Director’s Message
It is indeed a pleasure to put before you a comprehensive report of the activities and achievements of CSIR - National Institute of Science, Technology and Development Studies (CSIR-NISTADS), for the period 2009-2011. CSIR- NISTADS, with faculty members from a multidisciplinary platform, remains committed to policy research and communicating advising or publishing on various issues related to science technology innovation and society. Over the years, CSIR-NISTADS has emerged as a unique and important research institution of the country. It has also developed and strengthened its collaboration with similar institutions abroad. As the only national institute in this area of research, its vision is "To undertake research on policy, policy advisory and provide research support to advocacy and advice, and to serve CSIR and other national S&T agencies on science, technology, society and innovation challenges”. This Biennial Report reflects and highlights the major research projects, academic and research profiles of its faculty members, lectures and conferences organized during this period. The Institute reflecting its strengths in S&T policy research has initiated new efforts, such as ‘India S&T’ biennial-report series. It also keeps renewing its research focus in tune to the changing Indian as well as global S&T issues and systems. Innovation, which forms the base for current global economy, was thus the core concept for India S&T Report 2010-11. The report could identify: a) the nature and extent of innovative activities in the country; b) the lacunae in the innovation support mechanism; and c) S&T interventions required in the policy matrix to enable India to be in the forefront on innovation activities. CSIR-NISTADS, during this period, continued with and deepened inquiries into: scientists and science in organizations including in public research institutions; science capabilities of academic as well as non-academic scientific organizations; R&D in industries and industrial organization; issues on intellectual property rights; measurement of S&T outputs; evaluation studies on programs and organizations; S&T manpower and infrastructure; globalization and S&T including comparative policy research; technology and rural artisans; off-farm and agricultural innovation; S&T and geography including on regional development and on S&T and federalism; governance and innovation and S&T; public space and S&T; gender and science; green agenda and growth. The Institute, in short, is committed to generate and

disseminate knowledge related to scientific and technological innovation, creativity and their applications along with the policy implications. The Institute undertakes sponsored studies along with the academic and scholarly activities. During this period CSIR-NISTADS provided valuable additions to the pool of knowledge through: a) publications in the form of books, research papers, reports; b) organization and participation in national as well as international conferences, seminars, workshops; c) by delivering and organizing invited lectures; d) taking up in-house as well as sponsored projects and; d) conducting training programmes. In addition, the Institute tries to serve the CSIR, other national S&T, public and international agencies. CSIR-NISTADS is very grateful to the Research Council Chairman, Prof. S.K. Joshi and Prof. Ashok Chandra and the distinguished members for guiding the academic affairs of the Institute. We look forward for their continued support to enable CSIR-NISTADS to move forward and excel in the field of science and technology studies.
