In the photo Ravi Dharmarajan of Indus Instruments is discussing Pro-Curo Software with a senior scientist from from the National Bureau of Plant Genetics Resources  at the international conference on “Low Temperature Science and Biotechnological Advances”  in New Delhi, India. Two posters relevant to cryopreservation by researchers using our Kryo machines were presented.  Firstly a case study on "Cryopreservation of Spermatophores in Shrimp" by Drs Selvakumar and Munuswamy; and also  "Cryopreservation of Sperm in Cobia" by Drs Dhanasekar and Munuswamy.

The conference saw the meeting of many well known scientists and researchers from various public and private sectors in the field of agriculture, veterinary, aquaculture, fishery, and medicine to discuss recent advances and their practical applications via low temperature science - including cryopreservation. The show took place on April 27-30, 2015 and was jointly sponsored by the  Indian Council of Agricultural Research in collaboration with the National Academy of Agricultural Sciences, The Society for Low Temperature Biology, and the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew both from the UK.
