Chandigarh, July 10, 2024: The Department of Biochemistry, Panjab University, Chandigarh hosted an Expert Talk by Internationally renowned scientist Dr. Gurpreet K Aulakh, Associate Professor and Fedoruk Chair in Imaging, Department of small animal clinical sciences at University of Sasketchewan, Canada. The title of the talk was ‘Novel Immune Modulators of Acute Lung Inflammation’. 

The program was supported by DBT-BUILDER grant sanction by the Department of Biotechnology, Govt of India. 

The Chairperson of the department Prof. Amarjit Singh Naura introduced the speaker and thanked her for sparing a valuable time to deliver a talk at the department. He highlighted that Dr. Aulakh has a distinction of having a unique speciality in the field of Biological Imaging which is indeed is a very sophisticated tool for exploring the cellular interactions within the whole tissue. Such a specialization allow the scientists to study the tissue at depth and helps in understanding the physiological/pathological response within the tissue under different conditions. 

The talk was very interesting and during her presentation Dr. Aulakh kept the audience thoroughly engaged through depicting course of biological processes at the tissue level under different conditions by showing the multiple images and videos through use of state-of-the-art biological imaging techniques. 

The session generated a great enthusiasm among the students and faculty.
