Brief Bio-data
L S Shashidhara obtained his
B.Sc. and M.Sc. (Genetics and Plant Breeding) in 1987 at the University of Agricultural Sciences,
Dharwad. He received his Ph.D. in 1991
from the University of
Cambridge, UK. After a period of post-doctoral work at the University of
Cambridge, he worked in National Centre for
Biological Sciences, Bangalore as a
visiting fellow. He joined CCMB in 1995.
