As we are all aware India has one of the fastest growing and largest economies in the world. The economy of India is the tenth-largest in the world by nominal GDP and the third largest by purchasing power parity (PPP) (see here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Indian scientists are not short of money. They have a space program (Indian Space Research Organisation<\/a>) as well as a nuclear arsenal.<\/p>\n

On that note, Great Britain will be phasing out financial aid to India by 2015, instead focusing on technical assistance (BBC News<\/a>). To me personally, that makes sense and will be of benefit to both Indian and British scientists.<\/p>\n

The IOP Report<\/strong>
\nThe Institute of Physics (IOP) have written a report on India.<\/p>\n

For today\u2019s leading physicists in India, money for research is thankfully not in short supply. But as this Physics World special report makes clear, what India currently lacks is a critical concentration of highly capable scientists who can really make the country a world leader in research and boost the nation\u2019s innovation. This special report shows, however, that India is starting to tap the country\u2019s true potential through a series of bold educational initiatives and novel research facilities. I hope you find this report stimulating and please do e-mail your comments to pwld@iop.org.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
