Dear Editor,

Science and Nature both are correlated to each other. We can’t perform any scientific experiments without depending on Nature. Whatever experiments we perform in our laboratories are somehow related to Nature. North-East India is blessed with diversity of natural resources and human resources. We can apply our knowledge for inventing different sustainable techniques. In the field of life sciences, “BioNE” is playing a tremendous role by providing a platform to the budding scientists. As quoted by Barry Commoner (American Biologist), “The proper use of SCIENCE is not to conquer NATURE but to live in it”. BioNE, an initiative of the team BARBONE, CVSc, AAU, Khanapara, Guwahati, Assam, is the perfect platform for students like us to gain knowledge and for sharing of knowledge by researchers across NE, India and globally. This E-zine is easily accessible to everyone as we are moving towards digitisation; internet is available with almost everyone.

I wish to extend my deep appreciation and congratulate from my heart to all those who have contributed voluntarily their time and resources towards completion of every issue of BioNE.  As a budding Biotechnologist, I hope that the upcoming editions of BioNE will provide us more knowledge.

Your’s sincerely,

Gitumoni Deka
