The Centre is one among the leading institutions in the country for higher learning and research in frontier areas of science and engineering. The Centre has also been recognized as a Deemed University. During the year, significant contributions have been made in the research areas of materials science, theoretical physics, molecular biology and genetics, evolutionary and organismal biology, chemical biology, engineering mechanics and geodynamics. The Centre has witnessed a phenomenal growth in various academic activities. Many of the new activities have stabilized and have made an impact on both research and potentially useful applications. The student strength is increasing steadily adding to the vibrant atmosphere in the campus. Several of the Centre’s Faculty have done extremely well during the last year and have been decorated with prestigious awards including the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize of the CSIR. It is extremely fortunate that the Centre is being considered as one of the potential places for taking up an academic career by young researchers. Many new faculty members have joined the Centre over the last year and with this increase in young faculty members, we hope to expand our research and academic efforts in the years to come. Prof. C.N.R. Rao’s Education Foundation has generously donated funds to establish a Hall of Science which will be named as “Prof. C.N.R. Rao Hall of Science”. The Centre is also adding various infrastructural facilities to take care of the needs of various academic activities. In all these endeavours, continued encouragement and support of Department of Science and Technology is gratefully acknowledged. The publication statistics have shown very impressive progress and during the year 292 papers have been published in international and national peer reviewed journals. After obtaining the status of Deemed University, 42 students have obtained Ph D Degrees; 10 students M S (Engg.) and 6 students M S (Int. Ph D) degrees. While 9 students for Ph D and 5 students for M S (Engg.) degree completed all the academic requirements for the award of respective degrees during this year, 4 students have submitted theses for the Ph D degree which are under process. The student strength has been steadily increasing, keeping the academic activities as vibrant as ever. With the admission of 50 students for various programmes, the present student strength is 141. Several new initiatives like nanoscience and computational materials science have taken root in the Centre with substantial support from DST. Various infrastructural facilities have also been upgraded to cope up with the increased activities at the Centre. The proposal of the Centre for establishing an International Centre for Materials Science has been approved by the DST and the work has been progressing. A new programme of Integrated Ph D in Materials Science has been started from the academic year 2007-08 with an intake of 10 students. In addition to pursuing research in various contemporary areas, the Centre also has several Science Outreach Extensions and Fellowship Programmes. One such activity is the Summer Research Fellowship Programme for young students. During the year, 4,810 applications were received, out of which 120 were offered fellowships, in addition to 49 selective renewals from the previous year. This is one of the highly acclaimed programmes of the Centre and the students are very appreciative of the benefits, enabling them to get inspired towards

Narayan & Sons, B-88, Okhla Indl. Area, Phase-II, New Delhi Tel: 26385873 he Indian Council of Medical Research has made significant strides in its mandate of ‘Research for TBetter Health’. The Council has lived up to country’s expectations on all major fronts of its activity: research and development of vaccines and drugs for infectious diseases like tuberculosis, malaria, filariasis, HIV/AIDS, research in the areas of modern biology like molecular biology, genomics, bioinformatics, fertility regulation, cancer and other non-communicable diseases, consultancy and human resource development, national and international collaborations and biomedical informatics and communication. During the period under report, the Memorandum for the Expenditure Finance Committee (EFC) of ICMR has been approved by the Government of India and Rs.870 Crores have been allocated for the 10th Plan. The research activities will now be pursued with greater vigour as more funding would be available. To optimize resource utilization, the Council is using the Combined Approach Matrix being used by Global Health Forum for Health Research for setting research priorities in various disciplines. The Council continued to play an important role in detecting new and emerging infections in India like the Chandipura virus encephalitis in Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat and outbreak of mysterious fever in Siliguri.

It was registered as a Society under the Societies Registration Act on 24 April 1934. The Academy commenced functioning with 65 Fellows and the formal inauguration took place on 31 July 1934 at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore. On the afternoon of that day its first general meeting of Fellows was held during which Sir C V Raman was elected its President and the draft constitution of the Academy was approved and adopted. The first issue of the Academy Proceedings was published in July 1934. The present report covering the period from April 2010 to March 2011 represents the seventy-seventh year of the Academy.
