The eminent visionaries of City Educational & Social Welfare Society, Meerut, started NIET with a vision to provide value based higher education. NIET has been ranked among top 100 institutes

in India, 5th in UP and 1st in Greater Noida by NIRF, MHRD, and Gov. of
India.

Background and Scope:

The goal of this 15 days short-term training course is to highlight a variety of aspects of Drosophila development as a model organism in interdisciplinary research. This STTC includes hands-on training, demonstrations and lectures from experts and members of the
core committee in the relevant fields.

Objective of the Course:

• To provide cutting-edge laboratory research techniques in biological science, health science, animal science and pharmaceutical to faculty, mid-career UG/ PG scientists, and researchers.
• To use Drosophila as a model organism for research in the field of nanobiotechnology, particularly in the areas of safety analysis and toxicity assessment.
• To study the impacts of nanomaterials ingestion on fertility and reproductive performance, biochemical assays and behavioral assays of Drosophila.
• To facilitate the exchange of information and expertise on Drosophila genetics in undergraduate and graduate education, as well as Nano-biotechnology, neurodegenerative disease, pharmaceuticals, and biotechnology.

Major Highlights of the Course:

• Introduction to Drosophila fruit fly and culturing techniques in laboratory.
• Demonstration of Drosophila field collection techniques in the field.
• Drosophila sex and species identification and separation.
• Knowledge of Drosophila species and mutants.
• The importance/preparation of the Drosophila polytene chromosome and imaginal discs.
  ♦ Wnt signalling and regulation of Drosophila.
• lmmunostaining of imaginal disc of Drosophila
• Better utilization of Drosophila in UG/PG teaching.
  ♦ DNA and proteins synthesis and visualization.
• Impacts of nanomaterials ingestion on fertility and reproductive performance of Drosophila.
  ♦ Impacts of nanomaterials ingestion on biochemical assays and behavioural assays of Drosophila.
• Therapeutic applications of nanomaterials in life sciences and pharmacology
• Carbon doVquantum dots synthesis and their conjugates.
• Safety analysis and toxicity evaluation of nanomaterials on Drosophila.
• Drosophila neurodegenerative models vs. nanotechnology.
• Oxidative stress mediated by nanoparticles analysis on Drosophila.
• Tissue engineering using nanostructured scaffolds.
• Future of Nanotechnology in a medical application for the defence sector
• Regulatory aspect towards approval and biosafety measurement
• Study of nanoconjugates with antibiotics, curcumin, egg white proteins etc.
• Functionalization of nanoconjugate proteins for therapeutic applications
• Bioremediation of textile dyes using nanoparticles
• Challenges and advances in Nano pharmaceuticals
• Future prospective of nanobiotechnology
