Kolkata, 16th May, 2018:  —Dabur Research Foundation (DRF), signed a MOU with National Innovation Foundation (NIF) to work together on finding herbal insights for key therapeutic areas like chronic inflammation, metabolic disorders, hepatic diseases and diseases of the gut. The collaboration will span over a period of ten years to validate, develop and bring to market traditional herbal products.

Speaking on the collaboration, Dr. Manu Jaggi, Chief Scientific Officer, DRF said: “DRF has over two decades experience of developing herbal products using state of the art tools in GLP certified laboratories”. Both the organisations have already been working together over the last three years contributing in value addition, research and development of herbal practices.  With strategic inputs from NIF, DRF plans to undertake preclinical validation studies on herbal leads in state-of-the-art infrastructure at Sahibabad, UP, India”.
