All these students have joined Italian universities recently.
Gupta said two students from first batch of 2002-04 were selected for Czech government scholarships and Navneet Kumar has joined National Centre for Biomolecular Research (NCBR), Brno (Czech Republic). Navneet is working on the calculation of binding energy to establish a model for revealing the interaction between carbohydrates and antibodies. Anamika Mishra from the same batch is doing research at University of South Bohemia (Czech Republic) on analysis of fluorescence kinetic images in multidimensional space using advance statistical methods under the guidance of Professor Ladislaw Nedbal.
