At the outset we thank all applicants to the Freshwater Phycology course to be held in October 2013. We received an overwhelming response. The screening of the applications is taking more time than we had anticipated. We are currently processing all applications and we will be announcing the first list of participants shortlisted along with those who have been shortlisted for a waiver. An email will be sent to all candidates informing about the decision. For the selected candidates details of course, payment of course fees and other logistics will be included.
