The scientific enterprise in India has grown dramatically in the past few decades, with research emerging as a viable and important career option for students of science. The country thus has a large population of young scientists in the early stages of establishing their independent research careers. While this demographic is arguably the most important group that will determine the future of scientific research in India, their status and concerns are poorly understood. The Indian National Young Academy of Sciences conducted a national survey to better understand and present the challenges faced by them. Through a structured questionnaire, we sought the views of researchers below 45 years of age. Here, we summarize the responses from 854 participants across multiple early career stages. We highlight key challenges faced by these scientists in establishing an independent research career, and suggest steps to address them.Keywords

Bakery products have become popular in India as evidenced by two fold increase in their production in recent years. Although wheat is consumed in many forms, including noodles, biscuits, cakes and ready-to-eat cereals, bread has established itself worldwide as a major staple and convenient food, especially when made according to regional preferences.- Effect of Processing and Storage on the Changes in Carotenoids, Lipids and Minerals of Instant Bengalgram Dhal and Kabuli Channa (Cicer arietinum)

Quick cooking, dehydrated convenience foods have proved very useful for combat pack rations for Armed Forces because of their lightness and easy cooking characteristics. These are prepared by cooking, roasting or frying followed by drying and blending various ingredients with seasoning. Previously, attempts were made to prepare quick cooking dhals (dehusked and split pulses).- Storage Properties and Acceptability Trials on Refined Groundnut Oil as a Substitute for Hydrogenated Oil
