Dr Anandkumar was speaking at a panel discussion on the topic “Search for a New Molecule: Shift from Generics to Novel Drugs” organised at the BioSpectrum Excellence Awards 2023 ceremony in New Delhi on June 30.

He further said, “We are now finding reverse brain drain with India emerging as pharma and vaccine hub of the world. Experts from the bioclusters of the world are looking back at India.
