Vision Statement: I would like to work with Open Science Contributors and Enthusiasts to increase awareness about the benefits of Open Science among the Indian Bioinformatics Community, especially to Students and Early Career Researchers, and to build a platform for learning through sharing the knowledge among the members so that the community could grow together.
