CSIR-India has announced the names of Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize for Science and Technology 2014 winners. Congratulations to all the deserved winners.
- A news report with the names of the winners here.
- Official website of the prize.
- Prize announcement.
- About the man after whom the prize is named.
- Something that struck me as interesting was that not even one of the 10 prize winners works for a university. This only further highlights the dismal condition that the research activities of our universities is in. One can only hope that the decision makers that announce and that present these awards are taking note.
- A little Google search on the performance of Indian Universities vis-a-vis SSB award got me to this interesting write-up at Current Science. Critical point of the article is the figure below.
