HYDERABAD--India will create 50 new centers for life science and biotechnology research this year that will hire more than 500 scientists over the next 5 years. Buoyed by an economic uptick, the government will also create 1000 positions at the facilities specifically for young researchers. Due to budget restraints, India has not recruited new scientists for government in recent years. Science and Technology department secretary Valangiman Subramanian Ramamurthy, a nuclear scientist, called the new initiative "music for my ears."
