Objectives

1. Nano-Biosensor Development:

   – Develop advanced nano-biosensors for detecting water-borne microorganisms.

   – Implement established protocols for biosensor creation, emphasizing specificity and accuracy.

2. Joint Module Development and PhD Supervision:

   – Transform an existing post-graduate module into a joint initiative with the Indian organization.

   – Facilitate online participation of Indian postgraduate and PhD students via the MSteam platform.

3. Knowledge Dissemination:

   – Organize the 3rd International conference in September 2024, focusing on functional nanomaterials in industrial applications.

   – Conduct a one-day workshop in April 2024, bringing together experts to discuss nano-bio sensors and potential collaborations.

4. Consultation and Risk Assessment:

   – Conduct meetings with UK and Indian consultants to assess the risks and explore broader applications for microbial detection in food and water samples.

5. Global Collaboration:

   – Facilitate international travel for project leads, promoting collaboration between the UK and India.

   – Foster exchange and sharing of knowledge through cross-border interactions.

These objectives collectively aim to advance the development of nano-biosensors, promote collaborative learning through joint modules and PhD supervision, disseminate knowledge through conferences and workshops, and ensure effective risk assessment and consultation throughout the project duration.
