The Kerala State Council for Science,
Technology and Environment (KSCSTE)
as the umbrella organization
of the research establishments
in the State, in its effort to
take stock of significant
research developments during
the year, organises the annual
Kerala Science Congress,
to revitalize R&D in the state
and to identifynew talents in scientific
research in Kerala.The 24th
session of the Kerala Science Congress (KSC)
will beorganized jointly by KSCSTE and
Rubber Board atKottayam during 29th to 31st January 2012.
Realising the critical role of Science and Technology
in socio-economic development,Kerala has made substantial
efforts to strengthen its science base through a number
of research and development initiatives. In almost every
key sector, whether it is agriculture,forestry, fisheries,
industry, transport, environment, energy, material sciences,
there are top class institutions undertaking research
relevant to the needs of the State.
Every sphere of science as well as the different
phases of research – basic, strategic, applied and
adaptive - are being addressed by the Universities
and the R&D institutions in the State.Being a state
with high population density and limited natural resources,
wise use of the resources and building up human
skills are essential.
The 24th Kerala Science Congress will have a number of
sessions for providing an opportunity for intense
interaction and knowledge sharing. General papers,
contest papers and posters in the identified subject
areas will be included. Particular thrust will be
given to encourage young researchers through Young
Scientist Awards and Children’s Science Congress.
KSC will also provide a platform for interaction and
exchange of ideas between scientists and
young researchers working in different parts of the country.
