Bactrian camels: wild and domestic genome
Bactrian camels: wild and domestic genome Movie illustrating life of wild and domestic bactrian camels. The movie initially shows a flock of wild bactrian camels in Mongolian Wild Camel Protection Area, Altai province, Mongolia. The second part of the movie depicts ethnic Mongolian herders with their domestic bactrian camels in Alshaa aimag, Inner Mongolia, China. - Bactrian camel genome holds survival secrets Scientists are unpacking the genomic tricks that help camels to live in harsh conditions.

OSDD is a CSIR led team India Consortium with global partnership with a vision to provide affordable healthcare to the developing world by providing a global platform where the best minds can collaborate collectively endeavor to solve the complex problems associated with discovering novel therapies for neglected tropical diseases like Malaria, Tuberculosis, Leshmaniasis, etc.OSDD is a translational platform for drug discovery, bringing together informaticians, wet lab scientists, contract research organizations, clinicians, hospitals and others who are willing to adhere to the affordable healthcare philosophy. It is a concept to collaboratively aggregate the biological, genetic and chemical information available to scientists in order to use it to hasten the discovery of drugs. This will provide a unique opportunity for scientists, doctors, technocrats, students and others with diverse expertise to work for a common cause. The success of Open Source models in Information Technology (For eg, Web Technology, The Linux Operating System) and Biotechnology (For eg, Human Genome Sequencing) sectors highlights the urgent need to initiate a similar model in healthcare, ie, an Open Source model for Drug Discovery. Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (www.csir.res.in) India is one of the largest publicly funded research organizations in the world. CSIR has played a key role in the development of industry in India by providing them with technologies. In particular, it ...From:osddvoicesViews:6 0ratingsTime:04:11More inScience Technology
