India's'Science for All' Academy

摘要

In 1905, Sir William Osler, The Most Influential Physician Of His Time, Stepped Down from the medical faculty of Johns Hopkins University at the age of 55. At his farewell, he emphasized that the "effective, moving, vitalizing work of the world is done between the ages of 25 and 40-these 15 golden years of plenty." Many of us, who are old but still active like myself, may like to strongly disagree. But the power of the creative prime in this age group is irrefutable. Therefore, when the Global Young Academy was established in 2010 to catalyze the formation of national Young Academies that promote leadership by a country's most outstanding scientists aged 30 to 40 it was enthusias tically applauded by the international science community.
