Purpose

An opportunity for visionary biomedical scientists to lead and nucleate a cutting edge research programme in India.

This scheme is for scientific leaders who already lead their own research laboratory/group, and wish to relocate from their current institution (in India or overseas) to a not-for-profit research institute or university in India.

The underlying philosophy in launching this fellowship is to replicate global standards of scientific excellence, and minimize disparities in scientific and administrative capacity, among research institutes and universities across India.
