Finnish Universities and the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) are encouraging direct contacts and co-operation between Finnish and Indian faculty and staff, departments and research
institutions. In order to enhance joint research activities including seminars and conferences the
newly established Finnish-Indian Consortium is arranging a kick-off Symposium to launch its
activities. The First Finnish-Indian Joint Symposium aims at creating further co-operation in the
fields of Health, Drug Development and Diagnostics.
Academics and researchers from India and Finland are welcome to join us in creating new opportunities for joint research and education activities. The seminar is based of presentations of
participating researchers as well as on active discussions on future opportunities. The research
groups are also welcome to present their posters during the Symposium.
