Shodhaka- Training

Our Latest Online Training Sessions

June 2025: 'Shodhaka' announces another round of its popular online training programs for both basic and advanced data analysis in the omics domain, including the functional analysis of genes and proteins, along with related bioinformatics.

Feedback
A recent feedback email from a professor: "Hope you remember that I took computational (transcriptomics analysis) training from Shodhaka in 2021 ...... I must say your team is one of the best training teams I have ever experienced. I am sharing the paper with you for your kind reference. I sincerely thank you for your valuable support during this needy time. I hope to work with you and your team again in the future." Such positive feedback comments are frequently received by us. For example, another faculty member who was trying to learn NGS by attending multiple training programs at different places, wrote to us to acknowledge that this was the best program he had ever attended, and he could really learn the concepts well and begin the correct learning of skills.
