On the occasion of Teachers' Day, 5th September 2026, BRIC-Institute of Life Sciences (@bric_ils), Bhubaneswar, organized a special talk titled "Science and Spirituality: Guru Shishya Parampara and Science Research."
The talk offered a thoughtful exploration of the timeless Guru-Shishya tradition and its deep resonance with the modern scientific journey — highlighting how the values of mentorship, discipline, and knowledge-sharing that have guided generations continue to shape the world of research today.
The session encouraged our scientists and students alike to reflect on the special bond between a teacher and a learner — a relationship that lies at the very heart of scientific discovery and progress.
BRIC-ILS extends its heartfelt gratitude to all teachers and mentors who inspire curiosity, nurture young minds, and light the path of learning.

It was an engaging discussion to address tribal health issues and solutions from research. @bric_ils @rajesh_gokhale
Had insightful discussions with Director Shri Debasish Dash and other key officials at the Institute of Life Sciences (ILS), Bhubaneswar, on several critical topics, including advancements in cancer research and strategies to combat infectious diseases.
As one of the leading institutions in the country, ILS plays a pivotal role in the field of research, particularly in medical sciences.
Its contributions to advancing healthcare, cancer treatment, and infectious disease management are truly commendable. Our government is ready to extend full support to ensure its growth and success in driving innovation and excellence in research.
