PakMediNet Discussion Forum : Medical Research in Pakistan : National Academy of Young Scientists
National Academy of Young Scientists (NAYS)
Every developed country in the world has societies and organizations dedicated to promote S&T among young scholars. In Pakistan there exist many student organizations since last 50-60 years, but unfortunately, none of them has the above mentioned objective.
Recently, some PhD scholars and PostDoc. scientists/academicians from many universities in Pakistan have started a platform (NAYS- National Academy of Young Scientists) to provide the young Pakistani scientists and engineers with a suitable environment dedicated to scientific collaboration and exchange of ideas & information related to further research, and technical discussion for the betterment & development of Science & Technology in Pakistan. Further details can be found at. www.nays.com.pk
NAYS platform is for academic purposes ONLY. It is supposed to fill the large gap of organizational setup between S&T scholars and the esteemed Scientific bodies at national level (e.g. Pakistan Academy of Sciences, www.paspk.org ; Pakistan Council for Science & Technology, www.pcst.org.pk ; and Pakistan Science Foundation, www.psf.gov.pk ). Additionally we are also trying to bridge the vast gap between academia and industry so that the research could be translated into useful products.
NAYS welcomes scientists and engineers engaged in postgraduate and doctoral level studies to join hands for this noble cause.
I request fellow scientists and engineers in the area of S&T, to join this community to strengthen the scientific activities in Pakistan.
