"The government of India has listed our university as the sixth top Indian applicant of patents from all Indian universities and institutes in its annual report for 2015-16," Shoolini University Vice Chancellor P.K. Khosla told reporters in Chandigarh.
He said the patent cell of the university had also been awarded jointly by Himachal Pradesh's State Council for Science, Technology and Environment and the government of India's Department of Science and Technology in 2016.
This cell is working in collaboration with the Himachal Pradesh Patent Information Centre, he said.
"Scientists at Shoolini University are focusing on cutting-edge areas of research such as drug development, diagnostics and therapeutics, water and effluent treatment, industrial enzymes and phytomedicines to harness Himalayan biodiversity," Khosla added.
