THEBIOPOWER is a student organization running by the students of life sciences at University of Rajasthan, Jaipur, India. The organization was founded on August 2005 and successfully running various activities for the career building of student in scientific Research. We are providing career guidance, counsling, literatures, lecturenotes and various other supports to the students of undergraduate and postgraduate level. Our main target is students from backward and remote area of india, which donot have access to the highly qualified faculty and high-tech resources. We want to encourgae systems biology education in india.
