Govt MVM, Bhopal ( Barkatullah University) -2012, attended the program at AIIMS, New Delhi 2014
It was very good experience to learn about drug designing. I felt very nice that personal attention had been given to each students if any of them face any problem to learn things that were being taught there.
Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (IIITA), attended the program at AIIMS, New Delhi 2014
Valuable experience in field of in-silico drug designing for beginners. The workshop created an interest in field of bioinformatics and gave us options to work in research areas too.Such workshops should be conducted and preferably for longer duration.
Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (IIITA), attended the program at AIIMS, New Delhi 2014
It's obviously a good program, and much practical dependent. It helps me to understand protein structure, folding pattern and ligand docking more deeply. I think the course should cover more area and more than 2 days then it will be more helpful for the students and researcher.
South Asian University, New Delhi, attended the program at AIIMS, New Delhi 2014
It was a good workshop and I learned a lot but the way of teaching was a little fast may be because of less time but I would just say that overall it was good and I gained something from it . I liked the way of teaching of Asif Naqvi sir.
Banaras Hindu University, attended the program at AIIMS, New Delhi 2014
It was a good experience. The workshop was quite useful for those interested in drug designing. The best part was the practical one. We got into the different software and this will help us a lot in future. But I would like the BioDiscovery Group to rather start from the basics because there were many students who did not know even the basics, so the concepts should be clear first.
Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (IIITA), attended the program at AIIMS, New Delhi 2014
Sir, you have really made a difference in my knowledge. I would have not get such a great knowledge if you hadn't mediated the information among us. I myself believes that such kind of events should be organized frequently. Your relax course background is praiseworthy.

Wipro GE Healthcare Private Limited, Bangalore, attended the program at Training course | Mumbai | Drug Discovery India 2014
It was one of the most informative workshop I've attended. It encapsulated the essence of in-silico drug designing by providing both theoretical and practical knowledge on the same. As a second year B.Sc(H) Microbiology student it gave me exposure to work upon the creative space in designing drugs against various viral and bacterial diseases. A great experience!
Bhaskaracharya College Of Applied Sciences, University Of Delhi??, attended the program at AIIMS, New Delhi 2014
Being a beginner in the field of biotechnology, i learned a lot and my curiosity level has gone much higher. The workshop was amazing although i faced some difficulty in understanding some points due to my course level (2nd year). Waiting to explore much in this field and for some more good experiences ahead!

It was a nice experience . Had a chance to meet scientific community. Got a chance to learn a lot. Thank you BioDiscovery Group
Amity University, Noida, attended the program at AIIMS, New Delhi 2014
2 days workshop on practical approach in molecular simulation and dynamics , opened new ideas of research relevant to my research field in virology and cancer,but more practical application on cases studies is required by extending time from 2 days to 5 days this will help trainee to acquire skills in practising on softwares,also another point trainer may need qualified assistant (aware with workshop softwares) to help trainees especially if number of participants more than 15 Otherwise , overall evaluation was great
National Cancer Institute, Cairo university, attended the program at HAVAN hotel, Giza, Cairo
It was a good learning experience, I would appreciate Mr. Asif's oration skills and patience. Although a lot of informative material was sent prior to workshop I would suggest that in the introduction presentation please add a little discussion on algorithms used in drug design, it would be helpful. Thank you.
National Institute of Immunology, attended the program at AIIMS
Workshop was good. It really opened up the knowledge of drug design and discovery.

Regarding Artificial Intelligence in Biology. I found it will take time to learn it as not having computer background anyhow it was fine to see this what is covered in biology with it.
UIET, Panjab University, Chandigarh
I am very grateful to the BDG Lifesciences for organizing a workshop on Exome sequencing analysis, and introducing me to Dr. Bharati Mittal who was the resource person for the workshop. I am especially thankful to Dr. Bharati Mittal for sharing her extensive knowledge on such an exclusive and classified topic. It was in every bit a hand-on workshop especially for a biologist like me who wanted to venture into computational bioinformatics to conduct the NGS analysis of patient samples with little knowledge of Linux based operating systems. Dr. Bharati literally filled the gap between the lab to the patient, with her excellent teaching skills whereby she eloquently explained the biology and principle of Exome sequencing and then taught the commands that began with the fastqc file and all the way to the final annotated vcf file generation. I was allowed to use my own data for the entire analysis, which we compared to the final report. She explained the attributes of the ACMG-AMP guidelines with amazing simplicity. Despite a virtual platform, it was an exciting experience to work remotely using a lab-based server during off-hours from home, under her patient guidance. I highly recommend this workshop to all those working in basic science and computational biology backgrounds.

