About Symposium
Recent advancements in DNA sequencing have made enormous contribu�ons to understanding the biology of life forms. Reduced cost and increased speed of DNA sequencing have led to rapid growth of genomics. Func�onal significance of genomic elements (genes, RNA, proteins, small molecules and phenotype) are s�ll being unravelled in each organism. India being a country having the richest biodiversity hotspots in the world, there is huge scope to decode genomes, understand and harness the biodiversity heritage through func�onal genomics. Transdisciplinary genomics has made phenomenal discoveries in the biological sciences since last decade. To foster transdisciplinary dialogues in func�onal genomics, TDU is organizing a two day “Na�onal Symposium on Future of Func�onal Genomics” by networking with scien�sts across India.

Learning for Life at TDUNature is mul�faceted. Learning is non-linear. Recognizing this, the Ins�tute of Transdisciplinary Health Sciences & Technology (TDU) is commi�ed as a university, to promote inter, mul� and trans disciplinary perspec�ves in every domain with an aim to make learning more holis�c, enjoyable and thus improve learning outcomes for its students.
TransDisciplinary University (TDU) has evolved from 24 years of pioneering work of the Founda�on for Revitaliza�on of Local Health Tradi�ons (FRLHT). TDU offers undergraduate, postgraduate and PhD programmes which are of contemporary relevance, and cu�ng edge. We prepare students and scholars to have an uncommon advantage compared to their peers because of our emphasis on experien�al learning and competency based evalua�on.
The School of Integra�ve Health Sciences focuses on disciplines such as Life Science, Genomics, Clinical Research, Local Health Tradi�ons, Indian Systems of Medicine (Ayurveda) and Ethno-veterinary sciences. The School offers courses in the areas of Life Sciences (Ayurveda Biology), Ethno-veterinary prac�ces, Conserva�on Future, Nadi-Vigyana, Genomics and Bioinforma�cs.
