Welcome...

             Historically, Indians have been recognized worldwide for their pioneering and spectacular contributions in all facets of life science. In the post-Mendelian era, Indian scientists have made substantial contributions to all areas of genome science. We love and trust to ascribe the term ‘genome’ in a broad (or true) sense to all efforts to depict, utilize or protect the genomes of all organisms on the earth, not just sequencing of gene, gene products and chromosomes.
   
               Working at home and abroad, Indian scientists are actively participating in the global efforts towards the evolution and the progress of this multifaceted subject. However, it is high time for all Indians of the present and future generation devoted to genome science to come over a single platform, know each other personally and professionally, and help each other grow tall among the world community. And with this vision, Genome India International (GII) was established on January 1, 2005.

                

            Our salient objectives include providing an interacting platform and links to useful resources; highlighting contributions of outstanding scientists as ‘role models’; publishing a quality journal; establish an autonomous center on Indian soil for teaching, research and training; fostering bilateral and multinational collaborative endeavors involving India; and act as a converging point for academia, private entrepreneurs, media and national and international funding agencies involved directly or indirectly in genome science. 


            Our ultimate mission is to hold the Indian flag high in the march past of global endeavors in genome science and its related fields. We cordially invite you in this enjoying and enriching travel.


        Vande Mataram! 


Prof. C. Kole

Dr. Norman Borlaug

Dr. Norman Borlaug, Nobel Laureate in Peace 1970 is known well globally as the Father of Green Revolution and for his contributions on agriculture. But a few people know how great he was as a human being. Our founder president Prof. Chittaranjan Kole had a long association with Dr. Borlaug and mentioned some of his personal experiences about Dr. Borlaug - his childish simplicity, honest and humble utterances about his inabilities and difficulties and high appreciations for the scientists of his next generations - in the Dedication of a 10-volume book series on Wild Crop Relatives: Genomic and Breeding Resources Prof. Kole has recently edited for Springer-Verlag. We believe the readers will obtain a rare glimpse of the multifaceted personality of Dr. Borlaug from the paragraphs penned by Prof. Kole.
