M.Sc Genetics / M.Phil Biotechnology / PhD Program at Univeristy of Delhi

DEPARTMENT OF GENETICS
The Department of Genetics was established in 1984, as a part of the Faculty of Inter-disciplinary and Applied Sciences at the University of Delhi South Campus. In its brief period of existence the department has developed into an advanced centre of study in Genetics recognized by the University Grants Commission (UGC) under their Special Assistance Programme (SAP-phaseII) and Department of Science and Technology under their FIST programme. Two of the faculties also have Centers of Excellence supported by Department of Biotechnology.

The department conducts a two year post-graduate programme in Genetics, a one year M.Phil. programme in Biotechnology and a Ph.D. programme. Through its interdisciplinary approaches involving interactions with different institutes and departments of the country, the department not only offers a unique opportunity to imbibe knowledge from experts in different fields but also helps maintain a high academic standard. Teaching in the department is also supported by research activities in frontline areas being pursued by the faculty of the department. M.Sc. students are encouraged to interact intensively with the faculty as well as research scholars of the department.

Human genetic diversity in Asia has been mapped for the first time,important implications for the study of genetics and diseases

During this time when all regions in India are joining to get seperated.....scientist are revealing the diversities of our orgins in Asia.  There are revealing facts in this genetic mapping carried out by over 90 scientist across Asia. Read on to know more....

Human genetic diversity in Asia has been mapped for the first time by a group of over 90 scientists from the Human Genome Organisation’s (HUGO’s) Pan-Asian SNP Consortium. In the process it has not only mapped of genetic diversity in Asia but also traced the genetic origins of Asian populations. This was disclosed by the Union Minister of Science and Technology Shri. Prithviraj Chavan and Shri S.K. Brahmchari, DG, CSIR at a Press Conference today(11th Dec 2009). The findings were also published online in a report in the journal “Science” today.


The human genetic mapping of Asia has important implications, especially in the further understanding of migratory patterns in human history and for the study of genetics and diseases. The study conducted within and between the different populations in the Asia continent showed that genetic ancestry was highly correlated with ethnic and linguistic groups. There was a clear increase in genetic diversity from northern to southern latitudes. The study also suggested that there was one major inflow of human migration into Asia ensuing from Southeast Asia, rather than multiple inflows from both southern and northern routes as proposed before. This indicates that Southeast Asia was the major geographic source of East Asian and North Asian populations.

Prof. Edison Liu, Executive Director at the Genome Institute of Singapore (GIS) and the President of the HUGO, which initiated and coordinated this research has said that the study was a milestone not only in the science that emerged but the consortium that was formed. Prof. Partha Majumder, Prof. And head, Human Genetics Units, Indian Statistical Institute and Director, Centre for Population Genomics, Kolkata has said that this study marks a milestone of the collaboration among the geneticist from the ten Asian Countries and paves the road to a better understanding of our origin. We would like to extend this study not only in the direction of population genetics but also towards medical and health related issues.

What is this all about?
CCMB, a premier R&D Institute engaged in research in the areas of modern biology, is looking for a full-time Indian postdoctoral fellow with PhD in Genetics (preferably yeast) to work in the Laboratory of Prof. Olivier Gadal, Universite Paul-Sabatier, France, under an Indo-French Collaborative Project “Epigenetics of Transcription by RNA polymerase III” funded by IFCPAR.

Who Can Apply?
Candidates should have a recent PhD in genetics, with a profile that combines molecular biology experience and cell biology research. He/she will contribute to the analysis of gene positioning in yeast. Thus, practical and theoretical experiences in research with chromatin and transcription and interest for cutting-edge imaging techniques are highly welcome.

Area of Work/Project details
The Indo-French collaborative Project is funded by the Indo-French Centre for the Promotion of Advanced Research (IFCPAR) to study gene positioning using real-time imaging in living cells. Using a combination of  cell biology and genetic approaches, structural players which contribute to spatial positioning of RNA polymerase III transcribed genes will be identified.

Salaray: 1850 € (salary / month) for a duration of 2 years

Applications and Selection Procedures
Candidates (Indian nationals) can send their CVs on or before 31.12.2009 giving details of educational qualifications such as name of degree, year of passing, division obtained, Name of University, title of
