After two years of work, we’ve made an AI Scientist that runs for days and makes genuine discoveries. Working with external collaborators, we report seven externally validated discoveries across multiple fields. It is available right now for anyone to use. 1/5
Growing up in the 80s and 90s, there was a group of research scientists who went beyond their ivory towers, grants and h-indices to popularize science among kids.
Jayant Narlikar, Yash Pal and Girish Karnad (not a career researcher) did no less than Carl Sagan or Bill Nye (not a career researcher) to get a lot of kids interested in science.
That era is long gone. We are now in the era of shiny astrology apps and art of living.
🚨Plant Biotech EXCLUDED from ARS 2025!🚨Despite its key role in food security, climate resilience & crop innovation, ICAR has sidelined Plant Biotech from 8 years This neglect is unacceptable! We urge authorities to take action
#ReviseARS2025withAgriBiotech#ARSneedsAgriBiotech
🌿 Plant Biotechnology = Future of Agriculture 🌿
📌 Food Security ✅
📌 Disease-Resistant Crops ✅
📌 Climate-Resilient Farming ✅
Yet, ICAR has given ZERO seats for ARS 2025 Is this how we treat agricultural innovation? 😡
#ReviseARS2025withAgriBiotech#ARSneedsAgriBiotech
No ARS seats for Plant Biotechnology in the last 8 years! Despite advancements in agri-biotech, talented researchers are left without opportunities. ensure fair chances for all. Biotech deserves. @ASRB118121, @DrSanja87281635, @icarindia, @AgriGoI, @hpathak_icar, @ICAR_NIPB

‼️Attention Agricultural scholars‼️
Agricultural research is the backbone of our food security, yet funding disparities leave many #agrischolars behind.
This is the example of the unfair decision towards #agriculturalstudents It’s time for equal support in all fields @icarindia
Where's our hard earned money ? @icarindia! 2 years' worth of arrears erased with a single sentence. What about accountability? (WEF 15th Oct 2024) #BoycottMemorandum Who benefits from this move?" This is a hard slap for researchers who are working for Agricultural development
