00:02In Gujarat's Ahmedabad, the Fridges Institute of Human Genetics, an NGO backed by government
00:08funding, hosts India's first national biobank for rare lysosomal storage disorders.
00:18Built over 22 years, it brings together patient samples and clinical data,
00:24helping researchers identify mutations, develop affordable diagnostics and advance indigenous treatments for life-threatening genetic diseases.
00:54It means that in many places, there are many mutations in the DNA, which is called lysosomal storage.
01:00This is the case.
01:04In this case, there is a first biobank that the treatment of these diseases,
01:12And with this, we will be able to help within our KVRIs, so the Biobank has a great help.
01:25Integrating DNA and clinical data, the Biobank helps identify mutations and develop solutions.
01:32With support from the Gujarat State Biotechnology Mission, researchers are working on low-cost diagnostic kits and advancing gene therapy
01:42for rare diseases.
02:02And in this case, we have made funding for our KVRIs, which has done research in Gujarat, and has done
02:11research in the Biobank.
02:14And in 2019, there was a special funding for India's molecular inversion probe-based sequencing.
02:34With treatments costing over 1 crore rupees annually, the focus is on affordability.
02:42The initiative is boosting self-reliance and strengthening Gujarat as a hub for genetic research and medical innovation.
02:59to fill out the name of KVRIs, the BIOBAN.
02:59While the Ramach has done research, the outcome of our KVRIs is a core working goal of the world.
03:00You can often write and write and write.
03:01You can remember Professor KVRIs and you can write and write for your question.
