BRIC-Institute of Bioresources and Sustainable Development Celebrates National Science Day
The BRIC-Institute of Bioresources and Sustainable Development (IBSD), Takyelpat, Imphal commemorated National Science Day 2025 with a vibrant celebration at its Conference Hall today. The annual event, observed on 28th February, honours the anniversary of Sir C.V. Raman's revolutionary discovery of the 'Raman Effect' in 1928—a scientific breakthrough that earned him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1930 and established him as the first Indian Nobel laureate in the sciences.
The celebration brought together staff, research scholars, and students from IBSD's regional centres in Sikkim, Meghalaya, and Mizoram, who participated both in-person and virtually. The institute also welcomed a delegation of teachers and students from Ramkrishna Mission School, Uripok, Imphal, enhancing the community outreach of the event.
Dr. H. Nanaocha Sharma, Director (Additional Charge) of BRIC-IBSD, opened the ceremony with a welcome address, articulating the institute's mission, goals, and strategic objectives in advancing bioresource research and sustainable development in the region.
