  • | Saturday | 4th March, 2017

The young minds were at the open day to learn all about science under one roof. The open day is also a platform for the institute to showcase its many innovations to public. Other inventions included a copper oxide transistor that enables one to explore cells at an infinitesimal level by the nano technology department and a pot that never overflows when filled to the brim. The open day tour began with an introduction to micro biology and then the volunteers showed this year’s invention, the FMOD, an unregulated cancer cell that mitigates the pace in which cancer spreads throughout the body. From quizzes and puzzles to the menagerie of furry animals to explain immunology, cloning, the DNA structure of human body, the intricacies of nano technology, were all part of the event.
