Biotechnology Insights: A Webinar Series

COVID-19 has been the highlight of the year 2020 and changed some of the fundamental aspects of our lives. It forced us to be restricted to the four walls of our house, linked to the outside world only by the wonders of the internet. Needless to say, COVID-19 and the subsequent lockdown as a result of it transformed how we think about education. Students and teachers had little choice but to adapt into the new world created by the pandemic and sought to move the learning process online. 

However, a holistic approach to education is rarely limited to classroom interactions; it requires the elements that make the learning process expand beyond a whiteboard. With such a notion in mind, members of KUBiC, refused to be limited to classrooms and launched an endeavor that broadened the scope of knowledge for every student that they sought to represent. Their approach to a wholesome education was delivered in the form of Biotechnology Insights: A Webinar Series. It was a much needed addition to the online classes conducted in the times of coronavirus and was a commendable step taken by the club to make the transition, for the students, from the physical class to online class easier. 

The webinar began in June with a speaker gracing the online platform every week.

The webinar included many esteemed speakers who took time out of their busy schedule to impart their valuable knowledge and enlighten the audience with their presentation. Their contribution to the webinar is highly appreciated. 

Here, we’ve listed the speakers for the webinar along with their presentation topics.
