Vaccines, misuse of antibiotics dominate interaction of students with scientists

1 2 3 Bhubaneswar: Curious students from city schools, who visited the Indian Council of Medical Research-Regional Medical Research Centre (ICMR-RMRC) here on Friday, asked a volley of questions to scientists about viruses, bacteria, vaccines and infections. A student from a city-based private school asked a senior scientist of ICMR about the process of making vaccines for human beings. The scientist explained the lengthy process and told the student about ICMR's contribution in preparing Covaxin . Another student asked the ICMR researchers about the misuse of antibiotics and antibiotic resistance. Others inquired about malaria and dengue during the tour of laboratories at ICMR-RMRC. Scientists were amazed by the number of questions from school students. Around 400 students took part in the ICMR-SHINE Initiative-2025 hosted by ICMR-RMRC on Friday. It was part of the national programme 'SHINE' (Science and Health Innovation for the Nextgen Explorers) to ignite scientific curiosity and inspire school students to explore careers in science and health research. Apart from participating in the guided tours of laboratories at the ICMR-RMRC, students witnessed exhibitions on the research activities of the centre and took part in a quiz competition where they explored live research settings and learned about advancements in biomedical and health research. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Brazil: Kitchen Remodeling Trends in 2025 May Surprise You Kitchen Remodeling | Search ads Search Now Undo "The students also interacted with all the scientists to gain insight into their research activities and gain a deeper understanding of science beyond textbooks, while scientists benefit from engaging with the next generation and potentially receiving feedback or new perspectives," said Sanghamitra Pati, additional director general of ICMR and director of ICMR-RMRC.
