science that applies the principles of biology andengineering and offers scientists all the background m aterial, indispensable for the developm ent of biotechnologicalprocesses and products. It also offers a unique collection of current inform ation on all aspects in biotechnology
research and genom ics, bioinform atics, special processes, m etabolism and legal, econom ic and ethical dim ensions.
Advances in science and technology have transform ed traditional biotechnology techniques, such as selectivebreeding, hybridization and m utagenesis, into m odern ones such as recom binant D N A techniques and tissue culture.This transform ation has opened the door to m ore varied applications in areas such as health care, the environm ent,forestry, industrial processes and others.
D iscoveries in genetics have led to novel strategies for treating disease. D ecades ago, scientists learned that D N A ism ainly the archive of genetic inform ation. Its orders are translated into action by segm ents of ribonucleic acid (RN A),which serve as the working blueprints for all proteins. Today , chem ists are beginning to create valuable new drugs byfabricating anti-sensesegm ents of RN A, whose sequence is the exact opposite of an unwanted sequence, tocom bine w ith certain existing strands of RN A and thus block the action of specific genes.
Agriculture clearly needs new and safer tools to m anage a range of insects and plant diseases. Fortunately, thepesticide industry has discovered and brought to m arket som e very effective, safer and selective biopesticides andclosely related synthetic analogues. These reduced riskpesticides are key new tools for farm ers. W ithin a few years,m illions of farm ers worldwide will use these biopesticides to reduce their reliance on risky, disruptive broad spectruminsecticides.
Exciting prospects are likely to result from industrial scale plant tissue culture. This m ay soon obviate the need forrearing whole plants in order to generate valuable com m odities such as dyes, flavorings, drugs, and chem icals.C loning techniques could prove to be the w ay to tackle som e of the acute problem s of reforesting in sem i-desert areas.Plants frown from the cells of m ature trees could greatly speed up the process. C om bination of advantageous genes
