the Wonders of IBMBB&#8217;s Open Day Event in 2023 It was a day of remarkable exploration and discovery as the Institute of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology and Biotechnology (IBMBB) welcomed over 100 enthusiastic participants to the Open Day Event on October 20, 2023. This event, hosted within the IBMBB premises, offered a unique opportunity to share the marvels of biotechnology and molecular biology with the wider community. IBMBB was honored to have the distinguished presence of the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Colombo, Senior Prof. H.D. Karunaratne, who graced the event, adding to its value and significance. The Open Day was filled with engaging activities and insights, including: Laboratory Tours: Visitors had the privilege to step inside our state-of-the-art laboratories, witnessing firsthand the groundbreaking research that occurs at IBMBB. These tours provided a unique and intimate look at the remarkable work conducted by our researchers. Engaging Conversations: Our team of passionate researchers and educators engaged in thought-provoking discussions with participants. These conversations provided valuable insights into the dynamic and ever-evolving fields of biotechnology and molecular biology. Academic Pathways: We presented information about our academic programs and short training courses, guiding potential participants towards their dreams of pursuing careers in these dynamic disciplines. Our educational offerings aim to empower future scientists and researchers. Career Opportunities: Attendees had the opportunity to explore the diverse career prospects in the biotechnology and molecular biology sectors. The event also facilitated networking opportunities, allowing participants to connect with professionals in the field who already engaged with IBMBB. The success of this Open Day was made possible through the unwavering support of our dedicated academic and non-academic staff. Their commitment and hard work contributed to creating an event that truly showcased the exciting opportunities available in these fields. In addition to these enriching experiences, the Student Welfare Society of IBMBB organized a flash quiz competition for the participants, with more than 50 individuals participating. Winners were acknowledged with certificates, encouraging and celebrating their knowledge and enthusiasm. Furthermore, the Staff Welfare Society arranged a delightful food stall, enhancing the overall experience for our participants by providing a variety of delicious refreshments. The IBMBB Open Day Event in 2023 was a testament to the institute&#8217;s commitment to fostering an environment of learning, research, and community engagement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":144,"featured_media":7028,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"elementor_header_footer","format":"standard","meta":{"pgc_meta":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7012","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-home"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-05-18 20:53:25","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category"},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ibmbb.cmb.ac.lk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7012","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ibmbb.cmb.ac.lk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ibmbb.cmb.ac.lk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibmbb.cmb.ac.lk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/144"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibmbb.cmb.ac.lk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7012"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibmbb.cmb.ac.lk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7012\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7040,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibmbb.cmb.ac.lk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7012\/revisions\/7040"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibmbb.cmb.ac.lk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/7028"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ibmbb.cmb.ac.lk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7012"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibmbb.cmb.ac.lk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7012"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibmbb.cmb.ac.lk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7012"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
