🚀 BioPatrika Presents: A Deep Dive into Immunology with focus on Diseases, Drug Development & Biotherapeutics
What does it really take to develop a biologic drug—from concept to clinic?
Why do some therapies succeed while others fail?
And how does immunology shape the future of medicine?
If you’ve ever been curious about these questions, this course is designed for you.
🎓 Online Interactive Course on Immunology (Disease, Drug Development & Biotherapeutics)
👨🏫 Instructor: Narendra Chirmule, PhD
(Former Head of R&D, Biocon | CEO, SymphonyTech Biologics | Adjunct Professor, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia)
📅 Start Date: June 5 (Friday)
⏰ Time: 8:30 – 9:30 PM IST
💻 Mode: Live on Zoom
💡 What makes this course different?
This is NOT a passive lecture series. It’s a hands-on, thinking-driven program where you will:
🔹 Engage in role-play simulations of real-world drug development challenges
🔹 Learn how to read and critically evaluate scientific papers
🔹 Build confidence through presentations and scientific discussions
🔹 Develop communication skills by writing structured reports
You won’t just learn concepts—you’ll think like a scientist in the industry.