VELS University, attended the program at Chennai
The course can be more informative and the software training can be given in more detail, since the training was given only to complete the present study, and the other modules and the other options in the software was less known. Hence the practical application may become a little difficult if we perform an individual study.

Birla College, Mumbai University, attended the program at Mumbai, India
Learning NGS was really useful and informative for me. It helped to enhance my understanding in NGS. Hope more workshops in future. Thank you!
Bharathiar University
Name of the program: 7-day NGS workshop: 1- The trainer is very knowledgeable and can answer any question related to the topic. 2- I suggest that the next NGS training to be as a project-based learning workshop instead of sending theoretical information and YouTube videos via Skype. In other words, the training is better to be on a project related to the topic, and the trainer sends tasks gradually to the participants to be performed daily, then Q&A session for every task to answer all doubts. Briefly, like last year Drug discovery technology workshop which was very interesting and amazing.
International Islamic University Malaysia
Overall it was good. Bioinfo/analysis part was a little difficult to understand. The sessions would have been better if they have audio than text. That would have been more interactive. But very informative overall..for a starter.

I found the workshop very helpful as it will not only help in my PhD but also in future endeavours. Devadrita Dey Sarkar made many of doubts cleared in very easy way. Overall I found the workshop enlightening and helpful for me.
SRM University, Haryana, Centre for Drug Design Discovery & Development (C-4D)
The course contents and the tutor who taught are really good. I would like to mention that a video tutorial would have been lot better along with chat on Skype(to clear doubts), like the coursera workshops. It s really good to know that the tutors are extending their support to clear doubts if any, even after the workshop. Thank you for all the support.
CDFD
Many thanks for providing the opportunity to learn something new in such an easy way. I have one suggestion though, that you could schedule the classes for the same time for all students with an interactive chatting manner. Thank you for the pleasant experience.

The training programme is very useful for developing basic knowledge on Protein modelling and interpreting the Molecular Dynamics mechanism. Overall the institution is very cooperative and supportive, especially, Yash sir. Thank You
DEPARTMENT OF ANIMAL BREEDING AND GENETICS, COLLEGE OF VETERINARY SCIENCE AND ANIMAL HUSBANDRY, ORIS
I decided to join this workshop in order to get hands on experience in molecular docking. We are using network pharmacology based approaches to scientifically validate the Ayurvedic medicinal plants and formulations. In that we use docking as a validation tool for the data generated. This workshop was helpful in that aspect to get the hands on exposure. The positive things about the workshop were (1) one on one training that gave opportunity to understand the lessons well and clear the doubts, (2) introduced different tools/software that gave an idea how to select them based on the application and (3) the trainers showed the patience to clear the doubts. I felt it would have been excellent if the theory part was explained in a proper and organised way which was weak at many places. Also felt that it would have been useful if you had provided some video links to refer after the course hours. Also have the opinion that the fee of INR. 17000 only for modelling and docking was higher. Altogether it was a nice experience for the last 20 days and I thank all the trainers and the BD team! Wish the BD team all the best in your future endeavours!!!
Savitribai Phule Pune University
The Molecular Dynamic Simulation (MDS) training session was clear, well organized. Advantages: --The trainer was accurate in time. --Most of my questions and queries were clearly answered. Disadvantages: --The MDS outcome interpretation has not been explained clearly. --Also, the fee of the workshop is very expensive from my view. Comment: In overall, I am pleased with the workshop and I highly recommend this workshop to other colleague.
University of Khartoum, Faculty of Pharmacy
The online training for drug discovery has been an amazing experience for me. Its easily accessible and one can be a part of the training from any part of the world because it is conducted online. Understanding the basics of how actually molecules are selected to be in the run of being a potential drug in the future is all I ever wanted to learn and explore, and Biodiscovery group made it possible.
