The three previous editions – detailing the accomplishments and capabilities of leading research centres, institutes and universities in the developing world – have proven to be valuable sources of information, especially in efforts to promote South-South and South-North cooperation in science. We trust that this volume will be equally useful. In addition to the profiles, we have included several tables and indexes that group the institutions. The tables and indexes are intended to help users quickly access aggregate statistical information related to specific fields, regions and institutions in Least Developed Countries (LDCs). This fourth edition of Profiles of Institutions for Scientific Exchange and Training in the South contains a total of 485 institutions in 65 countries, including 28 countries categorized as scientifically lagging according to an index developed by TWAS. About 85 percent of the institutions in the current issue were also included in volume three.
