4) Special Segments

The workshop will introduce two special segments which will make it more engaging and interactive for the maximum benefit of the participants:

Great Ideas and Best Practices in Biochemistry Education – New trends in education strongly advocate greater integration of disciplines and more use of innovative technologies with greater involvement of students in the teaching-learning process itself. Such major paradigm shifts have made it imperative for faculty to adopt the best practices in the design and delivery of the basic science curriculum. Thus this segment is primarily aimed to enhance understanding of these issues and generate discussion through presentation of creative thoughts and best practices which can be adopted. It will involve 10-minute short presentations from the participants.

Meet the Expert – Education and career are closely connected- thus students at the postgraduate level need to implement the skills and infomation of scientific nature for professional development. This segment is aimed to provide a face to face coaching for future people of science on issues like internet searching, CV writing, oral communications as well as introducing new perspectives for fellowships programs in science.
