The Biological Research and Innovation Network (BRaIN) is a hobby group under the Science and Technology Council, Student's Gymkhana, IIT Kanpur. We are a group of Biology enthusiasts with interests in different areas in Biology including Molecular Biology,Genetics and Evolution,Botany,etc. We organise a number of lectures and workshops with the help of the faculty at IIT Kanpur as well as guest lecturers from across the country. We also undertake different projects during the semester as well as during the holidays.
The objective of this competition was to construct your own superhero and explain his/her superpowers using plausible biology concepts.
