Research Culture in Indian Universities

A discussion at nonoscience.

There is something missing here, something very simple, impalpable, profound, sacred. There is a void which can only be felt and hard to demonstrate. You can call it "scientific fervor", "fire in the belly," "passion" or use any other overworked word, which ultimately is only a word and not the real thing. Perhaps every great university of yore must have had it in abundance.
