Lecture Series in Advanced Biology 2026

Theme : Dynamical Biology

Coordinators : Ananya Bandyopadhyay, Atal Vats

Dates : 3rd May to 28th June, 2026

Time : Every Sunday 10am to 1pm

Venue : NCBS, Bengaluru Campus

The PhD and Postdoctoral community of NCBS and inStem brings the 13^th edition of lecture series where we introduce a research-based learning of biology through interactive sessions and activities. Our idea is to build concepts and foster analytical thinking among the undergrad students.

The theme of this year's lecture series is "Dynamical Biology”, where we will explore how biological systems operate over time. And such processes occur at different scales ranging from molecules to populations. Through this series, we hope to teach students not only the ‘how’ of these dynamics, but ‘why’ are they crucial for the biological systems. 

The series promises exciting lectures to understand the theme and invoke ideas in the young minds which will pave a way for their potential future research careers. This is best suited for undergraduate students of any discipline who have an interest in biology. However, master students are encouraged to apply as well. Preference will be given to applicants in their 2nd/3rd year B.Sc, 2nd-4th year B.Tech and 1st year M.Sc due to limited capacity. Evaluation of applicants will be based on eligibility and their responses in the registration form. 

Registration deadline : 25th March, 2026
