We are delighted to welcome you to the 4th RGCB Research Conference from 13th to 16th September 2026 on the shores of the Ashtamudi Lake in the Kollam District of Kerala.
As the sequel to the three earlier successes, this year’s conference will continue to stimulate and engage the participants by featuring exciting research talks by our RGCB scientists as well as national and international experts. This three-day retreat is tailored as a forum to share latest scientific research, facilitate vibrant discussions and provide ample opportunities for collaborations towards shared scientific goals. The conference is aimed at serving as a platform for RGCB students to imbibe scientific advancements directly from the discoverers. These three days of science in serenity will feature talks from across the prominent thematic areas of RGCB’s research focus.
We look forward to meeting you at the tranquil backwaters, away from the bustle of the city!
The Rajiv Gandhi Centre for Biotechnology (RGCB) sees itself a key player in this development process. Our research is focused on understanding disease biology and processing this knowledge for better management and therapeutics. The trademark feature of RGCB is the collaborative and interdisciplinary approach we bring to everything we do. This unique facet and the energetic atmosphere of the institute is our success, also creating by itself an ideal and fertile teaching atmosphere for graduate students and postdoctoral trainees. RGCB does innovative research in cellular and molecular mechanisms of human, animal and plant diseases. These programs are designed to lead discovery and innovation by integrating theory, modeling, simulation and experiential science encompassing disciplines such as cell biology, genetics, chemical biology, immunology and others.
The 4th RGCB Research Conference will be held at Club Mahindra Ashtamudi Resort, Kollam District, Kerala.
