Abstract

This paper evaluates the conditions for India's emergence as the leader in biotechnology. Biotechnology is a nascent industry, still more promise than reality. But its promise is extraordinary! If realized, it will revolutionize health-care. We will be able to give a blood sample to a biotechnology firm and receive back a list of diseases we are likely to develop, as well as a list of drugs that will prevent us from developing them.
