Training courses in Chronobiology

Chronobiology though sound only related to life sciences, it is truly an interdisciplinary branch of science dealing with every aspect of not only humans but ecosystem as a whole. Rhythmic geophysical cycles has effect on every living being and evolutionary forces have installed a powerful endogenous clock in all species for anticipation of daily environmental changes.

Chronobiological understanding of daily rhythmic cycles will help individual to modify the lifestyle and live in synchronization with external clock. 

We are planning short term training courses for school / college students and professionals along with extensive advanced course for post graduate students. The details are as follows:

Introductory Course in Chronobiology
Duration: 1 month   Fees Rs. 2000-00  (Every month starting from May 2018)

Basic Course in Chronobiology
Duration: 4 months   Fees Rs. 5000-00 (Twice a year July - Oct  &  Jan - Apr)
