Of plants and humans-Soumana Datta

Subtitle

This page is about options in life of a biologist. What are you going to do as a plant science student? What kind of tools and technologies are available in the hands of biologists, have you ever pondered? The options are many and students of science can explore these while being engrossed in a lifetime of studies and research. For the world is ever changing and new inventions, discoveries are enfolding fast. How we keep pace with this changing scenario will be determined by how well prepared we are.


Our progress as a nation can be no swifter than our progress in education.

The human mind is our fundamental resource. ----------------------------------------- John F. Kennedy
