   A workshop on “ Foldscope as a research and diagnostic tool for Animal Parasitic Disease” was organized by the Animal Disease Research Centre, Guru Angad Dev Veterinary &amp; Animal Sciences University, Ludhiana under the aegis of ongoing project “Use of Foldscope for diagnosis of parasitic disease with emphasis on canine zoonotic parasites under Human Animal Interface” sponsored by Department of Biotechnology, India.
   <br/>
   Dr. K.S. Sandhu, Sr. Scientist cum In-Charge ADRC highlighted the role of A.D.R.C. in providing disease diagnostic services to farmers of Punjab state and importance of Foldscope in on the spot diagnosis.  The workshop began with the inaugural speech by Dr. P.S. Brar, Dean COVS, GADVASU.  A total of 25 participants enrolled in the workshop, including 15 post graduate students from university and 10 participants from MCM DAV College for Women, Chandigarh which is also the Twinning Partner for the above mentioned project.

   There were two phases of the workshop: Lecture Session and Practical Session. Lecture Session comprised of the presentations on the utility of foldscope as a diagnostic tool for parasitic disease by Dr. M.S.Bal  followed by an informative lecture on the use of foldscope as a novel approach in diagnostics by Dr. C.K.Singh, Sr. Vety. Pathologist &amp; Head, Dept. of Veterinary Pathology.  Dr. Geeta Mehra, Head, Dept. of Food Science, MCM DAV College For Women, Chandigarh, also the Resource Person for the workshop, spoke on “ Reinventing  Scientific Temperament using Foldscope as a tool in which she explained comprehensively the multidisciplinary use of foldscope in  various fields including the field of food Science and Technology.
   <br/>
   The Practical session was conducted by Dr. Rashmi Sagar and Dr. M. S. Bal in which hands-on training regarding Assembly, Functioning and Application of the foldscope for diagnosisof parasitic diseases was given to the participants.
   <br/>
   Dr. J.P.S. Gill, Director of Research, GADVASU was invited as the guest of honour for the valedictory function. Dr. Gill commended the efforts for the successful completion of the workshop and suggested that the research projects involving such workshops should be encouraged as the outcome of such research helps in dissemination of the knowledge in the field areas
