From advancing diagnostics and therapeutics to advancing translational medicine, biotechnology is continuing to touch our lives in a way which leads to meeting the unmet medical needs through innovation. The seed of innovation lies within a human mind and if nurtured in the right manner will yield a fruitful result. Ironically, a large percentage of young minds do not get this opportunity where their talent is nurtured or they gain practical skills.
The bitter truth is that, "Theory" in case of applied sciences subjects can only do so much and most of it relies in the practical skill training. So to witness the potential of Biotechnology happening in real time, it is important that the young minds are given the right kind of hands on experience and practical skills in the emerging areas of translational health so that they are firstly updated with the latest healthcare technology trends, understand the direction where the advancement is needed and finally contribute to this growing sector.
"Our idea behind Otlu Academy is exactly to help the students gain practical skills training and provide certificate/ degree programs in the emerging and promising field of Stem Cells, Gene therapy, Regenerative Medicine, Immunotherapy, Molecular Medicine and Basic Molecular biology skills. Our vision for Otlu Academy is to establish it as a dedicated Institute with a profound global network for excelling in advancing healthcare technologies where innovation is fostered, and students are prepared for employability in healthcare industry", said Prabhu Mishra, CEO, StemMax Research and therapeutics Pvt Ltd.
