About Us:
Vacancy Notice Research Associate Vacancy – NIBMG,West Bengal
- National Institute of Biomedical Genomics (NIBMG) is a national level research institute for genomic medicine in India. It is located at Kalyani West Bengal—50 km from Kolkata. It has been established as an autonomous institution under the Department of Biotechnology, Government of India.This is the first institution in India explicitly devoted to research, training, translation and service and capacity-building in biomedical genomics.
- The National Institute of Biomedical Genomics has been established in recognition of the facts that
- The epidemiological profile of diseases in India is showing significant changes starting from about two decades ago, with decreasing prevalence of infectious diseases and increasing prevalence of chronic diseases,
- There is increasing evidence of involvement of genetic factors in the determination of health and disease of individuals, including susceptibility to infectious diseases,
- These genetic factors interact with life-style and other environmental factors, and
There is no institution in India explicitly devoted to research, translation & service (including genetic testing and genomic diagnostics) and capacity-building in biomedical genomics. - A systematic and clear understanding of geographical and ethnic variation in causal factors of disease of high prevalence in India and an in-depth estimation of the interaction between genetics and environmental factors are of paramount importance. There is large gap in India in mounting efforts to understand and estimate these parameters of major relevance to public health. Genetically and culturally homogeneous population isolates are widely acknowledged to hold the key to understanding and dissecting common chronic diseases, that is a prerequisite to the prevention and control of such diseases. India with a relatively large number of genetically unadmixed population groups is a favourable ground for the conduct of genetic epidemiological studies. In addition, family size in India continues to be large and geographical mobility of individuals is still relatively low; both these factors are very useful for providing an in-depth understanding of genetics and epidemiology of common diseases- common not only in India but also in many other global regions. Thus, the National Institute of Biomedical Genomics in India will not only cater to medicine and public health in India, but globally as well.
- The “Genomics and Global Health Report 2004” has emphasized that genomics- the powerful new wave of health related life sciences energized by human genome project and the knowledge tools it is spawning, is a relatively new field, but has tremendous potential to address health problems in developing countries, if we rise to the challenge. NIBMG aspires to rise to this challenge.
