In light of the COVID-19 crisis, IUSSTF will not be soliciting applications for Bilateral Workshops/Symposia/Training Programs and Indo-U.S. Virtual Networked Centers at this time. As the situation evolves, we will post updates on our website and social media platforms.
Please note that IUSSTF personnel will be available over email during regular office hours to answer your queries. Until then, please practice social distancing and stay safe and healthy.
As its mandate, the Indo-U.S. Science & Technology Forum provides
an enabling platform to the scientific enterprises of the two
nations by supporting an S&T program portfolio that is expected to
foster sustainable interactions and long term collaborations by
promoting bilateral scientific and technological cooperation.
IUSSTF solicits proposals twice a year for Bilateral
Workshops/Symposia/Training Programs with an aim to disseminate
information and create awareness through substantive interactions
between Indian and American scientists and researchers from
academia, laboratories and industry with the explicit aim to
develop sustained linkages.
Knowledge R & D Networked Centers
Knowledge R & D
Networked Centers aim to encourage joint project implementation
amongst Indian and American scientists from Academia and
Laboratories on focal areas of thematic and knowledge research
through networking, thus paving the way to sustainable interactions
and developing long-term relationships. The Networked Center may
also provide opportunities for integrating research with education.
Public-Private Virtual Networked Centers
Public-Private Virtual Networked Centers enable Indian and American
scientists from Academia and Industry to work together to promote
pre-commercial R & D activities having potential towards applied
research and product development. These Centers are aimed to best
capitalize on the scientific and technological innovations in
translating ideas from the bench to the market place. However, no
financial support will be extended/provided to Industry
participants.
