Biology Webinar Series 2020
In the month of August a webinar series was organized by IOBSL covering diverse topics related to biology. The webinars were held via Zoom and replaced the traditional guest talk series annually organized by IOBSL. The series was live streamed via the Institute’s Facebook page, and was therefore able to capture a wide audience. The Biology Webinar Series 2020 was sponsored by Bank of Ceylon.
