Amanpreet Kaur Virk (M.Sc.)
Shoolini’s research environment inspired me to pursue PhD in Biotech, which also opened new doors for me as a foreign intern at Lanzhou University, China.
Rajan Rolta (BTech/MTech BT)
I am grateful to Shoolini and my mentor for supporting me in filing nine patents during my B Tech and M Tech programs.
