My Journey in the Biotech Industry - Part I

Hello everyone, I’m Dr. Brahmbhatt, and I’m thrilled to share my journey in the biotech industry here in India. Back in 2010, I embarked on my academic path in Biotechnology at a modest college in Gujarat. Our class started with about 150 students, many of whom were new to the subject and its potential. Despite having the grades to pursue courses like B.Pharma, BAMS, BHMS, or BDS, I chose B.Sc. Biotechnology, driven by a deep-seated passion for the field. After completing my B.Sc., I enrolled in a prestigious college for my M.Sc., specializing in Genetics. Genetics has always fascinated me, and I thoroughly enjoyed delving into every aspect of this field during my two-year postgraduate journey.
