After the strong response to the Biosciences Summer Program over the years (2019–2022 and the recent relaunch), we are bringing back a focused Winter edition, this time jointly with Anvaya Biotech.
This is a 6-day live online program designed for students who want more than textbook biology. You’ll do actual experiments at home, work through real techniques used in molecular biology, forensics, and bioinformatics, and get a clearer picture of what studying life sciences actually looks like after Class 12.
About the Partners
SHRM Biotechnologies (Kolkata) has been training students in biotechnology and life sciences since 2006. Kunal Vora started the company to address the gap between classroom theory and practical lab skills. Over the years, SHRM has worked with thousands of college and high-school students through skill training, research projects, and the summer programs many of you (or your seniors) may already know.
Anvaya Biotech (Bhopal), founded by Dr. Lavanya Bhagavatula, focuses on concept-first, hands-on biotech education and research training. Their approach emphasises understanding the “why” behind techniques rather than just completing experiments – something that becomes especially useful when students later face competitive exams or research work.
This Winter Program is a joint effort. SHRM and Anvaya faculty will handle different sessions, and I’ll be taking the final day on career and college guidance.

Who is This For?
Students who are curious about biology but want to see whether molecular biology, microbiology, forensics, or bioinformatics actually interest them. The program is deliberately practical so you can experience the work rather than just hear about it.
Many students who did the earlier summer batches used the experience while deciding between pure sciences, biotechnology, forensic science, or medical pathways.
Feedback from Earlier Batches
We have collated the feedback and screenshots from this year’s summer program. Common points included the hands-on nature of the sessions, the faculty’s clarity, and the usefulness of the final career guidance day.
