DR. GAYATRI SABERWAL

My group researches the bio-pharma industry, both in India and abroad. Aside from studying the formation and nature of companies per se, we also analyze their patent holdings. We believe that such studies, both quantitatve and qualitative, will prove useful to policy making that is geared to supporting the industry.

In addition we have a series of general articles in Current Science entitled 'Bio-business in brief'. These articles highlight different aspects of industry, possibly of interest to academic researchers. We hope that over time they will help promote the engagement of academia with industry, vital to producing a knowledge driven industry, itself essential to ensure a healthier India.
