Research is necessary for providing better and advanced treatment to patients, said deputy CM Brajesh Pathak at the 19th Foundation Day of the Centre of BioMedical Research (CBMR), on Wednesday.
Pathak said, “New medicine, implants and technology are required and CBMR is playing a vital role in this. CBMR is being developed as a national translational research institute. To increase patents research and collaboration with international institutes should be given preference.”
Pathak lauded the centre’s role in advancing neuroimaging, biomarker discovery, drug discovery, molecular diagnostics, translational medicine, and its commitment to developing affordable healthcare solutions.
Professor Alok Dhawan, director of CBMR, presented a detailed report highlighting the institute’s achievements over the past year. He underlined the Centre’s increasing focus on IPR generation, innovation ecosystems, and cross-disciplinary partnerships with both national and international institutions. He reiterated CBMR’s mission to support affordable, accessible, and advanced healthcare solutions through sustained scientific inquiry and innovation.
